After launching smartphones Acer Liquid E1, Liquid E2, Liquid S1 and Liquid Z2, the company has now launched the latest entrant Liquid Z3. The Acer Liquid Z3 is the fifth smartphone from the company and will be available in selective countries like Belgium, Netherlands, Ukraine, France, Spain, UK, Italy, Germany and Russia from mid-August at a starting price of €99.
