Acer Liquid Jade S Smartphone Review

While the design of the Liquid Jade S has been improved, the display panel on the device is the same as its predecessor – which is no bad thing.

The 5-inch screen keeps the 720p resolution – which means there is 294 PPI. This is a good figure to be at, as text is crisp and HD videos look detailed. Usually we do not see FHD displays until the RRP of the device is closer to £300 – so expecting anything more in terms of resolution would be unreasonable.

So – the Liquid Jade S has same resolution display as its predecessor. It also has the same IPS panel, which means viewing angles are very good. We did not notice any colour shift, so clearly the Liquid Jade S is continuing right where the original Liquid Jade left off in terms of its display.

Brightness was a problem for the phone's predecessor, and it remains so. Indoor use is all well and good, but the maximum brightness setting is just not quite up to scratch for use outdoors. It is no real surprise given the both phones use the same panel, but it just makes using the Liquid Jade S that bit harder.
