The ARCHOS 101 XS 2 is a Google Certified 10.1-inch Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) tablet powered by a quad-core 1.6 GHz CPU, 2GB RAM, with an HD IPS screen, front facing stereo speakers and dual-cameras. Smartly designed, this feature rich and high performance tablet also includes the innovative Coverboard (introduced in last year’s Gen10 range), a unique magnetic keyboard made to improve content creation.
The Gen11 ARCHOS 101 XS 2 utilizes Dual-Band Wi-Fi, the next generation of Wi-Fi for mobile devices. Dual-Band Wi-Fi is capable of using both the 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands for a more stable, less congested connection that results in faster download and browsing speeds. The ARCHOS 101 XS2 also includes Bluetooth and GPS technology.
ARCHOS 101 XS 2 comes with the ultra-thin magnetic Coverboard in every box. The Coverboard acts as a comfortable chicklet keyboard, freeing up screen space and enabling users to work faster with Android shortcuts for direct access to the main functions.
The Triple function Coverboard is more than a keyboard. It is also an integrated protective cover for your tablet screen, includes a Kickstand for easier movie watching and serves as a charging dock for the tablet.
Its 10.1” IPS screen (1280 x 800) provides vivid, sharp images and extra wide viewing angles for an excellent viewing experience. Thanks to its front-facing stereo speakers, the ARCHOS 101 XS 2 delivers a truly immersive experience for movies, music and games.
