A Review of the Archos 10.1 G9 Turbo 250 GB – Android 4.0 ICS out of the box with bottomless storage
by Brandon Sobotta on Apr 15, 2012 5 Comments">5
When I first heard of the Archos tablets with an actual built in hard-drive I was very skeptical. A few questions popped in my head about battery life, response time, weight, thickness, and stability. Would I feel this tablet jerking around in my hands as I do with a normal external hard-drive picked up during use? So many pro’s and con’s popped up in the equation with the addition of such a feature over normal flash memory. To me the Archos 10.1 G9 Turbo is a very interesting concept, read on to find out if Archos pulled this off successfully, or …

Archos 80 G9 and 101 G9 tablets get ICS and speed boost
by Bams Sadewo on Mar 20, 2012 1 Comments">1
Fresh from rolling out the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update to its G9 tablet lineup last week, Archos is releasing the turbo versions of the Archos 80 G9 and Archos 101 G9 tablets, which received a nice bump in the clock speed department and come with ICS straight out of the box. You can now get the “new” Archos 80 G9 and Archos 101 G9 with a Texas Instruments OMAP 4 dual-core 1.5GHz processor, whereas the previous iterations only went as high as 1.2GHz. The speed bump may not necessarily bring significant improvement to the tablets’ performance, but the devices do ship …
Meet the Archos G10 XS: the slimmest tablet to ever go into production
by Mike Andrici on Mar 15, 2012 1 Comments">1
Although French consumer electronics company Archos has been in the Android tablet business since September 2009 (when they released the Archos 5 Internet tablet), they are not a name that you would normally associate with top-end devices. The Archos business model was, at least up until now, to provide cheap Android tablets for the lowest possible price. Obviously, the fruits of this philosophy weren’t exactly the slimmest or the best performing tablets around, but that’s sort of about to change, with the imminent release of the Archos G10 xs series of tablets, which will feature a super-thin profile of only …

Archos Arnova 8b G2 Tablet is a-OK
by Christine Torralba on Feb 18, 2012 0 Comments">0
Admittedly, there are a lot of people who are unfamiliar Archos’ Arnova tablet lineage. But even though, we believe we are putting things at a fair game here, especially since this line comes cheaper than the price of the (already) cheap main series of Android tablets. So when the company announced the latest member of its Arnova family, we did not stop to re-consider if it would be a good topic to talk about; as we’re sure someone somewhere is looking for a starter tablet that won’t cost him an arm and leg. The latest entry to this lineage is …
G2 Arnova Android Tablets Coming From Archos
by Aerol Bibat on Aug 13, 2011 0 Comments">0
When you think about it, the current generation of cheap Android tablets isn’t going to last long. First, the constant pace of technology is going to make them obsolete pretty fast. Second, others are going to be delivering a better experience for pretty much the same price. That’s why it’s no surprise that we’re starting to see the second generation of these tablets. Archos has been selling their Arnova line – and last week we saw the G2 version of the company’s eight-inch tablet at the FCC. Well, it seems that isn’t where the company is stopping. We’re set to …

Mobile phones aren’t the only smart ones anymore. Archos, the French consumer electronics manufacturer, has come up with a new line of home phones that run on the Android operating system. The Smart Home Phone and the Home Connect are handsets that are based on the Digitally Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) standard and practically function just like most of the Android mobile phones available today. Except that they’re not carried around in the pocket; they’re left on the dresser or the coffee table back at home. The Smart Home Phone can connect through any ADSL or basic phone line. Its …

Anyone looking to purchase the Archos 32, an 8GB media player running Android? It seems someone accidentally posted the new Personal Media Player a bit early, before removing it, but we still managed to get the details on this unannounced product. The Archos 32 will offer a 3.2-inch touchscreen display, 8GB of storage for media files, 802.11n Wi-Fi connectivity, a built-in camera, Bluetooth, a web browser, and Android 2.1 as the operating system. The media player is expected to be offered for $147.00. [via Engadget]
More Android based Archos tablets
by James Tromans on Apr 13, 2010 0 Comments">0
Archos CEO Henri Crohas recently announced in a press conference Archos’ intentions to release a slew of tablet based devices running Google Android. In the image to the right, a quick gander led me to believe that Archos have excellent style, branding and design continuity going on there, but it became clear that each tablet you see before you is the same image, adjusted in size to represent the different tablet screen sizes. The tablet sizes will range from 3” to 10” whereby the latter will sport 800MHz and 1GHz ARM Cortex-based chips. According to our sources, at least one …
