The new Gigaset GS290: Smartphone highlight ‘Made in Germany’
Press release
Gigaset will present the successor to the successful GS280 and its new flagship model at the end of the year: The GS290 comes with a powerful battery and huge 6.3-inch full-HD+ display, can be charged wirelessly and boasts near-field communication (NFC), for example to permit cashless payment. The GS290 can accommodate private and business SIM cards simultaneously and so is the classy and reliable companion for eventful working days or a long night of partying. It is now the fourth smartphone to be produced by Gigaset in North Rhine-Westphalia and goes on sale at stores and online retailers at the RRP of EUR269.00 as of November 2019. Phoning, chatting, listening to music, reading a newspaper or book, cashless payment, video streaming, managing appointments, writing e-mails, taking snapshots, transferring money, booking train tickets, gaming, checking bus timetables, reserving a vehicle in a car-sharing scheme – ten years ago, it was almost unimaginable what a smartphone can now do in 2019. The demands of everyday life are increasing. Smartphones help us cope with the wealth of tasks, yet also offer relaxation and entertainment. Gigaset addresses changes in customers’ needs with its new GS290. The device’s highlights, apart from its customary powerful battery and large display, are wireless charging, NFC and the dual main camera with ArcSoft(R) optimization. “We aim to set a new flair in our class with the Gigaset GS290 and are presenting a genuine highlight at the end of the year,” says Andreas Merker, VP Smartphones at Gigaset. Juice and power in abundance Like all state-of-the-art Gigaset smartphones, the Gigaset GS290 goes a long time with needing to be recharged. That is ensured by the exceptionally powerful 4,700-mAh battery with its advanced power-saving system – when its capacity is low, the device automatically switches to battery saver mode if desired. As a result, the device lets users play music for up to 34 hours or watch videos for a maximum of eight hours, and offers a talk time of eight hours and ample standby time of 156 hours. Even after a full working day of business calls and intensive e-mail communication, the Gigaset GS290 still has enough power for a long night of partying with lots of photos, selfies and videos. Rapid recharging Better photography with a second camera Use the smartphone to pay and unlock it with your face The fingerprint sensor and Face Recognition make unlocking the GS290 particularly simple. These technologies are quick and secure – the phone is unlocked immediately without the need to enter a PIN. The fingerprint sensor can also be used to scroll through pages on screen, take a call or open the camera. All-round protection The GS290 “Made in Germany” comes in a recyclable, compostable grass packaging comprising – to a proportion of 30 percent – grass fibers from the region around Bocholt. Gigaset has also fully eliminated additional plastic materials in the packaging. The Gigaset GS290 in the colors Pearl White and Titanium Grey goes on sale at stores and online retailers and in the Gigaset online shop at the RRP of EUR269.00 from November 2019.
