Manual of product S820A
Editorial note
The Gigaset S820A is a phone that stands out for its modern and elegant design, accompanied by backlit buttons that make it easy to use even in low light. Its storage capacity of 500 entries in the directory and its built-in answering machine of 55 minutes make it a practical choice for effective call management. In terms of performance, the Gigaset S820A offers an impressive range of 300 meters outdoors, allowing for flexible use. However, its indoor range of 50 meters may prove insufficient in larger spaces, thus limiting its effectiveness in certain situations. The battery life is one of the strengths of this model, with a standby time of 250 hours and 20 hours of talk time. This ensures prolonged use without the need to frequently recharge the device. Despite its many advantages, the Gigaset S820A has some drawbacks. The lack of a vibrating feature may disappoint those who prefer discreet notifications. Additionally, while the 2.4-inch touchscreen is convenient, its size may seem limited for certain tasks, hindering navigation or reading messages. The absence of a navigation button could also make using some features less intuitive. Overall, the Gigaset S820A represents good value for money, especially considering its useful features and good performance. However, some limitations, such as the lack of a vibrator and indoor range, should be considered before purchase.Score details
