The Archos 105 is a slim, affordable, 2GB MP3 player from a company known for its high-performance portable video players.
With its anodized aluminum face and Nano-thin body, the Archos 105 looks like a streamlined metal candy bar. The Archos 105 measures a tall, yet thin, 1.8 inches, by 3.3 inches, by 0.3 inch. Yet, in spite of its delicate size, the Archos 105's mostly metal construction lends it a ruggedness not typically found on budget MP3 players.
The navigation pad on the Archos 105 may look unusual at first glance, but it's essentially a standard four-way direction pad with a center select button. What makes the fish-shaped navigation pad look so unusual is the superficially connected power and cancel buttons that jut off to the left of the main navigation controls.
From a design perspective, it would seem that the major achievement of the Archos 105 is the inclusion of an antireflective 1.8-inch OLED color screen on an MP3 player that sells for $89.
The Archos 105 includes a music player, video player, and photo viewer.
Archos 105's has the ability to intelligently resume video playback where you left off, a feature seldom found in budget video players.
The Archos 105's music player is its best feature. Transferring music to the Archos 105 using Windows Media Player is a snap, but users who prefer to drag and drop files directly can switch the 105 into a Mac/PC compatible USB storage mode.
The Archos 105 supports MP3, WMA, protected-WMA, and WAV audio formats, which can be sorted by ID3 tag attributes (album, genre, year, etc.) or as a series of personally organized files and folders. During music playback, the Archos 105 displays album art thumbnails alongside track details and the title of the upcoming song.
By pressing the menu button during music playback, the Archos 105 allows you to set your EQ preset (including a custom five-band EQ), add bookmarks to long audio files, retrieve detailed file information (bit rate, file type, etc.), and even create custom playlists.
