Editorial report

Gigaset GS5 technical sheet

The Gigaset GS5 suits buyers looking for an Android phone with wireless charging and expandable storage, provided top performance is not the priority. Its 4 GB of RAM and MediaTek Helio G85 put its hardware below that of most phones of its time. The 128 GB storage capacity is typical and can be expanded. Its overall NeoScore is 4.7.

The 6.3″ display has a pixel density of 410 ppi, among the highest of its time, but its 450-nit peak brightness is lower than on most phones from the same period. The GS5 is also heavier and thicker than most: it weighs 210 g and measures 10.4 mm thick. A 48 MP camera is joined by an 8 MP ultrawide and a 16 MP front camera; its camera offering is typical, and the 48 MP camera lacks optical image stabilization.

The 4500 mAh battery supports 18 W wired charging and 15 W wireless charging, whose power is among the highest of its time. Android 11, NFC, a 3.5 mm audio jack, Dual Nano-SIM and USB Type-C round out the features. The GS5 makes most sense for someone who values pixel density, wireless charging and expandable storage more than processing power. Performance is its clearest limitation.
