  • guyz.. m using this phone for over 6 months now and though i would call is a good buy ,the OS ie Windows 6.5 really sucks.I am waiting to get my hands on Windows 7 but overall this phone is a good buy. Yes the screen may not allow you to work meticulously and the battery also dies very soon but at the end of the day it is a nice phone at an very affordable price tag. Acer rocks...........

  • I bought E101 in Nov 2009. The sad part is, I haven't got an opportunity to use it for a day till now. It has list of issues. It is there with service center ( Sagar E Technologies, Indiranagar, Bangalore) ever since I bought it. I have given to them 4 times till now. Every time that I gave, they kept the hand set for almost 1 month and returned it by introducing additional problem (without fixing the original problem). It is more than six months that i bought this hand set, it is still lying at service center without any resolution. Please do not buy any handset of Acer. They are no were closer to any of their competitors.

  • I lost my stylus. Trying to look for an e101 stylus. The exact type because i want it to fit into the phone slot. Any one have a clue?

  • pleas can u tell what the diffrent between 100 and 101 and 1oo its 3g and cheaper

  • i have purchased this phone few days back...it is working perfectly fine.. nice speed..no hangups easy to use .... but it has some faults message never close completely u ll have to close them from task manager... INTALL core player for increassing the sound ..... one ques ? how can i change the message tone or the volume ..default v low..... battery is also bit weak .... but overall it a gud phone value for money .

  • This is really waste phone, with in 4months i went to service center 4 times, There are lot of software & hardware problems, I faced these problems in my E101 mobile Max sound in phone is very less , OS getting corrupted 2 times and now touch Screen not working completely.

  • vandana, you purchased this phone recently thats why your comments are like that, use it for around 2 months you will realise that this is the worst phone you have choosen.

  • guys let me know does this phone has proximity sensor or what happens when the calls comes, does it takes the input from screen just like htc touch

  • should i buy this phone or not... i have 2 options nokia 5230 or acer e101...which one is better choice?

  • This is my first foray into Windows Mobile Phones as such. My opinion about Win-Mo phones was not too good to say the least!! The Good: Rs. 9000/- (With bill !!) Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional !! Very light weight phone Large Screen with decent visibility Full fledged Pocket Office Fast Processor (Could have been faster though ;) ) Flawless Activesync!! (Push-mail ROCKS!!!) Gmail and Hotmail services setup in a jiffy!! Conversation view for SMS as well!! Hand writing recognition is the best that i have seen (running mind you!!) IPod style Jog Dial ;) (Although it suffers from over sensitivity) Dedicated hardware button to toggle Silent and General Modes The best Speaker Phone yet.. The Bad: 2MP camera Memory Card is NOT provided in the box Touch screen becomes un-responsive at times :( No T9 support (Yes.. yes I know it is a qwerty, but everyone needs a spell checker now and then!) Obviously No Wi-Fi or 3G Does not have a "Recent Contacts" list when sending messages.. Phonebook here i come :( The Ugly: The battery really DIES when Activesync is on :( (1/2 a day max) Single Port for Headset and Charging (A real pain with this battery) Haven't been able to decipher whether this set has a Landscape QWERTY or not :( Most of the times "Back" takes you all the way to the Home screen :( Bluetooth really acts up (Not able to use it consistently) Verdict: Overall this is an excellent phone for the Price paid. I would be happier if there was a better battery option!

  • should i buy this phone or not? i want it for my business purpose. interstd kinda in unlimited calls and phonebook, and office suite. battery and wlan is no problem for me.

  • should i buy this phone or not??? battery and wlan is no problem for me. how is pc suite for this phone, rest other featurs i hve seen. and am much interested in its more office features as i want it for my business purpose. kindly suggest clearly.

  • guys please note this is a buiness phonenot a multimedia phone

  • this has a touchscreen of resistive type , a terrible touch technology i got it for 11000 from retail and then after a 1 day nightmare i exchanged for a samsung monte .nothing can beat a samungas it has a capacitive screen and gives a much better touch experience ... but acer is twice as advanced in technology and ...... bad touch experience . so choose wisely .

  • Got one yesterday, it is the most complicated phone I have ever owned. You have to use the stylus, it is long winded to use and I hate it. Will be putting it on ebay in the next hour. Do not buy it, its terrible to use but looks great.

  • ok, i have the nokia 5800 xpress and I hate it. It is ALWAYS freezing, and has not been a very good phone for me. My friend told me that I DONT want the acer e101. need to know some other opinions about this!

  • how can i personalize my message alert tone pls help me...

  • try flicking the mute switch on the side of the phone

  • Im a potential Buyer of this phone. Someone asked a question how much GB Sd card it can support I heard from the sales man it can support upto 16 GB.

  • From today morning i m unable to hear voice nor the other person talking to me hear my voice. What may the problem. Kindly help.

  • does anyone else have trouble charging this phone from a standard 12v mini usb car charger? I have three of these for my guys and they all cannot charge via this method. Currently they are using xda in car chargers but surley this shouldnt be a problem? Also, has anyone had the issue where they cannot recieve calls if the battery is only at 2 bars? I am able to make calls and send and receve data, but not receive calls. Any ideas?

  • Even i have faced the issue of battery draining out fast. I charge it at night for about 2 hours and by morning it shows me about 60-70%, i have my GPRS turned off but still shows that much of battery drain though at night i am not using the phone. Acer should do something about this.

  • very great phone EXCEPT:- .Battery backup .network .service

  • model is good but the company should add some more features in it!!!!!it's still incomplete...

  • i have an acer and a 5800 ... and 5800 it's much better than acer ... from all the view points ... about the sound of the music 5800 it's louder ...

  • how u r charging (ie;full night or ur own way)

  • The phone is very good but incomplete due to non WiFi.

  • Yes, out of 4 battery indicator bars first 3 bars goes off very soon, but the last one goes very long. Indicator make users panic otherwise battery backup is good.

  • does acer mobile hve a good pc suite

  • if anybody can tell me how to cancge the language of my phone acer to english?i didn't find a way

  • Well the battery drains because of 2 things: 1: The Network Light always search ( Which is there in every phone) 2: There will be some process going on in Back ground Like in Windows you can't see it, Due to this the battery will drain lightly. 3: If Any application is Running then also battery drains. ( Like Blue tooth, WI-Fi, SMS or Outlook etc) To Over come with this problem Reset the device once in a Day.

  • i think u should decrease the brightness of the backlight...see to it that all programs are closed or not using task manager. its screen is of 3.2 inch + processor of 500mhz so it consumes some extra battery... My cell works fr around 1 n half day..

  • I also purchased this phone, but feel that the battery drains off pretty fast. If i charge it full at 11 PM, then it is almost down to 70% in the morning without it being used at night. i feel there is some problem. Any siggestions on this?

  • well its a really nice phone...bought it 2 weeks back....its user friendly,great looks,really nice scroll wheel... according to me there is only 1 prob that its not a 3G phone... Those planning to buy it , just close ur eyes n go for it...

  • very good phone i think one of the best buy in the current scenario.

  • does it have accelerometer?

  • Anyone will sense this is posted by a Asus fan/employee & ignore the comments...

  • Worst battery,no WIFI, no gps maps,very bad performance@11000/- dont even gift it to somebody orelse you will spoil your relationship as I have., better go with asus p552w @12000/-

  • Nokia 5800 is a music edition of Nokia & Sony Ericsson. ACER is master in personal computer

  • Can anyone let me know the clarity of music compared other phones like Nokia 5800 or Sony.

  • I agree the ENGINE bay is good. But the real fact that everyone is loving it, is for its big screen & responsive wheel. Since my usage type is COMPLETELY different from your usage, I slated it in 4.5 points out of 10. I do that for all mobile phones & mobile companies pay me to assess their products. Hope you have got the point. In case you are interested to go in TECHNICAL details please do let me know.

  • do u know wats the expandable memory for BeTouch 101??? as you said using sony ericsson kind of headphones will result in good music, but does this phone support sony's headphones???

  • cheap and best winmo handset i guess but lack of 3g and wifi is a big blow , even nokia 5800 is a better choice with only the os being the problem

  • guys its the best phone at 11k with all features including gps, wm6.5, decent battery backup is really good touch phone, big screen with stylus

  • max 32GB expandable and they do not provide it. You will have to purchase but it is just around 400 buks for 4 GB card.

  • NO WIFI & 3G for a smartphone launched in 2009!!!?? comeeeeee onnnn ACER!!! It really sucks both E101 & 100 for such a price, I would prefer to stick with my old Q-tek 9100 :)

  • hey priyanka, the phone's scroll pad is similar to the iPod multimedia player scroll pad, but this one can act as a fourway navigation key and the middle button as OK button. its pretty cool.. try it out.. i thnk its a little pricy with no 3g or wifi... if no 3g atleast wifi shuld have been there...

  • any idea whether the scroll pad is like an accelerator or touch sensitive or both

  • Can u tell us what is the memory card limit in this phone? I mean to say, 2GB / 4GB / 8 or 16 GB? And are they providing any memory card with this phone?

  • What is the memory space for this phone?! I mean..how much GB space can be stored on this phone? And can i watch videos and listen to music on this phone? Oh..most importantly : Will i be allowed to use youtube on this?! With no problem at all?

  • no it have jog dial, like ipod

  • When u connect your phone to computer,go to windows Explorer and u will find your smartphone in the line up click on it & u will see 2 disk type icons one for your phone's internal memory & 2nd one for your memory card now u can copy & past your content from PC to your Phone's memory card.

  • hello friends, I have bought new Acer E101 few days back,i thing its value for money product according to me,what u want more in 12k INR a 528 Mhz processor,256 RAM,512 storage WM6.5 etc,its performance is very nice,no hang,no wait,response well,look is very rich,i like interface,inbuilt software & Apps is very nice & updated,but battery is not very nice,its discharge soon,no phone cover,no pouch,no memory card from acer,sound is also not very promising its like ok type..we can make it better by using sony type headphones etc....but over all very nice.....we have to scarify some thing to get something.

  • What is the memory consumption? What is the size of mem card? can any one tell that?

  • Awesome phone... jus got it a few days back and i cannot stop loving it.. brilliant features.

  • can somebody please help how can i transfer songs into my acer E101 from computer plz help

  • I just got this phone for my dad. He was earlier using a Imate JAMA. Compared to the JAMA this phone has a much better screen and the speed is pretty fast compared to the JAMA. I paid 10.4k ~ $200 for this phone w/o contract and for that price it will beat the crap out of any competing HTC/Asus phone. It has a trackpad and not a scroll pad btw.

  • Is that a dpad or scroll wheel (??)

  • check out what a 3rd class phone can do,it can give 3.2"screen,wm 6.5,gps,256 mb ram ,528mhz processor.May be ur unable to pay even 12k dat is d reason ur telling itz a rubbish phone.the performance of this phone is truly fantastic.cant ask a better phone in 12k

  • dude check out the ram and the processor of this phone compare to htc p3400.u better dont comment on this phone, itz an amaziong phone.

  • No 3g, No Wlan & Camera which is from stable of HTC. In my opinion HTC P3400 is better choice than this phone. Except for bigger screen & WIN 6 no other frills. Batteryu life is however OK. 12K (in INR) is bit pricey.

  • third class, no 3g no wifi, 2mp cam @ 12k its rubbish

  • Apart from the camera and the fact that it doesnt has 3G, it looks a lot like samsung omnia.

  • nice phone, no Wlan, too bad

  • Bring on the Acers
