Acer Enters Smartphone Market

The Smartphone market is big, and as those of you who have read our reviews on the top smartphone offerings will know it is very competitive with pretty much all of the big mobile names laying claim to their own. But it is not often that a company that has not previously ventured into the phone market goes straight to the top but that is exactly what Acer are going to do.

On the back of their netbook success (particularly with the Acer Aspire One) they are moving into the slightly smaller mobile computing market and anticipation is high as this promises to be exiting. We can only assume that it will aim to compete with the top guns (such as the iPhone or HTC Touch HD) but whether it will have a touch screen, a QWERTY keyboard or a stylish design we just don’t know.

In fact we hardly know anything – what we do know is based solely on invitations to a press conference in Barcelona that have been circulating the internet which will take place on February 16th. However the tag line “the rhythm of your life” indicates as to the basis of the phone so we can expect it to have a smooth interface mixing different applications seamlessly, and probably to have music support.

But this is all speculation, but it is not long (14 days and counting) until it will be revealed and you can be certain that all eyes will be on the launch. All indications are that it will be good given Acers’ track record but their inexperience in the smartphone market may be their shortfall, but either way you can be sure to hear it first here.
