The GIGASET ME and GIGASET ME Pure's high-contrast 5-inch full HD display is perfectly
aligned with most users' everyday needs. The full HD GIGASET ME Pro with its 5.5-inch
display provides ideal conditions for large-scale gaming and entertainment applications.
Innovative photo technologyÂ
Using innovative professional photo technologies, the sapphire-protected cameras of
the GIGASET ME series make every image shine, whether you're a photo enthusiast,
Instagrammer or just taking the occasional snapshot. Pictures are taken in the blink of an
eye with a specially developed up to 0.16-second autofocus of the GIGASET ME and the
GIGASET ME pure and 0.2-second autofocus of the GIGASET ME pro. All models feature a
high-resolution 8 MP front-facing camera with a 120-degree wide-angle lens. While the
GIGASET ME's 16 MP and the GIGASET ME Pure's 13 MP main cameras are already at the cutting
edge of technology, the GIGASET ME Pro's 20 MP camera will make the hearts of even the
most demanding users beat faster. The camera provides excellent depth of focus, while the
up to 5 cm macro is perfect for close-ups. The GIGASET ME's and ME Pro's main camera has a
two-tone flash for an optimal mix of cold and warm light, the ME Pure has a single colour
flash. The GIGASET ME series' innovative Focus Later feature is inspired by professional
SLR technology. A small motor allows users to focus a section of an image even after the
photo is taken. The GIGASET ME series have a resolution of up to 2K for videos.
Optimized hi-fi soundÂ
From use with sound systems or external speakers, the GIGASET ME series' entire sound
design wins users over with its consistency and harmony. Its high-end HD sound design
meets all modern requirements for voice quality and audio playback. All GIGASET models
feature a dedicated Hi-Fi chipset and include Dirac HD Sound(R), which is optimised for
music playback, as well as CSR Bluetooth(R) audio technology, offering wireless
transmission via Bluetooth in CD quality. In addition, the GIGASET ME series supports
high-quality formats such as FLAC, WAV and APE for unbeatable sound on the go. GIGASET's
commitment to the smartphones' distinctive design is reflected in the look of the
high-quality in-ear headphones, featuring flat ribbon cables that avoid tangled cords. Two
built-in microphones in the smartphone provide top voice quality even in noisy
environments. While one microphone records background noise with the help of a special
chipset and automatically filters it out, the second microphone is optimised for speech.
Limitless performance Â
With the GIGASET ME and GIGASET ME Pro's SnapdragonTM 810 and the GIGASET ME Pure's
SnapdragonTM 615, all models have advanced, sustainable 64-bit eight-core processors.
Combined with the AdrenoTM 430 graphics processor (GIGASET ME Pure: AdrenoTM 405), GIGASET
delivers top performance for efficient multitasking and a superfluid UI experience based
on Android version 5.1.1 as well as the most sophisticated applications and 3D games.
Generous 3 gigabytes of DDR4 memory (GIGASET ME Pure: 2 gigabytes, DDR 3) also support the
excellent user experience. With 32 gigabytes of internal memory (GIGASET ME Pure: 16
gigabytes), the GIGASET ME series offers enough space for music, photos and video files.
Users wanting more can easily and inexpensively purchase an external micro-SD card for 128
gigabytes and use one of the dual sim slots for additional storage capacity. GIGASET ME
models are among the first smartphones in the world to have the most up-to-date Type C USB
port. The port is symmetrical eliminating the need to work out which way the cable fits
and the risk of damaged USB ports. In addition, the new standard means that smartphones
can be recharged up to twice as fast as before while data transfer rates are dramatically
increased. GIGASET is also a pioneer in terms of battery capacity. The GIGASET ME
generously dimensioned rechargeable battery is optimised for energy efficiency, and users
can make calls for up to 24 hours straight or enjoy music for up to 34 hours.
Intuitive lifestyle featuresÂ
Each model supports two LTE high-speed category 6 SIM cards with a download
transmission rate of up to 300 MBit/s (GIGASET ME Pure: 150 Mbit/s). Users can choose
their own provider, as the GIGASET ME series comes without a contract. The fingerprint
sensor at the back features the latest encryption technology and ensures fast and secure
access, as well as allowing users to intuitively answer incoming calls. In addition, the
pre-installed antivirus solution from Avira secures sensitive user data and protects it
during online activities. With the integrated infrared transmitter, all GIGASET ME models
can be turned into a fully functioning remote control and comes with a preinstalled
database covering 95% of existing devices and it can also learn additional devices. The
GIGASET ME Health Centre gives users access to a comprehensive collection of sensor
modules, including a step counter and heart rate monitor. Thanks to a UV sensor, users
also have the opportunity to measure harmful ultraviolet radiation to ensure adequate sun
protection.
Comprehensive selection of extrasÂ
All three models come with a robust Type C USB ribbon cable and an adapter for
different countries. In the GIGASET online store, users can also find extras including
different cases and skins for protection. All GIGASET ME devices will become commercially
available in Europe and China in autumn 2015. Prices will be 349 EUR for the entry-level
model GIGASET ME Pure, 469 EUR for the standard model GIGASET ME and 549 EUR for the
premium model GIGASET ME Pro.
