Editorial note

The Gigaset S850 is a cordless phone that stands out for its maximum outdoor range of 300 meters, providing great freedom of movement during outdoor calls. Its 1.8-inch TFT screen with backlighting ensures clear visibility even in low-light conditions, while its directory capacity of 500 entries allows for storing a large number of contacts for easy access. Additionally, the conference call feature facilitates communication with multiple participants simultaneously. GAP compatibility also ensures smooth integration with other cordless devices. However, the Gigaset S850 has some drawbacks. The lack of a built-in answering machine may pose a problem for those who want to easily manage their missed calls. Similarly, the absence of an intercom function limits communication between different handsets in the same space. For parents, the lack of a baby monitor function can be problematic for monitoring a child from a distance. Furthermore, the 1.8-inch screen size may seem too small for comfortable viewing of messages or contacts. Finally, the 5-hour charging time may seem long, especially for intensive daily use. In terms of scores, the user experience is satisfactory with a score of 80, although the absence of a built-in answering machine may be an issue. Performance is rated good with a score of 75, but some limitations may restrict usage. Battery life receives a score of 70, while the design, although modern, is rated at 65 due to the screen size. Finally, the value for money is good with a score of 78, but the limitations of certain features may affect the overall perception of the product.
