Famous cell phone manufacturers like Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson or HTC are expected to bring unbelievable novelties in the spotlight at the Mobile World Congress these days. But what you should know is that this year’s edition isn’t focused on these companies only.
Take Acer, for example, a computer manufacturer that unveiled four new smartphones: Acer M900, Acer F900, Acer X960 and Acer DX900. Part of the Tempo series, the four devices work with Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system, being the perfect solution for those who use mobile phones in both professional and personal purposes.
Acer M900, the flagship model, is designed “for all your communications on the go†and comes equipped with the following features: quad-band GSM connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz), tri-band HSDPA/HSUPA connectivity (850/1900/2100 MHz), Outlook Mobile email, Office Mobile, 3.8 inch WVGA touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash, GPS, FM radio, voice recorder, voice command, Acer Shell 2.0 user interface, G-sensor, 256 MB flash memory and microSD card support for expandable memory. Measuring 119 x 62 x 17.1 millimeters and weighing 188 grams, the device provides up to 5 hours of talk time and up to 160 hours of stand-by time.

The Acer F900, “developed to give total control over web browsing on the goâ€, comes with a 3.8 inch WVGA touchscreen, touch keyboard, a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash, GPS, FM radio, voice recorder, voice command, expandable memory, direct access to the applications you like most, 3.75G HSDPA/HSUPA and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Acer X960 is “an all-purpose tool designed for those who want multiple features without having to carry several devicesâ€, being provided with a high-resolution 2.8 inch VGA touchscreen, a five-way navigation button, GPS functionality, a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash and a camera placed on the front of the phone (for video conferences).

The DX900 “is the world’s first Dual-SIM smartphone to support both 3.5G (HSDPA) and 2.75G (EDGE)â€, which means that the first SIM works on quad-band and tri-band frequencies, while the second one works with the 900/1800/1900 MHz GSM bands.

As far as the availability is concerned, the company didn’t mention anything for the moment, but the four new Acer cell phones are expected to start selling sometime in the near future.
