[Q] Liquid e worth buying still or too old?

---

Am getting a really cheap brand new liquid e, is it still worth buying? does it have multi touch support? One thing that I am disappointed about is mini USB instead of micro, but its not a big deal if rest is a good package. How is direct sunlight legibility outdoors?

personally I think the Liquid E it the best phone for the price.

If you are from Canada you can pick it up new from kijiji for $250. Lots of ppl using their Fido $$ to get it for free and just selling it there (got one for my GF)

Performance wise its got the same processor as the Nexus one except its clocked down to 800Mhz for battery performance. 512 MB of Ram/Rom

Its upgradeable to Android 2.2 since October (Faster then a lot of other devices) and it will most likely get gingerbread seeing as acer is on top of the upgrade cycles (a guess).

I do notice that the touch screen can be a little iffy. The edges of the screen sometimes are really hard to detect and in general the whole touch screen could be a little more sensitive. But that can all be fixed by rooting your device and changing some values around.

Multitouch, Im not entirely sure, it has it but might have the same issues as N1/Experia when the two fingers come really close to each other.

Overall, Id buy this phone if i didn't have the money and weren't waiting for Nexus S to come out for AT&T/Rogers/Fido frequencies.

Hope that helps.

I got mine not too long ago, and for the price im moar than happy with it. Comunity support is really good. Maybe not so much here, but modaco has lots of different custom roms that can be flashed onto it. Really good phone for the price : )

I'm waiting for Rogers to replace my 3rd one. They keep failing. The battery life is horrible. I've been without a phone for a month now because they are back ordered.
