Aesthetic side, the phone is simple, elegant, showy touches, well apart from each other (so no risk of making a wrong number) and soft to the touch. The screen is nice and comfortable (the background is orange when you lift the handset with the date and time (one day before the time is displayed.) When the phone is put back on its base 2 small notes confirm that it has been engaged (no surprise and practice on a possible discharge of the battery). Regarding the installation of the telephone, it is very simple. Just leave loading 8:00 handsets by removing the battery protection (in practice less time because they are already virtually loaded when received). Then plug them (removing the sticker that protects the screen) to a phone jack and an electrical outlet to the main phone, and power outlets for other handsets. The easiest way is to install them in the evening before going to bed. For her I was amazed, I think it is better than the Siemens (Gigaset -C470 Duo) I had before. The sound is more "pure" crystalline, with a feeling of being close to the person. It also has over setting level to the volume level (listening or speaker). Generally speaking the philips functions are simple to use, no need to read the manual, directory, alarms, voice (...). Like many phone of this range, it is very intuitive.
Another important advantage: the directory will fit on a single phone! No need (like my previous) to return all the numbers on all phones! Other handsets will automatically update for all settings!
In terms of setting, few options are editable. This is not the gadget and it is not worse! The only complaint I could make is that for him the call must be removed from its base phone and press the green button (button to take the call). Unfortunately, this feature can not be changed in the settings.
Regarding the answering machine at her engagement can listen to the message along its registration and can intercept the call (all phone brands do not). Operation is very simple! In short a good device has a fair price.
