Hands-on with the Archos 405 and DVR dock

Crave We reviewed one of our favourite gadgets of 2007 earlier this month -- the all-sexed-up Archos 605. The Archos 405 is a small and portable multimedia player, with an 89mm (3.5-inch) colour screen and superb sound quality.

Archos Gmini 220 (20GB) review

Reviews A shiny, silver rectangle with rubberised edges, the Archos Gmini 220 straddles the line between sleek and rugged. Archos sells the Gmini's in-line remote separately, but it's a must-have. Archos packages the Gmini 220 with two unique accessories.

Archos 704 Wi-Fi review

Reviews The Archos 704 Wi-Fi is the love child of a portable media player and a PDA. Archos has improved the menu system on all its Series 4 players, of which this is one, but usability is still a long way off that of the iPod.

Archos Gmini 402 (20GB) review

Reviews Archos makes a great personal video player even better with the Gmini 402, an impressive update -- if not a wholesale revision -- to last year's top-notch Gmini 400. The Archos Gmini 402's 56mm, 262k-colour TFT LCD looked good to our eyes, with...

Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet review

Reviews The latest Archos 5 is probably the most significant advancement for Archos to date. The French chaps have scrapped a great deal of what we criticised about past Archos devices -- though the Archos 605 WiFi was still good enough to win one of our...

Archos 7 review

Reviews But, as a result of its construction and size, the Archos 7 is satisfyingly solid, and weighty enough to beat a donkey into a coma with. FeaturesThe Archos 7 runs on an Archos-built Linux operating system with a 600MHz CPU, backed up with 128MB of...

Archos 10 review

Reviews Archos is best known for its portable media players, but has now branched out into the world of netbooks. Its first effort, the Archos 10, sports a 10-inch display, pitting it against heavyweight rivals like the Asus Eee PC 1000HE and Samsung NC10.

Archos 5 vs Cowon A3: PMP prizefight

Crave Cowon's A3 and the new Archos 5 are quite different devices in terms of overall feature sets, but in our opinion video playback is the key selling point of both. Out of the box, the Archos supports MPEG-4 SP, WMV, DivX, Xvid and Flash 9 FLV files...

Archos 604 WiFi review

Reviews Of the numerous models in the new Archos 04 series, the 30GB 604 WiFi is definitely the most advanced. Also, we'd like to see an Archos 604 WiFi with a bigger drive -- 30GB is puny these days for hardcore users.

Archos AV700 TV: tuners in your sky rocket

Crave The world's first handheld, tuner-equipped personal video recorder has been gifted to us, the luckiest generation, by Archos. This sidesteps one of the biggest problems with previous Archos units such as the AV500 -- transferring video from a PC...

Archos Gmini XS202 review

Reviews The Archos Gmini XS202 keeps all the merits of the XS200 and adds some essential features that were strangely missing from the first iteration. DesignThe Archos Gmini XS202's main design virtue is its size.

Archos AV700 review

Reviews We thought the Archos AV400 was great, but we doubt that you bought one. Archos is pioneering the portable video player before Apple or even Sky get in on the act, but for the moment the high price point and lack of legitimately available video...

Archos AV 700 TV

Digital Living Archos goes full circle with the AV 700 TV, adding a Freeview tuner so you can watch live television on the move as well as viewing prerecorded programmes from the hard drive. Will you be tuning in or turning it off?

Archos Gmini XS 100 review

Reviews FeaturesThe Archos Gmini XS 100 doesn't have the bells and whistles of other compact or even flash-memory music players. Archos's new svelte, eye-catching music player is like a smaller, lighter version of Apple's colourful and popular portable.

Archos 504 (160GB) review

Reviews Archos's 04 series includes a model for everyone. Though it doesn't cover the same ground as the Cowon, the 504 can handle your files, which in part will be transcoded via Windows Media Player, the de facto jukebox for the Archos.
