It depends upon which features you're looking for, but this one has exactly what I wanted. . .

#1 - Headset - This phone has a headset button, with the jack on the right side. When you want to make a call, you simply press the headset button. With my old phone, I would have to pick-up the receiver. This phone also has a "release" button. This can work in two ways. Either it will hang-up the phone when you're using your headset. . . or. . . it will hang-up and give you a dial-tone to make a new call. Please Note: It's automatically set-up to hang-up and give you a dial-tone. I changed that in the menu options, because I simply want it to hang-up.

#2 - Message Waiting light. I have voicemail though my phone service (AT&T) and I like the fact that a light will flash to let me know that I have a message waiting.

#3 - Speed-dial.

#4 - Though I actually liked the way my "old" phone did this a little better, but this is still not bad. When someone calls, and it shows-up on your caller ID, it will usually come through as a 10-digit number. There is a "7-10-11" button. Depending upon where you live, and what number you're calling, you may call the person back using 7-digits. . 10-digits or 1 plus 10-digits. You press the "7-10-11" button and it will change the number. You can either call the number, or store it in your directory.

#5 - Screen tilts

#6 - Helpful tech support

I also like the other "regular" things like speaker phone, redial, large directory, etc.

Here is the reason I am giving this phone 4-stars. With all the things that I like about it. . . there are a couple that I don't. . .

#1 - Backlit Display - It is backlit. . . but. . . only for a few seconds. You have to press something for it to light-up. I wish there were a way to keep it lit all the time, but there's not. This is something that I really don't like, because though you can see the screen when it's not lit, it's not very easy. Tech support says that it's to save energy. . . but.. . how much energy does it take?

#2 - The instruction manual is very "basic". This phone is more-or-less intuitive, but for example, I had to call tech supposed to ask about the headset part. I didn't see that there is a headset jack on the right side.

Overall I'm still quite happy with the phone. My #1 is the headset button. When you've spent years and years lifting the handset each time you want to answer or place a call. . .it's great not to have to do that any longer.

This phone offers many features, including a backlit display which is easy to read. The sound quality is great and a volume control for the handset works well. The phone has a headset jack which is a neat feature, as is the speakerphone. Another convenience the phone offers is a flashing light indicating that voicemail has been received.

I work in a large office but they give us cheap phones. I had a speaker phone that indicated when a voicemail was received but that finally bit the dust. No office supply stores had what I was looking for which was a single line, speaker phone with a Voicemail indicator. I ran across this phone and never heard about this company but I took a chance. I am very pleased. The lighted display is great and you can angle it to your desired viewing area. There is a small blinking LED indicator light for waiting voicemails. Speaker phone. Caller ID. Several memory position and some other features that I really like. If you are looking for a one line phone that can accept an internal voicemail system this is not a bad phone.
