ARCHOS Diamond Omega Review

Score: 69 / 100

ARCHOS Diamond Omega is a complete cellphone released many years ago, coming with a large 5.7-inches display, an exceptional 2.45 gigahertz Octa-Core processing unit, and 2 cameras, a 12 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 mega-pixels front camera. But let's get into some more detail.

Though this device just has 5.81" long, it's still able to fit a a 5.7" screen. The ARCHOS Diamond Omega is just 0.33 inches thick, making it one of the thinnest phones on sale. The ARCHOS Diamond Omega design combines Glass and Metal . It appears that Archos forgot about optimizing the weight in this 6 oz phone.

Archos decided to power this cellphone using a great Octa-Core processing unit ticking at 2450 megahertz, packed into the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 MSM8998 chip with a large 8 GB RAM. A good advantage of this cellphone is its huge 128 GB internal storage and even though it doesn't count with an SD card slot, it is still enough to install hundreds of applications without worrying about running out of space.

This phone has a incredible 5.7 inches display with a 1080 x 2040 resolution, giving this phone a high level graphical experience.

This cellphone features two cameras, a 12 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 mega-pixels front facing camera. this cellphone's back facing camera has an aperture of f/1.8 so it can capture clear photos even in poor lighting environments. It is also able to shoot videos in 4K 3840x2160 at 30 frames per second, and slow motion videos in 1280x720 (HD) at 120 frames per second.

The ARCHOS Diamond Omega uses a large 3100 mAh Li - Ion non-removable battery that can keep it running for many hours without having to charge it at all. An issue to consider is that the ARCHOS Diamond Omega's battery is non-replaceable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it begins to get older, whereas with this big battery you will probably replace this phone before it becomes an issue.

This cellphone provides wifi connection (and it can be provided to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE-A 4G super fast data connection and the fastest 3G connectivity, over HSPA and HSUPA technologies. This cellphone uses 2 Nano SIM cards to be able to to use two different phone lines at the same time.

This phone also features many cool features like Fingerprint Reader, NFC, Bluetooth and GPS Localization, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This phone is probably a good choice for you no matter if you want this device mainly for internet broswing and social networks, you love taking pictures, will use this phone for work or will use it as a gamer cellphone. When buying this phone you will also receive Quick Start Guide, USB cable, Warranty booklet, USB Charger and Audio Adaptor (Type-C to 3.5 mm) .
