It looks like Europeans will have to pay a higher price

Some of you might remember our last week's report about Acer Jade Primo's outright price, as well as the fact that the smartphone might arrive on the market sometime in December.

The information was confirmed by Acer, but only for the Philippines where the smartphone will sell for around $410 outright.

Well, it looks like the smartphone will be a lot pricier in Europe where Acer France claims the Jade Primo will sell for no less than €500 off contract, WMPU reports.

On top of that, Windows Phone fans in Europe might not be able to get their hands on the Acer Jade Primo until early next year.

Acer Jade Primo is expected to arrive in some European countries in January 2016, but we don't rule out a slightly earlier launch in some regions.

It comes with additional accessories

The good news is customers who decide to go for the Jade Primo instead of Microsoft's Lumia 950 will also receive a Continuum dock, as well as Acer keyboard and mouse, completely free.

These accessories will be bundled in the sales package of the Acer Jade Primo, which is probably one of the reasons the smartphone's price is higher than expected.

Acer has already confirmed that Jade Primo will ship with Windows 10 Mobile operating system right out of the box.

The smartphone will be powered by a 64-bit 1.8GHz hexa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor, an Adreno 418 graphics processing unit and 3GB of RAM.

On the back, the Jade Primo will boast an impressive 21-megapixel photo shooter with autofocus, dual-LED flash and video recording while in the front there should be an 8-megapixel camera for state-of-the-art selfies and video calls.

There's no mention of the battery inside, but we do know Acer Jade Primo sports a 5.5-inch AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display that supports full HD (1080p) resolution. It also comes with 32GB of internal memory and we expect it to pack microSD card slot too.
