Acer Liquid E
$50 - $425

- Bigger than the iPhone or the Nexus One, but it's lightweight at 135g.

- Available in red, white or black gloss plastic finishes.

- Big 3.5 WXGA screen really pops.

- Includes Acer Spinlets and other Acer-invented add-ons.

- 5MP camera with geotagging.

- Heavy social media focus.

- Features an interesting design that sets it apart from other "me too" capacitive touchscreen smartphones.

- Speedy 768 Mhz processor.

- One of the things we like about Android is that you get nearly the same OS experience across a wide array of phone selections.
