Archos today
introduced four new Google Android-based tablets, priced from $119 to $249.
CES-2013, Archos introduced four devices in the
"Titanium" tablet line run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and feature high-def.
IPS capacitive multi-touch screens with dual-core 1.6GHz CPUs and a quad-core
GPU capable of 1080p video decoding.
Despite their name, the tablets aren't made of
titanium, but instead sport a "sleek aluminum design."
The
new machines come in a range of sizes — the smallest being the 7-inch Archos 70
Titanium, which is priced at $119, and "offers similar features to
competitors such as Amazon, at a better price point,"
Meanwhile,
the slightly larger Archos 80 Titanium, designed to offer a similar user
experience to the iPad mini, but with a more affordable price tag: $169.
Those
seeking a large-screen tablet might consider the 10.1-inch Archos 101 Titanium,
which is priced at $199. The star of the lineup, however, is the $249 Archos 97
Titanium HD, offering a 9.7-inch, 2,048-by-1,536 resolution screen, aiming to
be "an alternative to the new iPad for half the price,”
In addition to the Titanium tablet line, Archos
unveiled at this week's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas two higher-end
slates that are part of its Platinum family, according to Engaged . The
Platinum 97 and Platinum 80, which look strikingly similar to the iPad and iPad
mini, both feature a 1.2GHz quad-core processor and 2-megapixel front and
rear-facing cameras.
The Platinum 97 measures in at 9.7-inches and
sports 2,048-by-1,536 display, while the Platinum80 has an 8-inch 1,024-by-768
resolution screen. The devices will be available in March with a price tag of
$329 for the Platinum 97 and $199 for the Platinum 80.
