Now mobile communication has great advantages. Today, almost everyone has a cell phone, and hardly anyone would want to give it up. But, nevertheless, home wired telephones still exist and are even in demand.
Instructions
Step 1
When choosing a landline phone, decide for yourself what functions it should have. If you are buying a device for your home and will only use it for conversations, a simple and inexpensive model will suit you. For the office, you will need a more complex multifunctional apparatus.
Step 2
The design of the device and its size are also important. The phone should harmoniously fit into the interior of your apartment or office. Think in advance where the device will be located, what color, size and shape it should be.
Step 3
When buying, check the speaker and microphone of the device, the quality of the conversation depends on them. Make a test call. There should be no extraneous sounds or interference in the tube.
Step 4
Choose a model with a phone book. The memory of the device is designed for a certain number of numbers. Each stored subscriber number can be assigned a single or two-digit number, which greatly facilitates dialing. Some models are designed to store in the memory not only numbers, but also names of subscribers.
Step 5
Buy a device with a display, where you will see the incoming and outgoing number, missed calls, call duration, as well as the current time and date. It's good if the display is large and backlit. There are devices with liquid crystal displays, they are brighter and clearer.
Step 6
Be sure to check the machine for the presence of an answering machine. In modern models, they are digital, with high recording quality. You will always know who called you and when about what.
Step 7
Choose a phone model with a hands-free function. A microphone is arranged in the body of the phone, so that the person at the other end of the line will hear everyone in the room, and his speech will be available to all of them. The speakerphone is very convenient for office workers: it gives freedom of movement and the ability to do work while talking.
Step 8
If you are purchasing a phone for the office, it is desirable that it has a call hold function. Even when talking to someone, you can use it, answer an important call and continue the conversation.
