Terrible landline phone product

Incomprehensible controls and instructions for this phone. The sound quality is not very good. I gave up after a month and bought another phone from a different manufacturer.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • There are problems

Good Price - Office Electronics

The product is well made and easy to use, especially for the elderly. The only drawback: the assembly instructions are complicated and the booklet font is so small that it is difficult for elderly people with visual impairments to see it.

Pros
  • Sequins
Cons
  • High Price

Lots of features to try!

The phone is fine. However, the instructions for use can be simplified for less technically savvy people. Not as easy to use as the instructions make it seem! Thank god for great kids!

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Only available in black

New replacement phone.

I'm getting used to this new phone. I like that it's light. I was surprised that it was made in Germany. Being a senior phone. I still have to get used to a lot. You need YouTube in English and German to learn how to use this phone. It would help.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • will be added later

Poor quality: office electronics

I had high hopes for this very expensive phone. After a few months, the numbers on the phone keypad disappeared and the volume stopped working. I contacted support, basically they told me we can't replace or fix your phone. Happy. The phone is not worth the price. Keep shopping.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Only available in white

Not ideal for home use, best on landline phones

I was excited to set up this phone and even bought two extra headsets. Unfortunately, after a month I went back to my old reserve (I'm glad I didn't throw it away). It has some nice features but is more of a small office system. It's almost impossible to find missed calls and the caller ID is incomplete. Sound quality is good, but who needs a flashlight built into a headset? The instructions are good but not the clearest. I would not recommend that. Unfortunately, I foolishly threw away the…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Makes me angry
