Aren’t Landline Phones being phased out?
It is true that landlines are going digital with BT set to replace the old PTSN network with new digital technology, called VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), which is sometimes referred to as Digital Voice or
Digital Phone. Landline phones will still work and all the models we stock are “Digital Ready” and will simply connect to your broadband router instead of your old telephone socket.

Factors to Consider When Buying a Landline Phone
You landline phone should last you for years, so it's important that you make the right choice. Think carefully about the features that are going to be most important to you. Here are some of the top features to consider:
Number of Handsets
If you need multiple handsets for different rooms, consider buying a set with two or more handsets. Some models can be expanded up to Six Handsets and others only up to Three or Four Handsets.
Sound Quality
Clear and high-quality sound is essential for effective communication. Look for models that offer HD voice or enhanced sound profiles. We generally recommend Gigaset for this reason, as their phones perform brilliantly when it comes to sound, but other manufacturers also make phones with extra-loud modes, which are ideal for older users.
Answering Machine
An integrated answering machine can be a valuable feature, allowing you to receive messages when you’re unavailable. Check the recording time and ease of access to messages.
Ease of Use
Consider models with big buttons, extra-loud volume, clear displays, and simple menus, especially if the phone will be used by elderly individuals or those with visual and/or hearing impairments.
Call Blocking
To avoid nuisance calls, look for phones with call blocking features. Advanced models can block a large number of unwanted callers.
Range
Whilst all cordless phones offer the same range of 50m indoors and up to 300m outdoors this is just the maximum capability of DECT technology. Range can vary from brand to brand to brand. If you live in an especially large or old home with thick walls then consider a model from Gigaset or Panasonic whose models are Repeater compatible as this will allow you to extend the range of necessary.
Price
Set a budget and find a phone that offers the best features within your price range. Higher-end models come with advanced features, but there are also budget-friendly options with essential functionalities.
Choosing the right landline phone can enhance your telephone calls, providing reliability, clear sound quality, and useful features.
