Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet Review
The entire Archos portable media player line is one that is highly popular. Needless to say that a lot of people want to get their hands on this gadget. As soon as you look at the Archos 5 you get to see that the design was changed. We thus have a big enough touchscreen display of 4.8 inches. In order to get increased functionality the device uses plug-ins but you will be happy to know that interesting features like format support and Web browsing is included.
Archos 5 is slimmer and looks better than the previous gadget in the line. Audio quality is even higher than what we expected and we did like watching photos and movies on this device. We are faced with impressive sharpness, vibrancy and clarity. The present touchscreen interface was responsive. The only problem we had was with the fact that there was no ability present to adjust font size. This basically means that your huge file collection will be difficult to go through in the Archos 5.
There are many features that make this portable media player interesting. One of them is highly important and will surely be popular. Archos 5 includes Wi-Fi. You can use it for Internet browsing and even stream content you want from a personal computer. In order to do this Windows Media Player needs to have media sharing enabled. When you do that you can basically access all media files that you have on your home computer. That is something that is impressive as you will be able to use the incluced storage space to store different files than the ones you would use from your PC.
