In just over a week we are having Archos announcing a good variety of terminals as a prelude to that Mobile World Congress where they can be taken in hand to test them and know in situ if they will comply with what appears in advance with the list of specifications. Yesterday we met his three new tablets with 70 Oxygen, 80 Oxygen and 101b Oxygen. Three ways to see the Android market right now in which they highlight that they arrive directly with Android 6.0 Marshmallow, use the same quad-core MediaTek chip and 2GB of RAM so that the user is not short on apps in the background. The other option launched recently is a phone, the Archos 50d Oxygen with a 5-inch 1080p screen, MediaTek octa-core chip and 13 MP camera. A smartphone that is lower in specifications and prices than what we have today with the Archos Diamond 2 Plus.
This new Diamond 2 Plus is announced days before the unavoidable appointment for everyone in Barcelona with MWC 2016. A smartphone that is characterized by the 5,5-inch 1080p screen, octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 chip, Android 6.0 Marshmallow, 20 MP rear camera with Sony sensor and a 8-inch front megapixels. A smartphone that has all the details to position itself as the ideal one for a user who does not want to exceed € 249 and that is in that range that is becoming ideal for most Android users who completely go beyond the range high and that, for their daily tasks with social networks, taking pictures or video games, is perfect. Let's see the other details of this Archos smartphone.
A phone with great detail
If we have commented on its octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 chip, which comes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow To take advantage of its virtues and benefits and that in the 20 megapixel rear camera it has a Sony sensor with laser autofocus and dual-tone LED flash, if we start to comment that it offers dual SIM support, which has a fingerprint sensor in the rear and a USB type-C port, surely opportunities open up for you to start taking it differently. Archos wanted to give this phone all those details that are almost becoming an obligation to have in a smartphone, especially the fingerprint sensor.
The reality is that we are facing a very complete phone that does not lack anything, since in the RAM it has 4GB and in internal memory reaches up to 64 GB as a base to be able to be expanded by micro SD up to 128 GB. A smartphone that has been equipped with everything to have a good design finish that makes it an interesting purchase. Already at the MWC we can have it in hand to take the rest of the sensations.
