Gigaset presented with the GS170 the successor of last year’s GS160, the ComputerBase in the Smartphone test up to 200 euros closer. The successor brings however only two innovations, one of which would be solved by software update also for the GS160: Android 7.0 nougat (test) and 2 GB of memory.
The GS170 replaces the GS160 presented in December of the last year, which is not already on the website of Gigaset to be found. The new smartphone is, however, more of a software update with a pinch of more memory than a real new one. Gigaset has taken over the design and features of the predecessor one-to-one, including the price, which is again with non-binding 149 euros.
Draw shortcuts on the display
For this, buyers receive an Android 7.0 smartphone with a five-inch large HD display, now 2 instead of 1 GB of memory and a MT6737-SoC from MediaTek, equipped with four Cortex A53 cores and a small Mali graphics unit. On the display, users can again draw letters to perform shortcuts. A “B” could then lead to the browser, a “W” to WhatsApp.
Multicolor as accessory
Gigaset offers the smartphone in black at the factory, but for the price of around 10 euros each, there are alternative backpacks in the colors “Urban Blue” and “Mokka”, which are easy to exchange. Under the rear panel are the exchangeable battery with 2,500 mAh, two SIM slots for dual SIM operation and a microSD slot that accepts up to 128 GB of memory cards to extend the 16 GB of internal memory of the smartphone.
The Gigaset GS170 is now available and will be shipped within two to three business days without additional shipping charges. For the express delivery are 6 euros to be paid.
