Advantages: Very versatile and intuitive to use. SMS-enabled Disadvantages: I still get phone calls
...Red Dwarf fans.
The BT Verve 450 Twin was what we bought, although I see from subsequent price searches, we 'were done' by Currys having been charged the full BT RRP of nigh-on 80 quid and during a January sale to boot. That'll teach me to make impulse buys!
PHYSICAL SET-UP
Leaping straight to the 'leave this to me, who needs instructions?' approach we did indeed get us most of the way to a working duet of cordless phones, but that's about as ... ...the Caller ID function from BT or whoever you pay your line rental to helps as this supposedly absolves you of the need to set the date and time - this is done apparently when the first call comes in. This is fine if you don't buy old stock or buy 'on the cusp' of a new year. This can lead to your answering machine reporting the correct time that calls were received but getting the day wrong. Don't rush to take it back as faulty - it's only the manual ...
Advantages: great audio quality Disadvantages: none
Sound quality is good on normal calls and on speaker phone and the ringer could be heard from the moon so no qualms there. If you have your broadband and phone on the same line make sure you have a good filter or the audio will drop off on calls to a whisper. The answer phone is also great and can be turned on or off at the touch of a button, there is also a button for locating the phone when you leave it in the kitchen cupboard etc. Build quality ... ...lump of plastic held together with sticky tape and when dropped spreads its insides across the room like a fragmentation grenade.

Phonebook is good and if you have caller recognition on this works really well too. All in all a great phone when it comes to calls but leave the txt message option ...

Review of BT Decor 1200
Advantages: Can't think of any Disadvantages: See review poor volume and lack of clarity
...they were poor quality, but BT still sell them at full list and Tesco prices are also now back up to £50+.
Also you need internet access to view the full instruction leaflet as BT pack only a single-sheet potted version with the phones in order to "save the planet".
We are now shopping for a Panasonic or similar. ...
Advantages: Easy to use,clear layout Disadvantages: corded phone
The Big Button 100 phone is a very simple and basic corded phone.The main feature is that it has big buttons so that it is easier for those with poor eye sight people to see the numbers and dial correctly. The design is simple but effective with a white finish and a flat square shaped design. Other features

There is also a call indicator light which flashes when the phone rings or when there are messages waiting for ... ...user to stores up to 13 numbers and to speed dial them without having to remember them.
