ARCHOS SA The ARCHOS 55 Diamond Selfie features Dragontrail reinforced glass and scratch resistant backside and metal details.
It sports a large 5.5 inch IPS Full HD screen, including the full lamination technology, with a display resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, providing its users with an extra-large immersion into their favourite multimedia, thanks to true colour reproduction and optimum definition.
The ARCHOS 55 Diamond Selfie embeds two cameras: 16 MP with autofocus and LED flash on the back, 8 MP on the front, for great pictures and videos of best memories to have and share with family and friends. Equipped with a screen flash, the 8 MP front camera is the ideal companion for the ones addicted to selfies, even in difficult conditions.
In addition, it benefits from the Qualcomm technologies dedicated to photography:
ChromaFlash: Two distinctive photos are snapped - one with flash, one without. The final image will take the brightness from the one with flash and the colour accuracy from the other, delivering a single, well- balanced shot.
OptiZoom: Objects are tracked and locked for an automatic zoom in on them, even if they are moving, supplying a greater sharpness.
UbiFocus: While the camera's autofocus is disactivated, five distinct images are taken at different focal points. These are then processed and combined into one final image which can selectively focus on either the foreground, the background or everything.
Driven by an octo-core Qualcomm MSM8937 processor, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of internal storage, which can be expanded up to 128 GB with a microSD card, it gives power to almost any highly demanding application or game available through the Google Play Store.
The ARCHOS 55 Diamond Selfie offers a 4G/LTE connectivity, for super-fast downloads.
It is easily protected thanks to its fingerprint sensor, located at the backside of its casing. Under one second, the power is on and the smartphone is unlocked with one touch, offering an additional piece of security.
The ARCHOS 55 Diamond Selfie packs a 3000 mAh battery, to go through the entire day. It additionally features the Qualcomm Quick Charge technology to refill the battery faster than with conventional charging.
It runs Google Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) in its purest release, with complete access to the Google Play Store and its millions of apps.
Thanks to its gyroscope, the ARCHOS 55 Diamond Selfie can be used with VR glasses, to fly a drone, as well as to hunt Pokemons!
The ARCHOS 55 Diamond Selfie will be exhibited on ARCHOS's booth at IFA 2016 (Hall 25, Booth 206). It will be available for purchase onwww.archos.com and through its distribution's channel worldwide in September 2016 for £199,99.
