Devices based on DECT technology have come to replace home and office landline telephones. Their distinctive feature is the use of a wireless radio signal received by the handset in a limited area. This signal is usually enough for conversations throughout the apartment or office.
Instructions
Step 1
The choice of a device should be based on the budget, expected functionality, goals and conditions of use. Any model is well suited for the home, starting with the lowest price category (up to 2000 rubles) and above. If you often talk on the phone or want to install the device in your office, it is better to pay attention to models with an average (up to 3000 rubles) and high (from 3000 rubles and more) cost.
Step 2
Communication quality can be at a high level not only on expensive handsets, but also on budget devices. During the purchase, ask the seller to connect the phone to the network, and then try to make a test call to determine the quality of the reception. During the conversation, no echo or extraneous noise should be heard.
Step 3
Find out the capacity of the machine's address book if you are going to store a large number of numbers in its memory. An important parameter is the battery life and talk time without recharging. A phone with a weak battery will often have to be left on the base.
Step 4
Most of the devices are additionally equipped with an answering machine, but this increases the size of the base itself. All records from subscribers who have not called are recorded directly into the phone's memory, and therefore you should pay attention to the number of saved messages.
Step 5
The number identification function is also present in most devices. There are two ways it works: Caller ID and Caller ID. The difference lies in how this feature is implemented - the standard caller ID determines the number directly during the call, while the Caller ID allows you to find out the number even before the connection.
Step 6
Pay attention to the availability of additional functions. For example, more expensive models are equipped with a color display. However, if you are purchasing a device for the office, you will hardly need the ability to change the desktop theme or color scheme. The presence of a digital camera, the ability to connect to a computer for downloading ringtones or synchronizing contacts, MMS support, copying numbers from a mobile phone's SIM card - all these are nice bonuses, but a device with such functionality will be quite expensive.
