Gigaset
ME, Gigaset ME Pure and Gigaset ME Pro
The
Gigaset ME, the Gigaset ME Pure and Gigaset ME Pro have been unwrapped. All
three handsets are made from an alloy consisting of stainless steel and
lightweight aluminum.
The
Gigaset ME features a Gorilla Glass 3 protected 5-inch display with a
resolution of 1080x1920. That is a pixel density of 441ppi. The Snapdragon
810 SoC is under the hood, although the octa-core CPU has been underclocked to
1.8 GHz. The Adreno 430 GPU handles graphics. 3 GB of RAM is inside, along with
32 GB of expandable internal storage. Both the rear camera (16 MP) and the
front-facing camera (8 MP) feature an f/2.0 aperture, allowing you to take
pictures in low-light conditions. A fingerprint scanner is included and the
phone offers dual SIM capabilities. A 3000 mAh battery (with QuickCharge 2.0)
powers the device, which does support 4G LTE connectivity. Android 5.1 is
pre-installed with the Gigaset UI running on top.
The
Gigaset ME Pure is a lower priced version of the ME with a 13 MP rear camera,
2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage. The Snapdragon 615 SoC replaces the
Snapdragon 810, but a larger capacity battery (3320 mAh) is included. The
Gigaset ME Pro is a premium model with a 20 MP rear camera, a 4000 mAh battery,
3 GB of RAM and a larger 5.5-inch screen offered.
The
Gigaset ME is now available in the UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium,
Spain, Italy, Poland and Turkey. It is priced at the equivalent of US$ 530.
The other two models will be released at a future date.
