Acer X960

 

As we had expected, Acer has officially entered the smartphone arena in India with 5 phones from the Tempo Series to compete with the likes of Nokia, Blackberry etc. The phones unveiled at the presser yesterday were Acer DX900, DX650, X960, F900 and M900, all of them powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro.

DX900 is a dual-SIM phone that supports 3G as well as 2G connections. It has a 2.8-inch VGA screen, 3.2MP autofocus camera with LED flash, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 128/256MB RAM/ROM, GPS and 533MHz processor.

The DX650 does not offer dual-SIM functionality but has something to dual – its screens. One side has a nice 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen while the other side reveals the normal side of the phone with a small screen and alphanumeric keypad. Specs-wise, it again has a 533MHz CPU, same RAM/ROM as DX900, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Accelerometer and no 3G.

X960 is a normal looking smartphone bearing somewhat similar specs to DX900 sans dual-SIM. It has the same processor, screen size and resolution, RAM/ROM and GPS. X960 supports tri-band 3G, quad-band GSM bands and also offers 3.2MP camera with fixed focus, microSD card slot, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Acer’s custom UI dubbed as Shell v2.0

The M900 and F900 are of the same breed with few features separating each other. For instance, M900 boasts a physical QWERTY keyboard, 5MP autofocus camera with flash while F900 lacks physical QWERTY downgrades the camera to 3MP with no flash but adds a light sensor. Common features include 533MHz processor, 3.8-inch WVGA screen, microSD slot, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and accelerometer.

Acer has not revealed the prices yet but plans to release all the models by the end of this year.
