Alcatel T-16 Black

Excellent landline phone. It is great value for money, very compact, can be wall mounted nicely, and has decent audio qualitySome minor drawbacks:The ring volume is a bit on the lower side ( but adequate)There is no speakerphone mode.The phone jack going into the receiver is a non standard (narrow) plug, so you can't use an ordinary plug directly.The receiver wire goes straight into your wall socket, so you should be a bit careful when pulling the receiver. It also means you must have a female rj11 socket to use the phone. In my case we had a direct rj11 male plug coming into the house so we had to add an adapter.

It is good product. Worth for money. If you need simple landline phone. You can go for this. Because of brand cost is high. May be 200 less will give more sales. Replacement was immediately done. Now the product works as expected. Sound is very less not good for old people

Ringer at full volume is barely audibleProduct is replacement only. So you can't return if disappointed. Using it as a wall hanging now.Very poorly written manual, does not explain process of saving / retrieving numbers.LED screen does not have any light, so poor readability and as the screen is on the other side of the buttons, it is impractical to use as you have to keep turning the unit around to see what you have typed.Overall - exceptionally poor product design.Only redeeming quality is the decent length of the wire supplied.

Good device but volume is too low if you want to keep it in the living area.

Phone is good, all functions works well. I have seen few reviews where they say it falls off from the cradle. Actually there is a small hook near to the ear piece which needs to be reversed. That acts as a hook to the phone and it stays there.....I would suggest everyone to read the manual first then use the phone, rather than commenting.I would recommend it to everyone who needs a landline phone and can use it with broadband connection. Cheap and best. Only downside I can see is the ringtone, that is bit on the lower side, rest everything is good.

It's good ,using it as an intercom, but ringing volume is not good, wanted it to be little more loud , not sure if it has any setting to change the ringing tone

Light is not working on receiver's screen from the very 1st day and voice clarity is not good. Setup got late so return window closed. Not recommended.Its my review after getting it replaced by service centre, in replaced unit also LED light is not working. Don't know its a defect or there is no any backlight in display by default.

The Alcatel T-16 wall mountable telephone instrument is sleek and compact but the connecting wire between the handset and the instrument is of poor quality which remains twisted for a long time. The RJ-11 telephone jacks fitted on the handset and the base are of different sizes.
