Editorial note
The Alcatel F380-S Duo phone stands out for its practicality and features suited for daily use. With two cordless handsets, it offers great freedom of movement and an impressive maximum range of 300 meters outdoors and 50 meters indoors. Its blue backlit screen ensures optimal visibility, even in low-light conditions, thus facilitating use. Additionally, the ability to add contacts directly from the handset simplifies the management of your phone book. However, some drawbacks should be noted. The lack of a built-in answering machine may be a drawback for those who wish to manage their missed calls effectively. Although the outdoor range is satisfactory, the indoor range of 50 meters may be limited in larger homes. Furthermore, the product does not offer certain advanced features, such as intercom or Bluetooth connectivity, which may restrict its use compared to other more modern models. The user interface, deemed basic, may also disappoint users accustomed to more sophisticated devices. In terms of scores, the user experience is overall positive with a score of 85, while performance is rated satisfactory with a score of 80. Battery life is a strong point, reaching a score of 90, which is a major asset. The design, while functional, may not suit all styles, with a score of 70, and the features, although practical, lack some advanced characteristics, receiving a score of 75. Finally, the ergonomics of the interface is rated at 65, indicating room for improvement in intuitiveness. In summary, the Alcatel F380-S Duo is an efficient phone for users looking for a reliable device, but it could benefit from improvements in certain aspects to fully meet the expectations of modern users.Score details
