Verdict

The Archos 101 G9 SSD is a 10.1-inch Android tablet featuring a 1280 x 800 resolution capacitive multitouch screen and powered by a dual-core Texas Instruments OMAP 4 processor. This specific variant is equipped with 16GB of internal flash storage and 512MB to 1GB of RAM, depending on the exact sub-model, while supporting expansion via a microSDHC slot. Key characteristics include an integrated kickstand for hands-free viewing, a mini-HDMI output for TV connectivity, and a unique 3G-ready USB slot for an optional modem stick. Its primary pros are its excellent multimedia versatility, with native support for a wide range of HD video codecs, and its competitive pricing for a large-screen device. However, common cons include a plastic build that can feel unrefined or 'cheap,' occasional software sluggishness due to limited RAM, and the lack of a rear-facing camera, offering only a 720p front webcam for video calls.
