Marvelous Camera
Thanks to its voice-activated 13MP rear camera with F1.8 aperture, it can produce flawless pictures in any environment, even when the light is scarce. A front camera of 5 megapixels is also on board, to empower users to shoot their best selfie. The intuitive interface provides users total control over their cameras, from filters through exposure adjustment. Additionally, the Jade Z embeds a series of exclusive modes.
- Dual Shot lets users make a collage of simultaneous shots from the front and rear cameras for picture-in-picture and video-in-video,
- Bright Magic allows users to get brighter photos even under low light, as well as shooting 6 in a row and integrate them into a single brighter photo.
- Presentation Mode offers the possibility to capture and correct any screen shot, to export slides as .JPG, .PDF, or .PPT, choose the quality and mode (text, image, or image with text) that best fits users need and share presentations or screens instantly.
Ultra-Vivid Screen
The Acer Liquid Jade Z offers bright visuals both indoor and outdoor: the state-of-the-art Zero Air Gap display reduces reflections, and increases readability in sunlight while increasing the contrast. The new generation Corning® Gorilla® Glass delivers increased toughness and damage resistance with a 20% reduction in thickness if compared to the previous generation. It also grants superior resistance to deep scratches that can greatly damage or even break the display glass. Lastly, the special Read Mode feature protects the eyes by eliminating the blue-light emissions from the image processing engine.
Equally Beautiful inside
AcerEXTEND will enable users to take full control of their smartphones via cable or wirelessly using their Windows-based PC, typing with their keyboard, using drag and drop and rich sharing – taking the multitasking experience to the next level.

The Liquid Jade Z was created to be an elegant but wallet-friendly smartphone. It boasts beautiful curves and gives the eye an impression of elegance and grace. At 7.9mm thickness and weighting only 120 grams, the Liquid Jade Z is comfortable to hold and use even with one hand.
