REVIEW: Acer neoTouch

Now Acer being a laptop manufacturer for so long can really afford to give the neoTouch their own homescreen, brand new Phonebook and Organizer app (called Agenda), along with a neat Preferences menu and Communication manager.

Basic features include a 3.8" 65K-color resistive TFT touchscreen, WVGA 480 x 800 pixels, Windows Mobile 6.5 with Acer Homescreen, Contacts, Agenda and Gallery, Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor, 5 megapixel auto focus camera with LED flash, geotagging, image stabilizer, VGA video recording, Quad-band GSM support, Tri-band 3G with HSDPA support, Wi-Fi with DLNA technology, Built-in GPS with A-GPS functionality, microSD card slot (up to 32GB), FM radio with RDS, Bluetooth and USB v2.0, 3.5mm standard audio jack, TV-out functionality, Ambient light sensor, proximity sensor for screen auto turn-off, Accelerometer sensor for automatic UI rotation, Smart dial, Office document editor, Full Flash support in the web browser (IE) and a top-notch audio output quality.

Of course there are some things that have not gone quite right with the mobile like not enough user interface customization, no camera lens cover, poor photo and video quality, microSD slot is under the back cover, no DivX/XviD video support out-of-the-box, no navigation software, even Google Maps is not preinstalled, no active stylus, high-gloss body panels are a fingerprint magnet and a poor ringing volume

Acer has had a pretty nice time being a leading laptop manufacturer and this reputation will definitely help neoTouch leading its way through to the mobiles market. This is a debut phone by Acer but looks good, at least by the features that have been announced.
