Philips launches new range of Gogear portable digital media players in the UAE
Players address demand for high-quality, uninterrupted entertainment
Philips, the global leader in lifestyle technology, has launched a new range of GoGear portable digital media players in the UAE in a bid to satisfy market demand for high-quality audiovisual entertainment on the go. Composed of five brand-new models and led by the flagship GoGear Opus, the range is set to meet customers’ entertainment needs in acoustics technology and all-round value.
Spurred by increased consumer knowledge on available technologies, demand for high-performance yet competitively-priced gadgets has grown dramatically in the portable entertainment market. The GoGear range of personal media players is Philips’ response to this paradigm shift, making Philips’ FullSound technology, an innovation which enhances the quality of compressed digital music, available to the mass consumer segment through select models in the GoGear line.
In addition to an enriched stereophonic experience, select GoGear video players such as the GoGear Opus, Aria, and ViBE are equipped with an integrated internet video download functionality that allows internal storage of streamed media from video sharing sites such as Youtube, MySpace or Google Video.
Completing the newly-launched range are the GoGear Spark and Mix, Philips’ portable audio players. Powered by Philips FullSound Technology, the Spark features improved audio dynamics and packs enough space for 27 hours of uninterrupted performance on a single charge. The GoGear Mix, apart from its music-playing capabilities, includes a built-in voice recorder, extending the pocket MP3 player’s functionality beyond most others in the entry-level segment of digital music players.
The models from the new GoGear line are now available at leading electronics stores across the UAE at the following prices: Opus (AED599), Aria (AED399), Vibe (AED299), Spark (AED229), and Mix (AED169).
