  • Huge screen, Wide viewing angle, Records audio and video from external sources, Can record TV at scheduled times, Excellent battery life, especially for audio only, Includes kickstand, iTunes plug-in for Mac users, Nice printed manual
  • Expensive, Screen looks grainy and washed out, Wide-screen content hard to come by, No software CD included, Video-conversion tools not optimised for the AV700
  • Proof positive that bigger isnt always better, the Archos AV700 fails to make the most of its wide-screen LCD. ...

  • Abstract:  The Archos AV 700 Mobile Digital Video Recorder can be used to listen to music, watch videos, view photos and, best of all, record directly from DVDs, CDs and live TV. However all this functionality comes at a price, as the bulky AV 700 is not designed...

  • Depth of features
  • Occasional MPEG4 lip-sync glitches, No hard-wired remote
  • The tablet-like AV700 - from Archos, the company that arguably initiated the portable media player revolution - is its first model to sport a 16:9 screen. And what a screen - its 7in diagonally, has a 4:3 mode for older material and is matt-finished (...

  • Abstract:  Portable media players (PMPs) are designed to hold all your digital music, videos and photos and play them back through the built-in screen and speakers or an external display. Some, such as iRivers PMC-120, run Microsofts Portable Media Center, b...

  • Size of the screen and slimness of the main unit; plays DivX files flawlessly; good battery life; plenty of features
  • Too big for most uses; low-resolution screen is flickery; buttons arent labelled
  • The Archos AV700s huge size is both its strength and and its weakness. Itll replace your portable DVD player, but its not as convenient as the AV400 series. The option to use Windows Media Player to sync media makes it more accessible to novices, b...

  • Abstract:  McDonalds may be phasing out Supersize options, but Archos is phasing them in. This media player is basically a pumped-up version of the AV 400. Instead of the puny 3.5-inch screen on the earlier model, you get a massive seven-inch display. In other...

  • Taille de l'écran, Port USB pour connecter un APN, Fonction enregistreur, Synchronisation avec WMP 10, Télécommande fournie
  • Enorme !, Qualité des hauts parleurs, Pixels de l'écran trop visibles, Pas de réencodage des vidéos au format non supporté, Prix
  • Plus transportable que portable, ce lecteur sera le compagnon idéal des personnes qui voyagent beaucoup. Cependant, pour ce prix, on trouve déjà des ordinateurs portables....

  • Après m’être bien amusé avec l’AV 700, il est maintenant temps de passer à la conclusion. Je ne vais pas vous faire patienter plus longtemps, l’AV 700 m’a un peu déçu. Certes, c’est un magnifique appareil qui va même jusqu&rs...

  • Abstract:  Plutôt que de doubler les fonctionnalités d’une série de baladeurs vidéo déjà très polyvalents, Archos multiplie par deux la diagonale de son écran. Le dernier-né de la série AV, le 700 arbore ainsi un écran de 18 centimètres et enregist...
