ARCHOS 45c Platinum Review

Score: 47.6 / 100

ARCHOS 45c Platinum is a fair quality cellphone, which features a 4.5-inches multi touch display, a powerful 1300 MHz Quad-Core processing unit, and 2 cameras, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a 2 MP front facing camera. Is that all? Not at all, it's just the introduction of a detailed review.

Archos sells the ARCHOS 45c Platinum with a fast Quad-Core CPU speeding at 1300 MHz, included in a Mediatek MT6582 chip and 512 MB of RAM memory. This cellphone comes with a 4 GB internal memory, a medium amount that should be fine for most users considering it also has a slot for SD memory cards .

The ARCHOS 45c Platinum feels much lighter than what you expect from a device like this. This cellphone is thin and practical, with a thickness of just 0.35". This cellphone is available in three different color options, black, blue and red.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 5 MP back camera and a 2 mega-pixels front side camera. It also captures videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD). Additionally, this device's camera also features flash.

Archos equipped the ARCHOS 45c Platinum with a interesting 4.5-inches screen, and a resolution of 854 x 480 , providing this cellphone with a nice image quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This cellphone features WiFi connection (but it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a wireless modem), HSPA+ 4G connectivity, that is not as fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and fast 3G connectivity, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This device has 2 SIM cards so it is able to work with 2 different phone numbers.

This device also includes a handful of cool characteristics such as Bluetooth and GPS Navigation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This phone has a 1700 mAh medium capacity Li-Polymer battery, which is quite low for a cellphone like this.

The ARCHOS 45c Platinum is really overvalued considering it is sold for $ 249, while some similar phones are being sold for much less than that. Archos also sells the ARCHOS 45c Platinum with Warranty booklet., Battery, Hands-free kit, Quick start guide, USB charger, 2 coloured back cases and USB cable.
