Battery Life
A 2800 mAh removable Li-Ion battery powers the Archos 53 Platinum, delivering satisfactory endurance based on its specifications. Users could expect up to 21 hours of talk time on 2G and 15 hours on 3G networks, quite respectable for the technology of the period. The removable aspect of the battery meant users could carry a spare, extending usage time beyond a single charge—a feature valued by those often away from power sources.
