Comparisons Featuring Archos Saphir 50X
Short Review
- The Archos Saphir 50X features a robust design with dimensions of 146.6 x 76 x 13 mm and a weight of 210g, making it relatively sturdy.
- It has a 5.0-inch S-IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, offering decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6737VWT chipset, featuring a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 2GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for simple selfies.
- The 4000 mAh battery provides substantial longevity, although it lacks fast charging and wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 7.0 Nougat, the software experience is straightforward but may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
- 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.
