The criticized by some reviewers voice quality (dull, noisy, ...), I can not so disturbing. I put on a phone not the claims, as they are found in the high-end HiFi Group. As long as I can follow the words of the interlocutor effortlessly and he / she also my remarks, the device fulfills its purpose completely. And that is clearly the case here.
The rape of the Fritz! Fons to a playback device for music on internet radio you should not do that, however. However, this applies also for viewing video on a smartphone. For both purposes exemplified there are more suitable playback options. This also applies to the further possibilities of the device, that go beyond the actual telephony: Read e-mails, read RSS feeds, listen to podcasts of the Chancellor.
I have purchased the product in order to use it to make phone calls and work with the very good teeth for Fritz Box properly:
- First-time application of the phone at the Fritz Box is easy. Soon after the firmware update of the telephone service. Works!
- Phone number in the Fritz box can be easily filled at the computer and is then immediately available to all Fritz Fons available!.
- Missed calls are displayed on the Fritz! Fon by significantly flashing backlit button!.
- The built-in answering machine, the Fritz! Box can be then very easy to listen. The service opens up even without reading the manual.
- The radio range is impressive well.
- Very practical: Normally huge clock display on the monochrome display without backlighting legible.
For exterior design:
- The size of the device and its surface structure can be, even with longer conversations, handle pleasant.
- The good-sized, individually emerging from the housing surface keys with positive click action can be easily operated without accidentally pressing the adjacent key.
- Only the combination of backlighting and label the keys seem to be devised by an intern. The silvery light lacquered keys have in the paint gaps in the form of their respective label. If you turn back lighting this creates a good contrast in daylight: dark lettering on light button. Light lettering on light button: the then switches on backlighting for the abolition of the contrast Referring now the device from the charger to operate it, so provides. What is this? Took place in the context of development, the release of the keyboard pattern with AVM about at night or the designers have once again prevailed over the engineers? Must surely ... I have the remedy, as I have the "Power Save" option is enabled under Menu / Settings / Display / Lighting. This may sound good at first, and also solves the daytime the contrast problem: The Tastaturhinterleuchtung never goes on. Since I anyway never operator the phone is in total darkness, this is a viable solution for me. However there is one star deduction for this constructive detail blunder.
Despite the outlined key problem I wish to express to the Fritz! Fon M2 a buy recommendation, I am even followed himself.
