Doro 5055

I love the phone number storage system, so if for example you need to call someone, you can go into the recent calls bit, access their number, then call them. Very attractive.

The grey covering of the phone started to come off a while after I bought it, but that didn't pose a major problem to me.

Silver Colour - different ring tones for different phone book memories

Buttons don't seem to work after a while.

Great looking, feature packed, modern phone. Its multi-handset capable.

Great long lasting phone that has not had a fault for me in the years I have had one, uses 2 standard rechargable AAA batteries, looks futuristic and very modern, great color

Originally not a very well known brand, but other than that none found after 4 years of trouble free use.

It was cheap!!!

The buttons gave up the ghost VERY quickly.

The loud speaker .Missed calls

The ring is slow to ativate .

Its light, looks good, reasonably easy to use, can be bought cheaply often with one or more extra handsets thrown in, extra handsets can be added to the system, can be wall or desk mounted, good range, microwave doesn't interfere with it as much as...

slim line and mine came with a free second handset

battery doesn't warn you that it is going flat, it will just cut you off. after a while it doesn't hold much charge and you must keep it on the charger when not in use. doesn't have much range

It looks great ie futuristic space age image Comes in great colours Is compact, can fit just about anywhere

The buttons are small and difficult to press The phone won't work properly after about 1 month! ie you can't hear the person you're calling very well and they can't hear you very well. If you ring Telstra or Optus, for a fee they will come out and...

Light and easy to use. 20 memory locations but still not enough (my mobile has 500). 5 number redial is fairly handy. Hands-free feature is handy for conferencing. Completely secure phone conversations. Gives a different ring when a number stored in...

Can be mislaid easily. Thank goodness for the paging function. Seems to fill up with body fluid from the face and hands, making the buttons hard to operate after several weeks. Keeps ringing after the second phone is picked up.
