Short Review
- The Archos 50 Saphir features a robust design with dimensions of 146.6 x 75.9 x 13.9 mm and a weight that enhances its durability.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6737 chipset, with a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 2GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks.
