ARCHOS 40b Titanium Review

Score: 46.4 / 100

ARCHOS 40b Titanium is a decent device released back in the year 2014, featuring a high performance Dual-Core processing unit running at 1.3 gigahertz, a 4-inches multi-touch capacitive screen, and two cameras, a 5 megapixels back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front camera.

This device is much lighter than what one would think about a device like this. This phone is incredibly slim and practical, being just 0.31" thick.

Archos decided to power this cellphone using a very fast Dual-Core processing unit clocking at 1300 MHz, packed into a Mediatek MT6572 system chip and only 512 MB of RAM memory which is a little bit low for a cellphone this powerful. Handling graphic intensive apps, it also uses an ARM Mali-400 GPU clocking at 500 MHz. This phone comes with a 4 GB internal memory, a reasonable amount that should be adequate for the average user considering that this phone also has an SD extension slot .

The ARCHOS 40b Titanium includes a nice 4-inches display with a 800 x 480 resolution, giving this phone a good graphical experience. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This phone features two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back camera and a 0.3 MP front camera. The camera also counts with flash.

This phone packs a 1400 mAh mid capacity Li-Ion battery, which is quite low for a device like this.

The ARCHOS 40b Titanium provides wi-fi connection (although it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a hotspot), 4G (HSPA+) connection type, that is not so fast as LTE networks and the fastest 3G data connection, supported by HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. This phone has dual SIM to be able to to use 2 different phone numbers.

This cellphone also features some nice characteristics such as Bluetooth and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The ARCHOS 40b Titanium is being sold for $ 249, high for comparing with other similar devices. Archos packs this phone with USB cable, Quick Start Guide (QSG) and Power adapter.
