Manual of product AS285
Editorial note
The Gigaset AS285 stands out for its numerous features that enhance the user experience. With a built-in answering machine, it allows for efficient management of incoming calls, ensuring that you never miss an important message. Additionally, its polyphonic ringtones and the ability to customize ringtones for specific contacts enrich call management, making the experience more enjoyable. The impressive range of 300 meters outdoors and a communication autonomy of 25 hours offer great flexibility of use. However, some drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. The 1.42-inch monochrome screen may hinder the readability of information, especially compared to models with larger color screens. The lack of wireless connectivity also limits installation flexibility, which can be problematic in certain environments. Furthermore, the limited compatibility with Mac systems and the call management capacity restricted to 10 contacts may not suit all users. In terms of design, the Gigaset AS285 features a modern look with backlit buttons, but its aesthetic appeal will depend on personal preferences. The ease of installation thanks to the Plug and Play feature is a plus, making the device user-friendly. Overall, the Gigaset AS285 offers good value for money with its many features, although it may not be suitable for all users due to certain limitations.Score details
