    Better than Ipod Video

    By Christian P  Jun 15, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Archos Gmini 402 review helpful

    Pros: longer battery life, doesn't scratch easily, loud audio, fits in pocket

    Cons: no emulators, not many games take advantage of its capabilities

    The Archos Gmini 402 is way better than an Ipod. It has sooo many good features and is half the price of an Ipod Video, $250 new at amazon vs. $400 used at amazon last time I checked. This small machine can play videos, music, games, and pictures all... on a 2.5" crystal clear display. And with a 20 gig hard drive, you don't have to worry about using up all of you memory. The battery life is another plus, this thing lasts about 5 hrs. watching movies vs. 2 hrs. on the Ipod, and plays music for 20! I only wish it could play better games than those junky cell phone games it comes with, because it's perfect for playing games. All in all 5 stars, no 10! Read more Less

    Absolutely Great!!!

    By erenmieles  Jun 6, 2007

    Pros: It has a big 20gb hard drive. Its battery life is astonishing (way better than ipod video). Quality of video is superb.

    Cons: Umm...it isn't free...

    I absolutely love this mp3 player. I chose not to buy an ipod video simply because i couldn't afford it. I purchased this gmini on ebay for only $125!!! It is by far the best deal i have ever made. It might not have a 30gb hard drive like the ipo...d does but it cost me half the price. It is small enough that i can fit it in my pocket on my way to my classes. I always put movies on this bad-boy whenever i'm traveling. I sorta do wish that they released classic nintendo games for it, but i know that would be impossible. Have heard that its hackable and people end up being able to play gameboy games on it. Oh ya, I also love it when people ask me if its a gameboy or something...I just simply respond, "No, its like your ipod, just a whole lot cheaper." Read more Less
