There is simply more below the surface: The new GSB 600 NFC Bluetooth speaker delivers full sound thanks to its refined technology Simple controls, clever technology and up-to-the-minute audio streaming ensure that the GSB 600 NFC produces the right sound. Nuremberg, 5 August 2015: Your favourite music, all the time and everywhere? Mobile audio solutions mean that this is no longer a problem. Together with a smartphone or tablet, new gadgets can play back any playlist, wherever you are. The Grundig GSB 600 NFC shows how much technology can be packed into such devices. It automatically detects receiving and transmitting devices via its NFC connection. And the loudspeaker's convenient controls have earned it a Plus X Award for ease of use.

Equipped with Bluetooth and NFC Uncomplicated and reliable – that is how a connection to a mobile device should be. With normal Bluetooth, devices use a radio signal to identify each other and are selected manually. However, there is a trend towards connecting devices using NFC (Near Field Communication). Physical proximity between two devices is sufficient and no manual selection is required. However, devices should be just a few centimetres apart to connect without difficulties. The system allows both devices to act as the transmitter and receiver and they can usually connect in a fraction of a second. The best thing about NFC is that once two devices have been connected, when they are used together in the future they will connect automatically. Optimum convenience and attractive design

As if that weren't enough, the GSB 600 NFC loudspeaker also impresses with its shapely design and, above all, its simple interface. Just five buttons allow the device to be controlled easily; it can even handle hands-free calls. It is no wonder that the GSB 600 NFC has already won a Plus X Award for ease of use, the world's biggest prize for innovations in the technology, sport and
lifestyle sectors. Availability The GSB 600 NFC Bluetooth loudspeaker will be available from all good retailers from September 2015. Product features: Grundig GSB 600 NFC Bluetooth loudspeaker • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
