Granted, the Acer Liquid C1 is smaller than the Samsung Galaxy SIV or the iPhone 5 but it does have some features that ca potentiall make it a contender.

Our friends over at Yugatech recently had a chance to have a hands on with this device and have shared its specs:

  • 4.3? qHD (540 x 960) IPS LCD display @256ppi
  • Intel Atom Z2420 1.2 GHz
  • 1GB RAM
  • 4GB internal storage
  • microSD up to 32GB
  • 8MP AF camera w/ LED flash
  • VGA front-facing
  • WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Wi-Fi hotspot
  • HSDPA, 21 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps
  • Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP

  • Li-Ion 2,000 mAh battery
  • 127.3 x 65.5 x 10 mm

It’s also the first Acer phone to run on an Atom chip and overall, feedback on the device has been good in terms of both performance and looks. If that’s not enough to make you want to give this device a look, perhaps Acer’s historically cheaper pricing for their device may be enough to get you  to check it out at the very least.
