BT Studio 4100
by reviewingqueen Working in an office I have tried and tested many different types of phones. The original phone I was using when I first started this job was then BT studio 4100. This is a cordless phone which comes with a small docking base. Both the phone and the docking base are silver. The shape of both of them are quite rounded too ... giving them a modern look. The actual phone has many features. On the menu you can access the call list - this shows recent calls that have been made and recieved. The phone book where you can store your contact telephone numbers. The settings where you can adjust features on the phone and on the docking station. You can change volumes, ringtones and also whether the docking station rings or not. On the menu you can also reset the phone back to its original settings. On the handset you have other options too. There is a secrecy button which can be used to 'mute' the calls so whoever is on the other end cannot hear what is being said. This is a great feature to help with confidentiality in an office environment. There is a re-dial button so you can easily call the last number you rang, again this is a great feature for an office. The phone also has a few other standard features like recall, volume controls and the answer, hang up buttons. The docking station also charges the phone. As the phone is cordless the base has a 'find' button, which is great for is you misplace the phone. I have had to use this feature a few times. The screen on the phone is quite large, you can give the phone a name which appears on the screen. This was handy for me as at the time we had a few of these phones in our office so it stopped us getting them mixed up. Overall I would give this phone 8/10. Read the complete review |

BT Graphite Single 2500
by jemjem02 Our last phone just packed in entirely and we needed a cheap house phone fast. This one seemed like a good choice, and its been working well so far. It was fairly low priced, the main reason for buying. We also needed a phone with an answering machine, and one that was cordless. It looks nice, is small enough to sit ... conspicuously in our living room, and has large easy to see buttons. The 'calls' and 'redial' function are extremely handy, and the answering machine is simple enough for anyone to use. Only a couple of minor gripes with this phone. One is that there is sometimes a little background fuzzy noise when making calls, and the other person can sound slightly quiet or muffled. The other issue is that when on loudspeaker, the call tends to crackle and break up a lot. That could just be our line though, it's hard to tell. Overall very useful product and I would recommended.

BT Studio 4500 Twin
by blissman70 I recently had to buy a new phone due to the fact that my old one had taken on too many tantrums, most of them from my eldest daughter who thinks the quickest way to hang up a phone is to slam it down with as much force as possible onto the nearest hard object. So, I went on the hunt for that new phone which would grace my house for ... the next few years or so, as long as I kept it away from my daughter that is. The type of phone I was looking for had to meet certain criteria's, it had to have a built in answering machine, it had to be a size that would not take up too much space on my desk, it had to have built in caller display, and, most importantly it had to be cordless so no one is wired to one spot. Luckily, these days, most phones are cordless with many of them having a built in answer machine and many other gadgets as well, so finding one that fitted my list of necessities was not too difficult at all. On my hunt I found a nice looking phone with a well known name etched onto it, that name being BT, (British Telecommunications), with the actual phone being called the BT Studio 4500. And as it was at a good price and came as a package I chose to buy it without hesitation. When I got it home and unpacked it inside the box there was... (and should be...) * Base Unit with built in answer machine * Hand set charger * 2 hand sets * Four rechargeable batteries * 2 power adaptors * Telephone line chord * User guide So I went about setting it up, discovering what this BT phone had to offer, which is... * Answer machine * Front display * Built in address book for up to 50 contacts * 40 number call list * 10 number redial list * Caller display, depending on you provider Other features of this sleek looking phone are... * Built in clock. * Alarm clock. * Conference call * On hold music * Secrecy * Keypad lock * Call timer * Low battery alert * Out of range alert ** MY OPINION... As I said, I bought this BT Studio 4500 phone as a package, a twin pack in fact, one part being the main unit which had the built in answer machine, the other being just a phone. You can also expand the number of phones connected to the main unit by up to five separate hand sets, (sold separately). The phones have what is, in the technical world, called DECT technology, (DECT simply stands for Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone), which means that the sound quality is crystal clear no matter where you are standing in the home. And believe me when they say crystal clear they mean crystal clear. It's that clear that it's almost like talking to someone standing right next to you. The entire package looks the part, if you like silver that is, although silver does tend to go with a lot of colours. Both the mains unit and the hand set chargers are neat and sort of curvy looking, making them pretty nice to look at with there black bases and flashing red neon lights. As for the size, well the main answer machine unit is a petite size, being approximately 132mm x 111mm x 53mm. The hand sets are also just the right size and easy to handle, being 154mm x 51mm x 30mm. The charger for the extra handset is 92mm x 112mm x 52mm so they wont look out of place on a small shelf, so long as it's near a mains socket that is. The hand sets have a good range, being approximately 300 metres outdoors, or 50 metres indoors although this range does decrease due to obstructions such walls or buildings. When you have a good strong signal the little signal indicator on the hand set stays solid, but if you step out of range, or are about to do so, then the signal indicator will flash to let you know. Setting up the phone itself is done with ease, especially as the user guide provided is so easy to understand with clear, concise instructions. So I won't go into too much detail about this set up as it could be seen as 'padding', but I will state that if you follow the instructions carefully you should be able to set the time, date and answering machine messages with-in minutes. Just remember that it has to be near a mains plug socket and a telephone point. The mains wire is approximately 2 metres long so any mains socket nearer than 2 metres is good. The connection leads, being the mains and the telephone cord, can only fit into there chosen slots so there's no problem with mixing them up. NOTE: The initial handset charges should be for a minimum of 24 hours to give the batteries that perfect start in life. So do remember this and try not to use the phone before the end of this initial charging time. The controls on the handsets are well laid out, with each button having a clear imprint of what they are for, such as the interior intercom button, the address button, the ending of the call button and so on, with there being a lovely large menu scroll button in the centre. Then the actual display on the handsets is also clear and easy to understand, with such icons spread around to show you what the phone is offering, such as the signal strength, the battery power level, mute on/off, alarm setting and more. Then there's the answering machine base station for the main phone itself. This again is simple to understand and so easy to use, with a clear simple number display to show you if you have any messages, flashing for any new messages, and all the buttons around the display to play or go through your messages. The screen shows you the exact length of each call made/received, allowing you to easily keep track of you calls. The answering machine itself can hold up to 12 minutes in total of recording time, with each message being 3 minutes in length, which should be enough for most caller to leave a message, and the clarity of the sound coming from the single speaker makes listening to those messages a blessing, so I don't have to strain to hear what people are saying. The built in address book can hold up to 50 separate contacts and, depending on your line package, it can offer caller display, showing either the number or the callers name if the caller is in your address book, so you can ignore the calls if you want to. And as it has the capabilities of remote access you can listen to your messages from anywhere in the world, as long as you can remember your four digit code. As for the price of this lovely little wonder phone, well this two phone package sells for around the £40.00 region, with the triple version selling for around £60.00, although if you just want the single unit, with the built in answer machine, this alone sells for a mere £25.00. Which for what you get is remarkably cracking value for money in any ones books. In all, if you need a DECT quality phone which not only looks the part but does what it is supposed to do with some style then this is certainly worth looking into. I have absolutely no regrets with buying this one at all and would quite happily buy another one if and when my daughter decides to throw another of her 'teenage' tantrums. Read the complete review |
