Manual of product 404
Editorial note
The Archos 404 is an MP3 player that stands out for its compactness and lightness, with dimensions of 100 x 78 x 15 mm and a weight of only 195 g. This practical design makes it an ideal companion for travel. In terms of compatibility, it supports several common audio formats such as AAC, AC3, and MP3, ensuring an enjoyable listening experience with your favorite files. Additionally, its nickel-metal hybrid (NiMH) battery offers decent autonomy, allowing you to enjoy music throughout the day. The 3.5-inch screen, although somewhat limited with its resolution of 320 x 240 pixels, provides an acceptable visual experience for navigating playlists. However, there are some drawbacks to note. The battery life may be insufficient during prolonged use, and the screen may seem outdated compared to modern standards. Furthermore, the exclusively wired connectivity limits mobility, which can be a drawback for users accustomed to wireless options. Finally, the compatibility restricted to older operating systems like Windows XP, Vista, and 7 could pose a problem for those using more recent systems. Overall, the Archos 404 offers a satisfactory user experience thanks to its intuitive interface and audio quality, but some limitations in terms of connectivity and compatibility may restrict its appeal.Score details
