Editorial note

The Philips DCTG2801B stands out for its exceptional sound quality, thanks to a powerful speaker that offers an immersive listening experience. Its microphone mute feature allows for optimal control during conversations, while compatibility with multiple handsets and bases ensures flexibility of use in various environments. Additionally, the white backlit screen and FSTN technology guarantee clear visibility even in low light, and the integrated ECO mode helps reduce energy consumption while maintaining satisfactory performance. However, the phone has some notable drawbacks. The lack of a built-in answering machine may be a drawback for users looking to manage their calls effectively in their absence. Furthermore, the 1.8-inch screen size may seem limited for those who prefer a larger interface. Although it is compatible with several bases, only one handset is included, which may not be sufficient for households needing multiple devices. Finally, the 8-hour charging time for the battery may be considered long, especially compared to other more efficient models. In terms of user experience, the well-thought-out features of the Philips DCTG2801B give it a score of 78, while its performance is rated at 80, particularly due to its sound quality. The battery life is deemed acceptable with a score of 70, although its charging time is an area for improvement. The design, rated at 65, could be more appealing with a larger screen, and the features, although varied, receive a score of 75 due to the absence of certain advanced options. Finally, the value for money is rated at 72, making it acceptable, but it could pose a problem for users requiring multiple handsets.
