Archos Oxygen 50: First Look

2013-09-08
it's Josh of Agartha mentor Authority what's going on everybody and we are here at the Archos booth at Aoife in Berlin now Argos holds a very special place in my heart because one of their first devices way back 10 years ago was one of the first devices I had that got me into technology and Here I am 10 years later 10 plushies they're looking at their Android smartphone what we're looking at here is the very recently announced just before Aoife the oxygen 50 is their flagship phone the oxygen is their flagship line there are actually you might be able to see in the background there there are a bunch of phones that's only a fraction of what they offer there is the oxygen line the platinum line and the titanium line all that order being from high to mid to lower range what we're looking at here is the oxygen 50 now this this right here is definitely a phone that can call itself a more high-end device we're working with here is a full HD 5-inch screen and is an IPS screen so of course it lends itself to a lot of great brightness if you go here and I ring all the way up things start to get washed out here on the video so we're just gonna bring it back down for the sake of our video but as you can see it is a greatly greatly bright screen and it works very wonderfully on this device our capacitive keys on the bottom here the usual button layout of the power on the right side and the volume rocker here on the left side but after that you have a such you have a soft touch plastic rather as very nice to the touch might get a little bit smudgy depending on you know how many hands we have been on in this case there have been a lot but it's still a nice feel as you can see in the curve on the bottom it definitely rests really easy in your hand because of this nice and very substantial curve that you have of course here's the micro USB slot okay and then it comes with 16 gigabytes of storage is a quad-core 1.5 gigahertz mediatek processor powering the stock vanilla Android as Arcos as a partner as an official partner with Google they are able to have the full stock experience maybe with a few tweaks here and there but still definitely the vanilla Android experience so that's definitely something that many of us will definitely like about this phone first impressions honestly this this this phone really feels really great it's very thin it's very lightweight and it it handles really easily in the hand it's actually really really nice the speed is there with the mediatek processor right there you can see it goes along quite smoothly now mediatek might not be a Qualcomm processor it might not have the full snappiness but I'm sure that the mediatek quad-core processor in this particular phone will be able to power it and give you a reliable experience now like I said before Arcos has a number of lines for their smartphone offerings the other lines being the Platinum line and the titanium line they all come in a bunch of different sizes this of course is called the 50 because as a 5 inch screen but there's also the Platinum 53 for example that is the mid-range the more mid-range device now the only reason why it's mid-range is because it doesn't come with a full HD screen but it comes in at five point three inches and has a dual core processor so once again that is the oxygen 50 we're looking at the flagship here at the Archos booth at Aoife in Berlin make sure you stay tuned and also if you wanted a good Android smartphone the other range that is available as you can see a bunch of the other phones there are a lot of different phones in different sizes with different specs but also different price points so if you're looking for an affordable smartphone Arcos might be one of those places that is perfect so once again is the Josh magar from Android authority we're here at the Arcos booth at Aoife bringing you all the best coverage from Berlin so make sure you stay tuned to Android thority because we're your source for all things Android
