MWC 2015: Novelties form Archos

Let's start with tablets. Archos 80b Helium is a novelty in the segment 8-inches. The tablet is based on a 1.5 GHz quad-core processor, supported by a gigabyte of RAM and managed by Android 4.4. The screen has a resolution of 1280x800 pixels, and the battery - 3600 mAh capacity. On board we have 8 GB for files, a microSD slot and two modest cameras: 2Mpx and VGA. One major advantage of the device is a low price and an optional LTE modem. Everything was closed in an attractive aluminum casing.

Archos 10.1 Oxygen is in turn a tablet with Windows. As it is clear from the name, it has a 10.1-inch FullHD display. Its heart is a 1.8 GHz quad-core processor, supported by 2GB of RAM. The tablet has 16 GB of memory, a 7000 mAh battery and a 5-megapixel rear camera with a 2 megapixel front webcam. The tablet will also appear in a slightly different version, not presented at the fair. There will be changed the screen and the memory. Unfortunately, the launch of this model is apparently shifted out of the MWC.

The third premiere model is another tablet with Windows: 8-inch Archos 80 Cesium. It also features a 1.8 GHz quad-core processor and 16GB of memory. It also has a gigabyte of RAM, a 4000 mAh battery and two cameras: 2 megapixel and VGA. The 8-inch screen has a resolution of 1280x800 pixels. The tablet is also available with Android - but they didn't have it at MWC.

It's time for the most important, or phone calls. The star among the novelties is Archos 50 Diamond. This is an attractive stylized 5-inch smartphone with full HD IPS screen and a 16-megapixel camera and a 8-megapixel Selfie camera. The heart of this model is 64-bit, octa-core processor with 4-cores clocked at 1.5 GHz and four at 1 GHz, supported by 2 GB of RAM. The phone has 16 GB of flashROM memory, NFC, a microSD slot and an FM radio. It is worth noting that it supports LTE network, working in DualSIM mode.

Archos 50 Helium is less advanced. It has a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor, a gigabyte of RAM and 8 GB flashROM. It also has two cameras (5 and 2 megapixels) and can work as DualSIM - also in LTE. A little disappointing is the resolution of a 5-inch screen, amounting to 854x480 pixels. The third novelty - 50 Oxygen+ is a similar design - it has a much better screen resolution (HD 720p) and a slightly faster processor - 1.4 GHz. It has 16 GB of memory, but it does not support LTE. Here you can install two SIM cards - but one of them interchangeable with a microSD card. 50 Oxygen+ has an 8-megapixel camera and an 8 megapixels Selfie.

Na stoisku Archosa można również obejrzeć model 52 Platinum, z ekranem HD 5,25 cala, czterordzeniowym procesorem 1,3 GHz, DualSIM i 8-megowym aparatem. Archos 45 Neon jest nieco mniejszy - ma 4,5-calowy ekran 854x480 pikseli, 512 MB RAM-u i 5-megową kamerę. W jego specyfikacji znalazły się także 4 GB pamięci, procesor 4x1,3 GHz oraz imponująca na tle pozostałych parametrów bateria 3000 mAh. To model "młodzieżowy" - stąd kilka kolorów tylnego panelu obudowy. Ostatnim telefonem, jaki można obejrzeć u Archosa jest windowsowy 40 Cesium. Ma on 4-calowy ekran 800x480 pikseli, czterordzeniowy procesor 1,2 GHz i 512 MB RAM-u. Dysponuje ponadto 5-megapikselowym aparatem i 4 GB pamięci flash.
