Advice on which House Phone to get??
« on: January 29, 2013, 03:58:53 pm »
Am after replacing our old BT Synergy 4100 triple set (with answer phone). Been a few years since I looked at phones, any advice on what's what and what to avoid or the best one to get.

Thanks peeps!  :happy2:

Panasonic ones. Really reliable. well made, clear & loud enough for even my mum to use. They take AAA rechargeable batteries, would have preferred AA like everything else. How picky is that  :wink:

Those Siemens although expensive are the nicest handsets I've seen and used.  I've got some colour Panasonic ones and although nice, with colour screen, loud ring tones etc.  I find the menu systems a bit crap... Tbh, I find that on Panasonic TV's too.  If I was buying again it would be the SL785 from Siemens.

Siemens are good. We've got a twin set and they work flawlessly
