BT Esprit 1200 Dect Telephone

Well i totally disagree with the previous reveiw....I bought this item, and its great!!Its a home phone, but with all the benefits of a mobile.I have added lots of my own ringtones, and within no time at all, set it all up and running!Regarding INCOMING CALLS/REIEVED CALLS...It has a delete function for all the calls you have made, or recieved...JUST DELETE THEM, as the instructions clearly state...And it is not slow, by any means!!!It looks very stylish and elegant on the sideboard.I am 100% thrilled with it..I have a 12month gaurentee with it, and hope it carries on working as good as it is now!! then, mission accomplished......

The phone is good for features like reading SIM cards to populate the directory and back up your mobile. But it is SO SLOW when you are actually trying to make a call. Navigating through the screens takes forever, and the phone insists one telling you the call duration for about 5 hours before you can make another call. The good news is it's not all that robust so, after administering some discipline yesterday, I am now on the look out for another. It won't be a BT one, for the sake of my sanity.

This a brilliant phone and we reccomend it most highly. Firstly one can insert a SIM from a mobile and upload Names and Numbers. It will send and receive SMSs. It has Caller Identity and lists the previous 20 or so callers and also lists calls made.Unfortunately we dropped and damaged our first Esprit but we were still able to copy the long list of contacts on to the replacement phone in a couple of minutes by means of the Infrared facility. go to the link below:- BT Esprit 1200 Dect Telephone

I have owned this phone (two in fact - an extension upstairs) for over 2 years and would not be without it. Functions very similar to a mobile -even can transfer to and from mobile SIM card. I cannot fault it. It is robust (it has been thrown and survived). Every home should have one (or two).
