  • Large 5,000mAh battery that easily lasts a full day
  • Ships with modern Android 14 software out of the box
  • Includes Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for improved screen durability
  • Affordable entry-level pricing suitable for basic users or children
  • Supports expandable storage up to 512GB via microSD

What customers don't like about Acer Acerone Liquid s162e4 (4GB + 64GB)

  • Dated MediaTek Helio P35 processor leads to limited performance
  • Display is limited to 720p resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate
  • Lacks 5G connectivity, supporting only 4G networks
  • No official water resistance rating
  • Extremely long and confusing product naming convention

Verdict

The Acer AcerOne Liquid S162E4 (4GB + 64GB) is an entry-level, budget-friendly smartphone that marks Acer's return to the mobile market. Key features include a large 6.52-inch IPS LCD display with HD+ resolution and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, a capable 16 MP main camera, a 5000 mAh battery, and decent 4GB RAM with 64GB of expandable storage. The main pros are its affordable price point and solid core specifications like the large display, ample battery capacity, and durable screen protection, making it a good value option for basic usage. However, the primary con is its use of a several-year-old MediaTek chipset, which raises significant concerns about its processing performance and overall speed compared to modern competitors.
