Customer Reviews

Simple
If you want to hold a phone to your ear then this is the product for you!
I have used a headset with skype in the past but never really got on with it.
Now i use the in built microphone and speakers which work wonderfully.
However, if you want a bit of privacy, and the familiar feel to a telephone conversation get this. Plug and play, it just works.
Skype configures it automatically as well!

Cheap and cheerful; no complaints
This is not a glamorous product but it certainly does the trick. Aesthetically it's a little grey and clunky, like a mobile phone circa 1999. Technically, though, it works very well - plug it in and off you go. I'd recommend it to someone who wants to enter into the internet phone revolution but really doesn't like the whole microphone/headset malarky that often goes with it. This is as close to a proper phone as you can get. All phonecalls I've had using this gadget so far have been clear and comfortable with no technical problems. It's also got a good long cable so you can actually move away from your computer to make a call if you want to - makes a nice change. All that said, it might be worth saving your cash and waiting for the wave of well-designed stylish internet phones that is surely about to crash in on us once the phone companies realise what's going on!

basic skype phone with no fancy bits
I ordered this phone as I live abroad and was at the end of my tether with a microphone. It was quite distressing to ring home and find that the microphone wouldn't work. I was a bit apprehensive as I didn't think it would be up to much for £12.95. However, I was pleasantly surprised and I am more than happy with the phone. It connects to your computer via a usb and the cable is about 1.2metres long. It reminds me of a mobile phone from about 5 years ago as its slightly bulky but small enough to fit inside a laptop bag with your computer. The sound is clear and works well with vista. Would I recommend? well I am a very fussy consumer and yes I most certainly would if you want a functional phone for using with skype thats very good value for money.
