Summary
- The Archos 50 Cobalt and BLU Studio X9 HD both feature a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing similar visual clarity.
- In terms of performance, the Archos is equipped with a Mediatek MT6735P chipset and a slightly lower clock speed CPU at 1.0 GHz, while the BLU uses the MT6580 with a higher clock speed of 1.3 GHz, which may offer better performance in some tasks.
- Both devices have an 8 MP rear camera, but the BLU can record video at 1080p, compared to the Archos's 720p.
- Battery capacity is identical at 2000 mAh, but neither supports fast charging.
- The Archos runs on Android 5.1.1, while the BLU benefits from a more recent Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition), potentially providing a better software experience.
- Build-wise, the Archos is slightly lighter and thinner than the BLU, which may affect handling comfort.
