Editorial note

The Archos Helium 45 smartphone stands out for its lightness and compact design, weighing only 140 g, making it easy to carry on a daily basis. Its 4.5-inch IPS display offers vibrant colors and good responsiveness, although the resolution of 854 x 480 pixels may disappoint some users, especially when watching multimedia content. In terms of performance, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4-core processor ensures smooth multitasking. However, the 1 GB RAM capacity may limit its effectiveness with heavy applications, leading to slowdowns. Additionally, the 4 GB internal storage capacity is relatively low and may prove insufficient for those looking to store many applications and files. The 1850 mAh battery allows for prolonged use, which is a notable advantage, even if the talk time is not specified. Features such as the built-in GPS and the ability to expand storage via microSD cards up to 64 GB are significant assets. However, the lack of 4G compatibility in certain regions may limit the user experience. Finally, the 0.3 MP front camera does not meet the expectations of users looking to take quality selfies, which is a drawback to consider when purchasing. Overall, the Archos Helium 45 offers an acceptable price-to-quality ratio, but some aspects, such as storage capacity and camera quality, could be improved.
