Comparisons Featuring Archos 50b Platinum
Short Review
- The Archos 50b Platinum features a simple design with a plastic build, measuring 146.8 x 73 x 8.3 mm and weighing 160 grams.
- It has a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 220 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6582 chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 4GB of RAM, which allows for basic multitasking.
- The rear camera is 8 MP with autofocus and can record video at 1080p@30fps, while the front camera is a 2 MP shooter.
- The battery capacity is 1900 mAh, providing limited longevity without fast charging or wireless options.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience is basic and lacks modern features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone does not have water resistance and is available only in black.
- Overall, the Archos 50b Platinum delivers fundamental smartphone capabilities without advanced features.
