Comparisons Featuring Archos 55 Cobalt Plus
Short Review
- The Archos 55 Cobalt Plus features a plastic build with dimensions of 152.5 x 77 x 8.3 mm and weighs 130g, making it relatively lightweight.
- Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 267 ppi, suitable for everyday use.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6735P chipset, a quad-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, and 2GB of RAM, which handles basic tasks adequately.
- The rear camera offers a 13 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p@30fps, while the front-facing camera is limited to 2 MP.
- The battery capacity is 2700 mAh, supporting standard charging without wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 5.1.1 (Lollipop), the software experience may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it lacks 5G support and NFC.
- The device is available in blue and gray colors, though it does not feature water resistance.
- Overall, the Archos 55 Cobalt Plus is a basic smartphone with essential features for casual users.
