Handset speakerphone
Hands-free mode uses a built-in loudspeaker
to amplify the voice of the caller, allowing you
to speak and listen during a call without holding
the phone to your ear. This is especially useful
if you want to share the call with others or
simply multitask.
HQ-Sound
MySound profiles
Sound perception is subjective, and everyone
has their own listening preference. MySound
brings personality back to every conversation
by allowing you to choose the audio profile
that best matches your sound preferences:
Clear—to make voices sound crisper and
clearer; Soft—for friendly, softer tones;
Warm—to make voices sound welcoming and
warm.
Optimised antenna layout
Acoustic echo cancellation
No more of those annoying echoes when you
are talking on the phone. With our acoustic
echo cancellation, you always get a clear,
undisturbed connection.
ECO mode
60% reduction of radiation when ECO mode is

HQ-Sound: high quality acoustic engineering
for superb sound reproduction. We build upon
decades of experience and breakthrough
innovations in developing Hi-Fi audio products
and high-end headphones to deliver excellent
voice clarity on our DECT phones. When it

acoustics engineers and architects have
thought of everything — high quality
components, digital signal processing, precise
acoustic design, advanced testing and finetuning. The result is sound that is crisp, clear
and authentic. Sound so good and natural, it is
almost like being there in person.
