Archos Core 57S specs review – 18:9 Aspect Ratio Smartphone With 16 GB Storage

French makers – Archos announced three smartphones not long ago – Archos Core 55S, Archos Core 60S, and this Archos Core 57S. We’ll be looking extensively at Archos Core 57S today. Just like the other two smartphones, Archos Core 57S is targeted at the budget segment of the smartphone market. Therefore it comes out with several mid-range specifications. Some of these specs include the 16 GB ROM, 1 GB RAM, and 8 MP rear camera. However, it upholds an aspect ratio of 18:9 which isn’t a common feature of budget smartphones. Let’s step right into the Archos Core 57S world, shall we?

Design & Display

The smartphone is made up of plastic covering although the 2.5D curved glass at the front is different. The top bezel isn’t that thick as it houses the front camera, earpiece, and ambient light sensor. Dedicated keys such as the power button and volume keys are found on the smartphone’s right side while the base bezel lacks any occupant. The dimensions are 151 mm length x 72.9 mm breadth x 9.1 mm thickness while its weight is 176 g. Blue is the only color option the smartphone is made available in.
