Description
Extreme conditions require special equipment – like the Gigaset GX290 made of solid material. Thanks to the metal frame and reinforced two-component TPU injection-molded housing, the smartphone is both waterproof and robust against dirt and impacts. The optimized display guarantees full visibility even in direct sunlight or wet conditions, while a long-life battery and the powerful processor ensure absolute reliability even under harsh conditions. The exterior of the GX290 convinces mainly through an ergonomic design and good grip, which makes the device the perfect companion for industrial workers, outdoor athletes and nature lovers.
Solid and almost indestructible: HD+ V-Notch display with Gorilla glass
Wet hands, slippery surfaces or dirty environments – your smartphone is often damaged faster than you think. So that you can still enjoy the impressive 6.1" 19.5:9 HD+ V-Notch display for excellent optical performance and impressive pictures, the Gigaset GX290 is equipped with the Corning Gorilla Glass 3. This cover glass has a scratch-resistant and dirt-repellent surface and is robust enough to withstand thermal shocks without any damage. In addition, the daylight-adaptive display enables reading even under particularly bright light conditions – ideal for outdoor activities.
Lasts for days: Durable 6200 mAh rechargeable battery with quick charge function
Always and everywhere, even if the next socket is miles away – the Gigaset GX290 is a real energy bundle. Rely on up to 24 hours of talk time and 25 days of standby time – so you can stay in touch even in remote locations. And when the power drops: Thanks to the MTK Pump Express+ (PE+) technology, the battery is quickly recharged. If you are on the move for longer, you can also use your device as a power bank. Via USB On-The-Go you can charge torches, headphones or other external USB devices.
Powerful and efficient: Powerful Octa-Core processor
A smartphone with mountaineering qualities: With its Octa-Core processor for up to 2.0 GHz, the Gigaset GX290 brings you higher – this includes accelerated performance and smooth use of all apps simultaneously. Best of all, your power consumption is still low. The Mali G71 MP2 graphics processing unit provides high-end graphics performance while increasing the energy efficiency of the device. Thanks to the latest mobile phone standards such as 4G LTE up to CAT-6 with VoLTE and VoWiFi you can also make calls with higher voice quality directly via your fast Internet connection.
Capture the best moments – day and night
Greetings from the summit cross, impressions of the last canoe tour or pictures directly from the beach – show friends and family how active you are. With the 13 MP + 2 MP dual camera including Sony sensor and ArcSoft® optimization, you can record your experiences in excellent quality. Even in different lighting conditions, noise suppression enables sharp pictures, which become even more professional through extended functions such as AI-mode, Ultra-HD mode and night mode. Perfect for extreme environments: Shoot your photos easily with just one hand. And thanks to external MicroSDTM-card you can access up to 256 GB storage space.
Hard shell: Water, dust and impact tested
No chance for raindrops, dust clouds and co! The Gigaset GX290 defies extreme conditions, for a carefree use in the open air and at work. Equipped to the industry standard IP68 ("ingress protection"), the device can withstand full immersion in water up to 1.2 meters deep for 30 minutes. In addition, the housing is dust-proof and thus can be used without any problem in dusty or sandy industrial environments. Even massive shocks cannot harm the smartphone: Thanks to the metal frame reinforced two-component TPU injection-molded housing, the GX290 withstands the drop test on a steel plate from a height of 1.20 m completely without any damage.
Smart Core: Useful features for on the go
Especially in extreme environments, small tools are often required. Equipped with many useful functions, the Gigaset GX290 is therefore the perfect companion. Use NFC ("Near Field Communication") to make payments on the move easily via smartphone or charge your device completely unbound and comfortably thanks to wireless charging. GPS, A-GPS and Glonass also ensure that you always have a plan: Exact localization with precise navigation allows you to find your way even in narrow cities or lonely mountain areas. Finally, face recognition and fingerprint sensor enable the secure unlocking of your smartphone – simply, quickly and without complicated passwords.
Even smarter, even faster: Pure Android™ 9.0 Pie
Take advantage of sophisticated technology in extreme conditions: The Gigaset GX290 is equipped with the new operating system Pure Android™ 9.0 Pie and thus has better battery life, performance, stability and energy efficiency through artificial intelligence. In addition, restricted access rights for apps running in the background enhance security. The operation becomes even faster and more pleasant through extended Bluetooth functions as well as improved functions for copying and pasting.
The environment is important to us
We at Gigaset are very concerned with sustainability – this starts with the recycling of production materials and extends right up to technological innovations and logistical processes. The Gigaset GX290 is also supplied in a packaging made of recyclable and compostable grass fibers. This fast-growing raw material is sourced from local sources and can be produced without any chemical additives, with significantly lower CO2 emissions and significantly reduced water and energy consumption. In addition, plastic is completely dispensed with in the inner packaging except for the adhesive film for the protection of the display. This is just a first step on a long road to more sustainable production. That is why we are working on sustainable concepts for our common future every day.
