Acer Ferrari-and-Android Liquid E



Acer announces Ferrari-and-Android-powered Liquid E variant
So, what do you get when you cross one of the most powerful cars in the world, with one of the most powerful mobile operating systems in the world?

Red, apparently. A whole lotta red.

Acer has been Ferrari-fying their laptops for a great many years now, but this is their first Ferrari phone, and — more to the point — it’s the first Ferrari (and luxury) phone to have a decent OS behind it.

The crimson beast is packin’ the same specs as the unfortunately-named Liquid E — that is, Android 2.1, a 768 MHz Snapdragon Processor, a 3.5″ 800×480 display, Wi-Fi, GPS, 256MB RAM, 512MB ROM, and a 5MP autofocus camera — but comes packaged in a subtly different body.

Of course, the feature that matters most to any Ferrari fan — branding — isn’t missing, either. The bright red colour and Scuderia Ferrari logo are tastefully matched with Ferrari wallpapers, videos, and engine-noise ringtones.

Sadly, there is no release date or price just yet. Don’t expect it to be a bargain, but also don’t expect Versace prices, either.
