Gigaset Premium S700 VOIP Cordless Phone, Four Handsets

Currently I only have it set up as a standard landline phone - but it’s voip ready if we want. So what do I love about it? It’s great - not only does it look great - small and neat - and we love the visuals - the clock on the front looks great along with the text colour. But also we can have it in whichever room we want without needing two handsets. Because of the box. The small box sits next to and plugs into the phone socket. The phone itself can be placed in any room or anywhere there is a plug socket for the charging cradle. It’s very neat and no wires everywhere. Previously our old phone had to sit on top of the fridge freezer to reach the phone socket. With this new Gigaset one we have it in the lounge and it has a cosy friendly glow (and that nice clock face!) that looks very smart in the lounge. I love the small size (have small hands) and the fact the style is like an old Nokia mobile phone - all very easy to use. Has a big thumbs up from me - and less wires around. One word of warning- there is an option to set “call a number by any key press “. Be careful doing this and read the instructions carefully! I decided to set the one touch number to 999 - having just come out of hospital. Which I did. But then didn’t like the display it left on the screen so decuded to turn that option off again. You guessed it - every key I pressed in my attempt to turn it off - called 999 - over and over! In the end I had to apologise and explain I had set up a quick dial number and was trying to turn it off. I probably didn’t do something right - but be warned if setting up a quick dial number!

The handsets themselves are smart looking and of good quality. However I have tried several times to transfer my iPhone Contacts to any one of my four newly purchased Gigaset phones using ContactsPush with no success. The prospect of adding contacts individually doesn't bear thinking about. Someone sort this out please!

It was very easy to set up and use. Great sound quality and thanks to Bluetooth, it is wonderful to use with a headset.

Quick delivery, stylish phones w good sound quality and features

I had a Panasonic phone for year, which I highly regarded for its quality but decided to give this a try for Bluetooth and the VOIP capabilities as that seems the direction we're headed. The base puts out a signal over the entire house (which is over 3 floors) without any dead spots. I used to lose the signal about 10 foot into the garden with the Panasonic but these manage to make it more than double that. Transferring contacts was easy enough and highly convenient indeed. Phone is surprisingly easy to use for the level of features it has and the intercom calls between handsets is excellent. All in all a great set of phones!
