The built-in digital answering machine provides 33 minutes of recording time (and memo operation), with the support of four mailboxes to designate messages and full remote operation to collect messages while you're away. The date and time stamp records when the call came in. A 30-number caller ID memory and 200 speed-dial presets are both displayed on the large five-line backlit LED screen. The slim handset, weighing just 5.6 ounces and measuring 2-by-6.5-by-1.5-inches, has volume control, call waiting, flash, hold, and last number redial.
Expand your 4215 to four users with optional handsets (Siemens model 4200 or 4000). A long battery life provides 10 hours of talk and 6.25 days of standby with a low-battery indicator.

Since there are too many functions to list. I will mention a few of my favorites. 1. Voice dialing (Works very well!) The few negative aspects of the siemens 4215 are: 1. Buttons could be a little more responsive. (Just press a little harder) Keep in mind, the positives definitely surpass the negatives...Read more 31 of 31 people found the following review helpful: By A Customer This review is from: Siemens 4215 Gigaset 2.4 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone (Silver and Black) (Office Product) ...as in Dustin Hoffman's famous portrayal of an idiot savant. As others have pointed out, this phone is a puzzling mixture of the stupid and the brilliant. The reviews here are very helpful and largely accurate, but I was almost put off sufficiently by some to stop me from buying the phone. I would encourage you to at least give it a try and then return it if the negatives outweigh the positives. My family is extremely happy overall. The major +'s & -'s have been well covered in other reviews, so let me just a list few things that do not appear to have been stressed: NEGATIVES: 48 of 52 people found the following review helpful: By JurgenKjurgen (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Siemens 4215 Gigaset 2.4 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone (White and Silver) (Office Product) Don't buy this phone until you understand the following.I must second a number of the negative statements made by the other reviewers- There are some serious flaws here. If you're even considering this phone then you probably care about aesthetics and ergonomics (e.g., wanting to have multiple extensions that work together), a rich feature set, as well as sound quality, which this phone DOES have in varying degrees. The major difficulty is that the positives with respect to these qualities are really great, and the negatives are shockingly bad. The feature set is so good, for a technophile like me it's hard to diss this phone too much because you just can't get voice announce and voice dialing at this price level (Closest would be the Panasonic Gigarange Elite phone that sells for 225 to 250 internet). Some of the ideas are innovative and thoughtful, like the ability to have lower volume ringing at night according to your preset times. But there is a stunning lack of field...Read more |
