Acer Liquid Jade Primo review: Acer bets big on a Windows phone as your next PC

Acer's Liquid Jade Primo smartphone goes all in to replace your PC, bundling a phone, keyboard, mouse, and dock together. We put that daring concept to the test.

Continuum dock experience works very well ; Who would expect a keyboard and mouse to ship with a phone? ; Large, lovely AMOLED display

Pricey, and you're paying for hardware you may already own ; Camera flaws dampen consumer appeal ; Windows 10 Mobile's ecosystem is barely alive

Camera shootouts may be a thing of the past, but longtime Lumia owners take pride in the phone's photographic capabilities. While the Liquid Jade Primo's 21MP rear camera slightly outclasses the 20MP model on the Lumia 950, something about its lighting...

Acer Liquid Jade Primo Smartphone Review

A "pocket" computer? Acer's Jade Primo is a premium-range smartphone based on Windows 10 Mobile that can also be used as a PC thanks to the Continuum function. That also makes it a direct opponent for Microsoft's top models. The handset's wireless...

decent screen ; good performance ; dual-SIM ; camera good in daylight ; very fast WiFi ; docking station included ; good GPS ; Continuum ; USB-C 3.1

mediocre battery life ; casing does unconditionally not fulfill high-end claim ; limited app offerings ; camera's low-light quality ; no Windows Hello ; some features missing (fingerprint scanner, NFC, etc.)

The Liquid Jade Primo is Acer's first premium smartphone based on Windows 10 Mobile. A doubtless advantage is the option of using the smartphone as a PC thanks to Continuum, and Acer considerately includes the matching docking station right away. This...

Acer Liquid Jade Primo: A Windows Phone for .... Who Exactly?

If you're looking for a midrange smartphone and happen to like the Windows 10 Mobile platform, then the Acer Liquid Jade Primo could be for you. It's not such a bad little phone, and though its specs are modest, the performance for its price is...

Good Interface ; Bright display ; Includes dock, keyboard and mouse

Limited app selection ; Laggy graphics ; Doesn't come with USB charging cable, charger ; No support for quick charging

A bright display and Windows Continuum support make the Liquid Jade Primo an affordable option for Windows phone fans, but there's not enough here to attract Android or iOS switchers.

Acer Liquid Jade Primo

It's no secret, I wasn't the biggest fan of Windows 10 Mobile when it launched at the end of 2015. Despite oozing potential and featuring a number of nifty features, such as baked-in Cortana support and Windows Continuum, the OS failed to deliver.

Acer Liquid Jade Primo review

Is this just another Windows phone?

Decent camera ; Bright screen

Feels like a budget handset ; Sluggish performance

The spec sheet is good and the rear camera is excellent, but patchy performance and a cheap feeling design means the Primo struggles for a desirability factor.

Acer Jade Primo smartphone is a Windows 10 'pocket PC'

Acer reveals the Jade Primo.

The phone has been announced in Berlin today, but is still in prototype form, so details are thin on the ground. It's expected to go on sale in 2016.
