Reviews for the Archos 97 Titanium HD
Dithering escort. In December Archos announced the market launch of the Archos 97 Titanium HD tablet. Now the latest scion of Archos' Element Series is available and promises pictures in razor-sharp HD quality. But can the smart "Frenchman" really compete with the equally sized, 9.7-inch Apple iPad 4 Retina powerhouse? Or will the tablet escort get cold feet after all?

Two things are crucial when deciding whether this device suits you or not. Working in HD mode is slow, and we can only recommend it for web browsing, if you’re not in a hurry. The other flaw is common for Archos. Tablet isn’t charged over standard USB, but rather over its special charger.
