If you want something to game on, a bonafide gaming handheld like the simlarly priced Nintendo 3DS or PS Vita is a far better bet. And as the Archos GamePad's buttons aren't all that good, they're not the upgrade over virtual controls we had hoped for.

Stylish, comfortable design ; HD IPS screen ; Plenty of games to choose from Impressive battery

Priced too high ; Tinny speakers ; Can't cope with more demanding games ; Button mapping is poor

The GamePad 2 is a vast improvement on the first, but it still doesn't have the blockbusters or price tag to compete with the dedicated handhelds.

Physical inputs to match Xbox/PS3 controllers ; Intuitive and flexible button-mapping function

Archos need to get some updates out for the Gamepad and sharpish, overall it felt like I was using a prototype product, not a publicly available product. It is like they rushed to get it out for Christmas.

Pour cette nouvelle version du GamePad, Archos a non seulement pris en compte les différentes critiques faites à la GamePad 1, mais il a en plus opté pour une plateforme technique performante, qui laisse penser que cette console de jeux sous Android...

Cette Archos Gamepad avait tout pour plaire : un prix très abordable, un concept de console portable très alléchant. En pratique, elle accuse malheureusement trop de défauts, à commencer par l’ergonomie de ses contrôles et la qualité de ses sticks...
