Manual of product AS280 Duo
Editorial note
The Gigaset AS280 Duo stands out for its excellent communication performance, particularly due to its maximum range of 300 meters outdoors and 50 meters indoors. This flexibility of use is especially appreciated in various environments. Moreover, its impressive battery life of 25 hours in conversation and 210 hours on standby significantly reduces the need for frequent recharges, thus providing a smooth and uninterrupted user experience. The modern and aesthetic design of this phone, combined with backlit buttons, enhances visibility in low-light conditions, making its use even more enjoyable. In terms of features, the Gigaset AS280 Duo allows for a personalized user experience with 10 different ringtones and a directory of 80 contacts. However, the lack of polyphonic ringtones and VIP groups may limit the customization of alerts, which could disappoint some users looking for more variety. Nevertheless, the small monochrome screen (1.42 inches) may pose readability issues, especially for users with visual impairments. Additionally, the limited compatibility, particularly the lack of support for Mac systems, could restrict its use for some. Finally, while the outdoor range is impressive, the indoor range of 50 meters may prove insufficient in large houses or multi-story buildings. Overall, the Gigaset AS280 Duo offers good value for money, but it is important to consider these few limitations before making a choice.Score details
