From blog.clove.co.uk : "However, the F1 is a smartphone like no other. It does loosely relate to Formula One (if you use your imagination a little) because it has a sleek and clean design a bit like an F1 car, a super fast processor to offer the best performance as well as a range of other features that make the F1 that standout device from the new Windows Phone range.”

From best-mobile-contracts.co.uk : “The phone looks good and is quite pocket friendly in spite of its size. The phone is pretty slim when compared to phones such as the BlackBerry Curve. The black model with its glossy surface does stand out making it look both stylish but not over the top. The Acer F1 stands out from the other phones in Acer’s lineup in having the Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU.”

From cnet.com : “What's really interesting is the price, just 295 pounds (about US$480) before subsidies. That's really inexpensive for a WM6.5 smartphone with a 1GHz processor, 3.8-inch WVGA display and HSPA connectivity. In comparison, the Samsung Omnia II which comes with somewhat similar features (albeit a slower processor) goes for over US$600 unlocked.”
