Acer Liquid S1:Review and first impressions

Acer held its showroom to present the products back in 2013. The occasion for the writing test in preview the phablet Acer Liquid S1. 
Earlier this month, Acer unveiled at Computex its  Liquid S1 . A phablet of 5.7 inches which aims to be one of the cheapest on the market and a direct competitor to the Galaxy Tab Samsung . 
5.7 inches wide and it looks very nice not to put in the pocket, but after testing, it enters a jean pocket without a problem. The Liquid S1 is described as a mid-range product. It has a quad-core processor MediaTek MT6589T1.5GHz,  1GB RAM , an 8GB of internal memory expandable via MicroSD card up to 32GB and a battery of 2400 mAh. The Liquid S1 does not support 4G not , shame because even if it is not really available in France, it tends to grow in the coming months. However, you can console yourself with the function Dual Carrier for the Liquid S1 proposes to use not one, but two SIM cards for greater speed.
The Liquid S1 is equipped with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean . As usual, Acer has minimized the effect of overlay to be as close to a pure Android. Only small novelty, which is quite satisfactory, it is the Float UI function , which is activated by pressing the Menu button. This allows you to launch an application and a "floating" application on the same screen simultaneously. It looks like the multi-window mode Samsung Galaxy Note 2 , but much more fluid. A good way to use 100% of the capacity of the screen.  
Next photo, this phablet offers the same as competitors: a sensor 8 MP autofocus camera with LED flash capable of recording 1080p videos . But what makes it different is the " Front Wide Shot ", the front camera has a 88 ° angle to take a picture with a very broad level. Another option, the Voice Shot is also very friendly. It allows you to shoot right in saying "cheese." Finally, the S1 has, like its competitors, the WiFi, Bluetooth, an FM receiver and a GPS.
The Acer Liquid S1 is available in Black Rock (black) or Classic White (white) at the price of 349 €.
