best Acer Android phones

Without support from all the main carriers that most other Android phone makers benefit from, even more conservative, affordable Acer Androids have their work cut out for them, commercially.

BARCELONA, Spain-Acer's new Liquid E1 is proof that an Android Jelly Bean handset doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg.

With the Stream, Acer is looking to change all this and, on the face of it at least, the handset boasts perhaps the most impressive specification of any Android phone on the market.

This new handset showcased at MWC 2013 may be on the petite side in terms of many Android smartphones, but the gadget manages to squeeze Android 4.1 Jelly Bean plus support for dual-SIM cards in its compact frame.
