Promotion Belkin F1PP010EN-SK Desktop Internet Phone for Skype (Black)

Over All Rating Reviews :

As Skype has become more widely use by many people, much more than one or two friends, I've moved from using it on my laptop and then on my iphone, into using on my desk. The feeling of having a desk phone is very pleasant and having calls ring without having to have your computer on is ideal. In addition the sound quality of the speaker phone and the feel and quality of the phone itself is fantastic. I was hesitant at first and I had seen it for almost two years and I was not convinced on the beginning, but I order two phones and hand them to relatives of mine, among them my parents and they really love it.

I bought this phone to use skype without computer. Easy to get started. Since I had SKYPE ID, in less than 2 minutes I was able to get started and make phone calls.

Speaker phone is clear and LCD display is great.

Only drawback, I saw changing the time zone. Even after time zone was set and when you restart, it goes to default.

In short, a good equipment for decent price.

I'm almost satisfied.
But not satisfied with no speed dial and no variable "status" automatically.
It's good idea Skype Phone without PC, so Belkin should think speed dial is equipped.
Some of senior citizens is a presbyope person, so it's not comfortable to watch "Contact".

I bought this product with caution, aware that not all of the reviews for it were positive.

To me, the major complaints seemed exaggerated.

Some reviews complained of cheap plastic, but it seems sturdy to me, even if it's not solid polycarbonate.

Other reviews complained of problems with the handset being hard to place on the unit. This also seems unsubstantiated to me; I have had no such difficulties.

I called my mom on speaker phone, and I had a 15 minute conversations at varying distances from the phone (up to 10 feet away) without any loss of clarity for her. So, I'm not sure why some complained about the speaker phone experience.

You do have to press 00 before every call, unless you're dialing a contact, but this wasn't a major drawback in my opinion.

In summary, this phone does exactly what I wanted it to do: it acts as a simple, cheap land-line replacement that doesn't need to be connected to my computer.

I have used a Netgear SPH200D for a couple of years. This Belkin Skype phone uses an slightly updated version of the firmware of the Netgear phone. I have had the Belkin for 1/2 a day and feel I must address some of the concerns I saw in some of the previous reviews I read here.

1) The phone is light in weight BUT NOT so much that it gets drag around the table. It is fine.
2) The speaker phone works so well that many times I expect I may not even pick up the handset.
3) The handset DOES seat itself very well in the cradle. I don't know if this is a design change since the early versions reviewed by others but mine clicks solidly in place with a hook/catch arrangement very securely. In fact it does this so well, you have to be careful to slide it up before moving away from the phone body.
4) The display is brighter than my SPH200D and has additional menus including a selection for logging into more than one account quickly.
5) Finding a contact in a long list is the same and as painless as my SPH200D (less painful as there is clearly a faster CPU in this phone), you enter a couple of letters from the numeric keypad and with each key press the phone filters your contacts to only those containing those letters. Works great.
6) Quality of the plastic: It's no high end top-of-the-line cell phone type build quality but it is pretty good and definitely good enough to have sitting on your desk.
7) The unit is fairly petite. I view this is positive as it does not take up too much desk space.
8) Pretty much ALL Skype phones I am aware of (Netgear SPH200D and Belkin WiFi phone that I own as well as this phone) all put calls through to voicemail after 3 rings (if you enable the voicemail forwarding that can be disabled at anytime even if you have a voicemail active).
9) Voice quality is excellent. This was my biggest concern and after reading reviews of this phone and the IPEVO desk phone, I went with the Belkin and don't regret it at all! I saw some concerns on the IPEVO and while I never tried one, that was one criticism I saw. The Belkin sound quality is great EITHER through the handset or through the Speaker phone.

The bad? Not much...
(1) It did reboot once when I was switching between 2 Skype accounts I have but it rebooted and came straight back on line and lost no data or account info.
(2) You do have to enter +1 and 3 digit area code. Some Skype phones force you to do this and some don't. This is NOT much of an issue as most of the time you'll dial from the contacts list and don't have to worry about the country/area code.

4/5 stars in my view and if you are concerned about this solution I would suggest "don't be". I have SkypeIn/SkypeOut, Voicemail all operating fine with great audio quality and the ergonomics aren't bad either.

UPDATE:
Minor "Cons":
a) The main display tells you how many missed calls or voicemails you have but there is no separate notification light to notify that you have a voicemail and the main display turns off after 1-5 minutes depending on your settings (you can't have it left on). The SPH200D has this. This makes it tough to tell if you have a voicemail with a quick glance at the phone after being away for a while... you have to reach over & touch any button to turn the display on to see.

b) The "mood message" seems to get deleted when I log into the same account from a PC. The SPH200D does not do this (unless the Vista version of Skype handles this better than the XP version).

Audio quality was pretty poor with a constant hissing in the background.

The phone feels very cheap and flimsy.

Menu navigation is slow and unintuitive.

Awful phone especially for the price.
