Features
Intelligent Eco Mode
This clever new feature automatically lowers the power consumption when youre using the handset close to the base unit. Not only does it extend the available talk time, its good for the environment. When less power is used by the handset to communicate with the base unit, battery life is prolonged which results in less frequent charging and can result in fewer batteries in landfills.
Call Block
Store the Caller ID info of any and all unwanted callers into your homes Call Block list so that you can eliminate future pesky calls from them. After their information is stored, theyll get a busy signal if they call you again.
Silent Mode
Now you can program each handset to ring or not at your discretion. For example, before you go to sleep, set the bedside handset to Silent Mode so that it wont ring for the duration of your slumber. In the meantime, the handset in another room is unaffected, and rings as usual.
Talking Caller ID
Now you don't have to be holding the phone to see who's calling; using text-to-speech technology, the Caller ID information is announced in between rings! The phone also boasts an alarm clock that speaks to you, as in "It's time for lunch," and the phone politely tells you when your battery is low with a "Please charge phone" reminder!
Non-Slip Handset
Multi-tasking while you are talking on a cordless handset - whether it's jotting down a quick note, pouring a glass of juice or folding a few pieces of laundry - is often difficult due to the tendency of the handset to slip as you cradle it on your shoulder. The rubberized grip helps prevent slipping, making it easier and more comfortable to cradle the phone when you want to work with your hands.
Range Extender (Standard on the 405X Models)
When it comes to a cordless phone's range, longer is definitely better. The new Range Extender feature included in this model, addresses this need by doubling the effective transmission distance between the base unit and the cordless handset when compared with previous models. Now you can take your conversations further.
