Archos 604 review


Summary: : Be aware of the missing features, but also that this offers some notable design improvements over its predecessor -- it's recommended... Read the full review
Verdict: The slimmed-down features list bothered us at first, but what Archos has done is given you the choice -- if you don't want to record TV shows, you don't need to buy the dock and can save yourself £70 off the price of an AV 500. Improved design and similarly strong performance makes the 604 a more than worthy successor
Pros: ; Neat and elegant design; much improved user interface; excellent screen
Cons: ; Needs DVR Station to record TV

Verdict: If you don't require TV recording (a £70 dock is needed for that), this is the state of the art. Even if you don't, it's still worth a go.

Cons: ; Fewer features than the AV500
