Comparisons Featuring Archos 80 Helium 4G
Short Review
- The Archos 80 Helium 4G features a simple design with a white and silver color scheme, though specific materials and dimensions are not detailed.
- Its 8.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 768 x 1024 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 160 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chipset with a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and Adreno 305 GPU, paired with 1GB of RAM, providing satisfactory multitasking for everyday applications.
- The rear camera is a 5 MP unit capable of 1080p video recording at 30fps, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
- The 3500 mAh battery supports standard usage but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is outdated compared to current standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of stereo speakers may limit audio quality, though a headphone jack is included for wired audio.
- Overall, the Archos 80 Helium 4G serves as a basic tablet with essential features but falls short in advanced specifications and modern software support.
