Editorial note

The Gigaset C300 stands out for its extended range, offering flexible use with 50 meters indoors and 300 meters outdoors. This makes it an ideal choice for various environments, whether at home or in the garden. Additionally, the 37 polyphonic ringtones allow for appreciated sound customization, giving each user the option to choose a melody that suits them. However, some drawbacks must be taken into account. The lack of a built-in answering machine may disappoint users who want to easily manage missed calls. Furthermore, the limited number of SMS boxes (1) and the absence of downloadable ringtones restrict sound customization options, which could disappoint some users. Finally, compatibility with Mac systems is not available, limiting accessibility for some users. In terms of performance, the Gigaset C300 scores well, particularly due to an impressive battery life of 20 hours of talk time and 300 hours on standby. The modern and aesthetic design is also a plus, although the product is not specifically tailored for elderly people, which may limit its accessibility. Finally, handling is facilitated by features such as Plug and Play and backlit buttons. While the value for money is acceptable, some limitations may affect user satisfaction. Overall, the Gigaset C300 is a functional and practical phone, but it could benefit from some improvements to better meet the expectations of all users.
