Short Review

  • The Archos 50 Platinum features a sleek design with dimensions of 143.4 x 72.4 x 8.9 mm and a weight of 160.2g, making it comfortable to hold.
  • Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 220 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
  • Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM8225Q Snapdragon S4 Play chipset with a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A5 CPU and 4GB of RAM, allowing for moderate multitasking.
  • The 8 MP rear camera captures decent images with autofocus, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
  • Video recording is limited to 720p, which may not meet the expectations of users seeking high-definition video.
  • The 2000 mAh battery provides standard usage time but lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device does not feature stereo speakers, but it does include a headphone jack for audio output.
  • Overall, the Archos 50 Platinum is a basic smartphone with essential features suitable for everyday use.
