Bought to replace cordless phones from a long time ago, or even a very long time ago, they do the job...
- Large screen: very practical when you're presbyopic and your glasses are a long way off.
- Good audio quality whether you're using the handset or the speakerphone.
The screen does not switch off automatically in normal mode. This is very annoying at night. It's a shame.
I've always had gigasets, the good thing about them is that you can add other gigaset solo phones internally, which is useful when you have a large house.
So far, the phones are working properly.
The only problem, which is a bit annoying for me, is that the screen lighting on each handset is constantly on and despite digging around in the settings I haven't found a way to deactivate it so that the screen isn't permanently over-lit. I don't think this will be good for battery life.
I bought this model because I already had almost the same one, but the handsets gradually broke down after several years of use. On these old handsets I could set the backlight so that when they were not in use, the screen went into standby mode.
It's a shame because otherwise everything's OK.
Purchased to replace a Gigaset C620 whose screen was no longer working.
Easy to install, simple to copy contacts after pairing with the C620.
Poor display compared with its predecessor, even though the technology is 10 years old.
Large characters, Super Mario Year 1-style pixelation, in black and white. So to be reduced, choice: low or high ... binary.
Problem: the 52 C620 contact records are transformed into 79 AS690 records. Each number found creates its own record.
100 possible contacts, I'm getting close to the end. Actually supports 50 names with two numbers.
Displays 15 letters per line. Very accurate with long names
Display of names in alphabetical order (surname) only. Every family is in a queue, with first names planed to Marie A, Marie L, Jean? or less etc. The work-office-mobile distinction is made by adding a 1 or a 2, making it impossible to distinguish between private and work unless you create another file and give a nickname... risky.
No automatic screen saver. Installed in a corridor, it's like a small torch, even with the contrast reduced.
This morning, I reinstalled the two working C620s, and added the AS690 in the least busy place.
Disappointed to find them retrograde.
The lugs on one power base were cast at an angle, impossible to insert a handset. Send it back? the transport costs are half its value. Fortunately, the bases have been standard for 10 years. The old one is being reused.
Gigaset-Siemens is now focusing on the mid-low end of the market. Chinese toy plastic.
Made in Deutschland...über alles...
To be avoided for your parents and maybe for you?
