The Archos 605 media player is not just an MP3 and video player, but an experience unto itself. Although this serious product has a price tag fitting its overwhelming number of features, it’s hard to argue that the sum of the Archos 605’s parts don’t exceed the selling price nonetheless. What features, you ask?
Not only does the Archos provide you with more supported media formats than any other MP3 player, but it also revolutionizes portable video. With a 4.3” screen, you’ll get more viewing area than with other MP3 players that have video playback, and you’ll also be able to stream videos from your PC, or watch web videos from sources like YouTube as well. It’s hard to beat that.
Considering the power of the device, the battery life (17 hours of audio, 5.5 hours of video) is not too shabby, and the ability to download music and videos directly to the player is pretty awesome indeed. If you can stomach the price and want a full-featured MP3 and media player, definitely check out this product.
