Review: A lightning strike ‘took out’ my old phone recently and I needed a quick replacement for my business. This arrived within a couple of days and overall, it is satisfactory for the price tag attached. Pro’s: If you want to get in contact with someone long-distance, this is a remarkable device… at the push of a button – bingo – it doesn’t matter where they are, you can still talk to them ? It’s relatively cheap (£54.99 at the time of this review) and it does the job – makes/receives phone calls/offers caller display, answerphone (and other basic expectations such as speakerphone etc). It is compact and the handsets are exceptionally lightweight to hold. There’s a decent selection of ringtones (approx. 40), and call blocking is available for up to 50 numbers. You can also block all withheld and international numbers. (The manual is somewhat lacking in this department, so you will need to figure this out yourself). It’s very easy to record/set your own voicemail and you can set it to either leave a message or basically stop the caller in their tracks by telling them you’re unavailable and to call back later… I like this function because if you’re e.g. going away, you might not want to divert your landline to your mobile, but you also probably won’t want customers thinking you’ve ignored their message because you haven’t called them back – this way, you decide whether or not your customer can leave a message. The handsets operate separately (which could also be viewed as a con depending upon your requirements), which means that you can set each one with a different ringtone, night mode/silent setting etc (and can even name the handset e.g. lounge/kitchen/downstairs WC – whatever!) Con’s: A massive downside for me is the lack of quick ‘silence function’. I’ve become used to phones that you can silence (until further notice) with ‘one click’. Unfortunately, with this phone you will need to set the phone to ‘night mode’ to silence calls which means scrolling through the menu to select the year, date, time etc – followed by the start and finish time that you would like to silence calls. So, if you’re looking for a sneaky nap or five minutes peace and quiet, there’s no quick way to silence/unsilence calls. However, the upside to this is that once night mode is set, the answerphone/messages being left are also silent which seems to be rare with most phones with the ‘quick silence function’. (There is little more irritating than silencing your phone so you can have a quick snooze, only to then be woken by someone leaving a voicemail!) It’s worth noting that you will also need to silence the base station for this function to be effective (and also each handset because as mentioned above, they work independently of each other). The answerphone is VERY muffled and it’s hard to figure out what the caller is saying let alone retrieve their number. (The caller display function will at least enable you to retrieve the number to make a call back). The ‘Caller History’ function is pitiful. There is no quick way to redial a previously dialled number or missed call and you can’t delete all missed calls in one hit – you have to scroll painfully through and delete them one at a time. This phone lacks ‘easy shortcuts’ full stop and everything involves sifting through various long-winded menus. The manual is dreadful, and you’ll be better off just ‘playing’ with the phone and familiarising yourself with the settings The phone signal isn’t great and even in close proximity to the base station it cuts off intermittently.
