ARCHOS 133 Oxygen is an affordable 13.3-inch FHD Android tablet
Interesting Android tablets are becoming increasingly rare nowadays. Consumers seem fatigued by the overwhelming number of low-quality tablets on the market. Understandably, large-screen smartphones have likely stolen some of the thunder too.
Today, ARCHOS announces a tablet that is fairly generic and underwhelming in most of its specifications. For instance, there is no USB-C here. Dubbed the "133 Oxygen", there are two aspects that make the otherwise lackluster device intriguing, however. What are they? A large 13.3-inch 1080p display and an affordable price. The 10,000mAh battery doesn't hurt either.
"The ARCHOS 133 Oxygen comes with a 13.3-inch Full HD IPS display, delivering a 1920 x 1080 resolution, providing color fidelity as well as fluidity, to enjoy practically any multimedia content. With its impressive 34cm screen, it will become the must-have family companion this season. Families can sit down and play games, watch movies, share pictures or surf the web together. It can also be put on display in the kitchen or the living room as a family organizer", says ARCHOS.
The manufacturer further explains, "it sports an octo-core Rockchip RK3368 processor at 1.5 Ghz together with a PowerVR SGX6110 GPU, the best combination today for enjoying blazing 3D games and 4K videos. The ARCHOS 133 Oxygen is also backed by 2GB of RAM, 64GB of internal storage, expandable up to 128 GB thanks to its built-in Micro SD slot, for appreciating photos, videos, highly demanding applications, with nearly no limit. It embeds two cameras, 5 MP with Flash Focus at the back, 2 MP at the front, to catch the best of the everyday’s family life and to video chat for keeping in touch with loved ones".
Unfortunately for some, the ARCHOS 133 Oxygen is only being sold in the UK. If you are in that region and interested in purchasing this large tablet running Android Marshmallow, you can get it in November 2016 for £179.99
