Editorial note

The Archos 50b Cobalt is a smartphone that offers a good compromise for users looking for an affordable and functional device. With its 5-inch screen and a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, it provides a pleasant visual experience for videos and games, although some may find this resolution insufficient compared to current standards. In terms of performance, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 processor at 1.1 GHz with 4 cores ensures smooth usage for multitasking. However, the 2 GB RAM capacity may limit the experience when running more demanding applications. The 13 MP rear camera and the 2 MP front camera are assets, allowing for satisfactory quality images, ideal for selfies and videos. The 2100 mAh battery, while adequate for moderate use, may require frequent recharges for heavy users. Additionally, the Android 6.0 operating system is relatively old, which may restrict access to certain recent features and applications. Despite these drawbacks, the Archos 50b Cobalt stands out with its modern features, such as proximity detection, assisted GPS, and a fingerprint reader, which enhance convenience and security of use. With an internal storage capacity of 32 GB, expandable up to 64 GB via microSD, it offers good value for money, although the lack of USB On-The-Go support may disappoint some users. In summary, the Archos 50b Cobalt is an interesting choice for those looking for an affordable smartphone with practical features, but it may not meet the expectations of demanding users in terms of performance and functionality.
