What Archos Tablet Should I Get?

[Jimbo13]

I've decided to get an archos tablet as they have high internal memory and cant decide which one to get, these are the six I'm considering, but what one is the best?
- Archos 70 internet tablet (250gb)
- Archos 48 Internet Tablet (500gb)
- Archos 7 Internet Media Tablet (160GB )
- Archos 5 Internet Tablet (500gb)

They have such high memory because they have hard disks in them rather than solid state memory.

I guess the hard disks are the same as they fit in laptops and therefore if the tablet is dropped it may wreck the hard disk.

Solid state memory has no movign parts so cant crash.

If you are goign to bu one make sure it has a recent version of Android, some I can see o nthe web have 2.2 which is very old.

The latest is 4.0 and 4.1

Personally I wouldn't bother. None have exactly rave reviews, they're pretty old designs, and they have pretty low resolution screens. They are not so much Tablets as MP3/MP4 players with extra bells and whistles.

I have one of the older Archos tablets, it's alright for what I need it to do, it is as has been said a glorified mp3 player.

If I were looking for a more up to date tablet I wouldn't buy an Archos

me either, IMO they are slow and a bit quirky to use.
