We've talked about the Archos Arnova 8 and 10 inch tablets earlier this month, and while we were not impressed with specs we were looking forward at those cheap Android tablets bearing a brand name, one that was known for it multimedia capable devices. The same stands for the Archos Arnova, company's biggest format slate to date, that just surfaced online in US for under $200 with 4GB of internal memory (source). If you think 4GB is not enough to store multimedia files you're right, but also tak...

If you want to get a cheap Android tablet these days and you don't want to pay for a no-name model then Archos is your only option.

Archos is one of the early manufacturers to announce their tablets plans and to bring them to market. Of course they're multimedia oriented, just like the brand, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, as most people use tablets for media consumption and web browsing. Archos's lineup is called Gen 8 and consists of 2.8, 3.2, 4,3, 7 and 10.1 inch tablets. It practically covers the whole spectrum of diagonals, plus those very small odd ones. But we're already deviating from the subject of this new...

It was about time for Archos to start shipping those cheap Android tablets presented to general public a few months ago. I can sense the tablet wars heating up already. As you probably know... but maybe I'll just remind you what the Archos 101 is all about, the flagship of Archos lineup. It's a 10.1 inch capacitive touchscreen Android tablet with two models, one with 8 GB of internal memory and the other with 16 GB of internal storage. Those two just surfaced on Amazon for pretty low prices: 299...

Finally someone getting serious about tablets, and that someone is Archos, who just officially announced five new Android models: the 28, 32, 43, 70 an 101. If you're confused, don't be, as each model name stands for it's diagonal in inches, with one decimal, so the Archos 28 is 2.8 inches, Archos 32 is 3.2 inches, Archos 43 is 4.3 inches, Archos 70 is 7 inches and Archos 101 is 10.1 inches.All tablets are powered by Android 2.2 Froyo and feature a lot of multimedia functions, because that's...

We've told you last week about the Archos Gen 8 Tablet, a 3.2 inch slate meant for media consumption. Well, it seems that the real name is Archos 32, which is on par with what you would expect from their naming scheme that puts the diagonal number in inches right there, for you to see and understand. FCC got a hold past days on the Archos 32, shoot some pictures and made some measurements.From what we know now the Archos 32 is a 3.2 inch diagonal slate with 400 x 240 pixel resolution (ouch!)...

You thought that the Dell Streak is one small tablet, measuring just 5 inch in diagonal? It seems Archos is preparing an even bigger surprise, or should I say smaller, as the Gen 8 Tablet will feature a very small 3.2 inch screen with an aging 400 x 240 pixels resolution, powered by an ARM Cortex A8 CPU capable of 720p video playback at 24 pixels.Things like WiFi, Bluetooth EDR, and composite video output are also included in the (small) package of Archos Gen 8 Tablet. It's interesting to se...

Archos 7 Home Tablet, one of the cheap and interesting tablets announced this year, has started shipping all over the world. For 200$ it's a cheap way to get into the touch tablet bandwagon, and some people are rushing to get it and then review it for other to see what's it like. Someone at Touchmobile.de gave me a heads up about their unboxing so I rushed to see what the 200$ tablet can do. Apparently it's exactly as we've expected: nice plain Android 1.5 OS that runs pretty smooth.The Arch...
