GE - SKYPE - Dect 6.0 Cordless phone Reviews
I bought the inexpensive Jabra headset for 2.5mm plug and it makes the experience even better. I have the Skype subscription for US and Canada where I just pay about $4 a month plus I rent a skype in phone number for my local area and it works just great. The gadget is responsive and has all features I can ask for in Skype. This phone is just great. Sounds is so clear and crisp, with no cuttoffs, much better than in the computer. I definitively recommend it. Feels great to walk away from the computer with this phone.
PROS - Easy hardware setup. Easy software setup. Features: mute, redial, flash, etc. Pressing dial pad numbers feels soft and rubbery (You have to press the numbers firmly so fast dialing is difficult). CONS - Cheap plastic feel and look. No problems when calling companies with voice menu with number options.
Firmware automatically updated itself. Very usable. CONCLUSION - Though there is room for improvement, this phone functions very well. VOICE QUALITY - About 80% as loud and clear as land line phone.
It simply doesn't work. It is a shame that I have been sick and unable to return this product. It is blocked and there is no way to unblock it.
I recommend it without reservation. This little phone is one of the best purchases I have ever made. Quality is superb, and it was delivered promptly. In every way, it has outperformed expectations.
I don't know what the firmware would improve, as the phone performs well enough with the current version. - Choose to dial number from memory or 'as entered' using Skype or landline service provider. - Save's me loads of cash on international phonecalls to landlines. - Make Skype calls without needing a PC (the phone has a base station that connects directly your wireless router - I use a Netgear router). - I like the different ring tone for incoming landline and incoming Skype calls. PRO's:. It performs well, gives little trouble, and saves me loads of cash on international telephone bills by using Skype.
- Cordless handset with speakerphone and headset port.
- Firmware upgrade does not seem to work (user error perhaps).
Battery life is fantastic, and with the telephone headset port, I can spend a full 8+ hours on conference calls without having to worry about the handset dying.
- Save even more money on free phonecalls to other Skype PC or telephone users.
I love this phone and would have given it 5 stars if I could get the firmware upgrade to work.
I have been using this phone for over a year now and it does what it says on the box.
CON's.
Call quality is typically excellent.
- Battery life.
