Sent a faulty replacement product - not replacing it because it's no longer warranted! Got the ARCHOS 80 XS - 8 GB in Jan 2013 for my partner as a present. To cut the story short, hardly used it, started using it more in October 2013, difficulty in charging it, turned out the usb port on the tablet was faulty so sent it back for a replacement. Sent it back at the end of Nov and didn't get a new one until Jan 2014. Conveniently after my warranty period. The new tablet got a dot on the screen and my partner noticed very light scratch marks on the back. They wanted pictures, I provided them with it and not heard anything for 10 days. Just emailed them this morning asking for an update, got a reply in French so had to use google translate - 'The device for which you are requesting information is no longer under warranty / marketed by ARCHOS.' I got that reply straight away and replied back demanding an answer - Guess What??? No reply. I would not bother to get an ARCHOS tablet but if you do make sure you use your credit card. I now have to try using Section 75. Basically, poor customer service and product.

Even replacement products are faulty I bought an ARCHOS 101 G9 turbo tablet in december, however the USB port was faulty, so I sent it back (After spending a very long time trying to find out how to contact them!). I was made to pay all postage costs, even though if the product is faulty it is actually the company's responsibility to cover the costs. I was told that it would take up to 4 weeks for my tablet to be returned, however after 4 weeks I still had no tablet, so I called them up and I was simply told "I don't know." Which was utterly unacceptable. It took them another 2 weeks to send my tablet back, however this one was also faulty! I have asked for a refund as I have lost faith in the company, but neither ARCHOS nor Laptops Direct (the company I bought my tablet from) will give me the time of day, as they both say it's the other company's responsibility. I do not reccomend buying from ARCHOS or Laptops Direct to anyone, unless they await dissapointment.

Nice product / poor service Was very happy with my Archos 3VC mp3/mp4 player, good sound, nice features (built-in camera), until one day, I found the device had a cracked screen (cracked from the inside). Normal use and normal transportation (hey, where else would you keep an mp3 player? inside my vest pocket, right?). Brought it to repair... but no communication possible whatsoever. They simply do not believe me, that I did not drop the device nor punctured it... Would cost me 56 EUR to repair the screen. That is unacceptable! I feel mistrusted as a consumer! So, too bad... from now on, I consider buying a Sony instead! At least they included the LCD touchscreen as part of their standard warranty. At least they value their customers' trust.

A Tablet @ An Affordable Price I purchased the Archos 70 internet Tablet, it’s a good and affordable alternative to the iPad 1. However bear in mind it is not very good at gaming, also instead of releasing a free patch to Android 3.2 they instead released the Archos 70b tablet.
