Telstra F2150

Cheap, easy to use

Poor sound quality in recorded messages and only a very low volume (at its highest volume) when using as a phone.

Easy to use

screen a bit hard to read without glasses

The answering machine is simple, but reliable. No problems with sound quality.

The handset itself is a tad small.

Seems like the phone is not as good as I hoped. But it looks good.

Without the manual you are up the creek.

The answering machine was a good feature and was clear.

Sometimes the receiver can hear the caller but the caller cannot hear the receiver. Sometimes when you pick up a call, the call is not there. The handset are too small and the redial button does not work too well.

It works

It doesn't like to work when there is an ADSL service on the same line. Noise can be heard in the form of a 'buzzing sound' when sharing an ADSL modem and this phone on the same line: even if a filter is properly located. Uniden and Panasonic phones...

It looks good.

I have the package with a remote phone as well as the base phone. The base phone is great but the remote phone (which is only in the bedroom (10m away) often drops out when trying to dial a number, though it receives well.

Very Sleek And Compact Design. It looks great and there are heaps of useful buttons on the phone thats not confusing.

no the best range, and if you place it next to something electronic, the reception is really really bad, and you cannot speak into it.
