If they can get the manufacturing capacity and export finally going with the gs5, they have the possibility to compete with nokias and motorola. The user replaceable battery is a selling point, with rights to repair being already in politics

    And this ladies and gentlemen is why Europe has no longer any phone industry anymore.

    I mean, 299€ for a phone with a replacable battery, and average to mediocre specs ?

    I really like Siemens back in the day, but this is just a shadow of what Siemens used to be back in the day,

      210g? I'd expect that kind of weight for a ceramic phone like the Mi Mix3 5G, not a plastic phone with a moderate sized display and battery.

        joe nodden, 29 Oct 2021The price is horrible. The design is nice. The performance ... moreDid you try the device, so how do you know the camera sucks?

          It is good to see a European smart phone player in the game. I wish them good luck, and I hope we will see a flagship "Made in Germany" phone as well.

            My only issue is the none rectangular screen.

                    Good for them. Not a phone that I would personally buy but I hope they do well. We could make for a comeback in removable batteries in the entry and mid range segments. There is no reason why that can't be, as ingress protection is a meme, just take good care of your phone, and removable batteries are good for maintenance and longevity of devices.

                      Good to see some lesser known companies still offering removable batteries. Let me tell you one incident. I used a phone heavily in 2014 or 2015 for almost a year and one day, the back panel opened up on its own and came out a pregnant looking battery.. Swollen. Still I feel kind insecure using phones with non removable batteries because I have heard and seen Lithium ion and Lithium polymer batteries burn, catch fire and explode. Few years ago, I read some scientist were successful in developing Lithium batteries that don't catch fire. I wonder what happened ever since.

                        joe nodden, 29 Oct 2021The price is horrible. The design is nice. The performance ... moreActually nothing is horrible about this phone, I'll better have a phone with good plastic than glass, and I also prefer LCD over AMOLED, it depends on the quality. The price maybe it's a bit high but maybe it deserves it, never had a Gigaset phone.

                                  Beauiful German Quality. I will buy Gigaset.

                                    The price is horrible. The design is nice. The performance is horrible. The cameras are eh. I'm certain this has an LCD so that's probably horrible. The plastic is horrible, unless that very plastic looking back is somehow not plastic.

                                    I'm tired of the "German engineering" nonsense. Nobody cares if it was made in Germany but the halfwits who saw 1 good car made there and thought everything else made there was good.
