SIEMENS GIGASET E455 SIM DECT PHONE REVIEW
Brilliant phone,
4th May 2007
Brilliant phone, till now I went through x amount of BT phones which I was not happy with and which gave up there batteries life after 6 month giving shorter and shorter talk time. The Siemens has in comparison a brilliant sound quality and lasts for ever, in fact it took 3 days before the batteries had to go on to the station again. It is very easy to use and to understand the only downfall is that the ring tones could be a bit louder. I love my new phone and would say it is for any one who is looking for a phone that still functions as mainly that as one has a mobile phone and a computer for any thing else.

a phone for growing families,
25th Apr 2007
This is a great package with big savings and not to mention free delivery from ligo. It has all the essential features that my wife and I need, particularly the SIM reader function, SMS, and answerphone. The extras are good as well, we make use of the baby monitor frequently to good results. It’s easy to set up the base station (it just needs to be connected to the mains and to the telephone line) and registering the handsets to the base was easier than expected (few steps and clear instructions in the manual). The dust- and splash-proof finish is the best extra on this phone, perfect for families with young children like mine.

range,
2nd May 2008
I have needed a telephone which would work in an outhouse, given both the house and the outhouse have walls over a foot thick. This works exceptionally well. I was prompted to buy by a person who had an old house with thick walls. It was not with confidence that I bought it but it has proved a brilliant solution.

Gigaset E455 SIM,
31st Oct 2007
The Gigaset E455 SIM seems to have all the functions you could want. We bought it to use as a business phone because we wanted cordless handsets but still wanted to be able to copy in contacts, etc., which the BT-supplied phones did not offer. It's not really compatible to use with a multi-line system because you can only transfer between handsets if they are programmed to the same base which puts them on the same line, defeating the purpose of multi lines. However, that is not the phone's fault and I'm sure they're fine for the home. Siemens customer service was also very helpful. The only thing I really don't like is that the ringtones are quite horrible and it is not possible to download any others to it.

robust, intelligent design, nice features,
3rd Dec 2007
Pleased with this product so far. Particularly
Nice, robust feel to the handsets SIM card reader a good function Good clear sound Nice choice of rings and ring volumes I like the fact that the base station is separate from docked handsets, esp as my line comes into a room where I just don't need a separate handset. Why don't more cordless phones do this? Really nice big clock on face of handset when docked - can read it across a room Otherwise just nice, logical functions. Does what it says on the tin. Regards M Clarke
Excellent system,
25th Jan 2008
The handsets have to partly assembled when they first arrive which took me by surpise but was very simple. They operate quite like a mobile phone i.e.hold down 1 to hear your voicemail, press the speaker icon to go hands free, etc. Best thing about the system is the range, we live in a 17th cetury farmhouse where the previous Philips system could not cope with 1.2m thick walls but the Gigaset E455 has no problem and clearly shows the signal strength obtained, we are not getting less than 3 out of 5 pips even when 50 metres from the base unit through thick walls. The software is a little slower than I have heard from other systems in putting your call through, that's to say the beeps are slightly leisurely, but you get used to that and its no biggy. The sim reader function I did use for my handset so I have all my frequently used numbers on both my mobile and the E455, no one else in the family has bothered though and I think this may be a little used function for us at least. One thing we do use all the time is sending a text from your E45 handset just like you do on your mobile. Overall an excellent buy, we are very pleased.

Quality Piece of Kit,
28th Sep 2007
Having used previous Dect phones from Phillips and Samsung, all of which are now in the bin, it is worth knowing that these phones from Siemens work as you might hope - they are easy to use (worth spending a little time over setting them up), you can hear the caller and be heard clearly (always helps with a phone), and they have some clever touches. They are not the cheapest, but they are worth paying the extra for.
Regards Andrew
TOP QUALITY, HIGH SPEC PHONE,
11th Oct 2007
THIS PHONE FEELS TOP QUALITY, THE PERFORMANCE IS FAULTLESS..AND THE SPEC IS ALL YOU NEED...IT WAS DELIVERED IN 2 DAYS...LIGO SERVICE IS EXCELLENT.
THIS PHONE, AS THE MANUFACTURER STATES, IS VERY ROBUST...PERFECT FOR A FAMILY PHONE....BATTERY LIFE IS BETTER THAN BT OR PHILIPS..THE ONLY SLIGHT DOWN SIDE IS THE RING TONE VOLUME..EVEN ON FULL SEEMS A LITTLE QUIET..OTHER THAN THAT I WOULD RECOMEND THIS PHONE TO EVERYONE WHO WANTS A TOP, LONG LASTING DECT PHONE...

Delighted with this product. Handy hint how to format your UK area codes for sim transfer, International code [00] in top left box then [44] in top right box. National code [0] in bottom left box then [your national code without the first 0] in bottom right box,Enjoy Bill Morris

Landline Phone,

Transferring numbers from my mobile and the clear, easy to read display has made my life a lot easier. Easy to pick up messages and you can see if you have missed calls during the day. Definitely worth the money, in my book.

Excellent cordless system simcard copying brilliant.SMS facility good but need to get to know it having used Nokia mobiles for many years. So many other features similar to mobiles make it the best cordless fone I have ever used

Good workhorse telephone,
18th Jul 2007
This is a sound heavyweight telephone. Not over endowed with features although it performs very well and gives excellent robust service. Sim uploading is limited to about 135 numbers but it is still possible to add further names and numbers manually. I am happy to recommend this telephone. The service I received from Ligo was exceptionally good. Deliver was within 18 hours - quite remarkable...I will certainly buy from them again and I can highly recommend them - ligo electronics - brilliant.

Nice product apart from cheap looking blue plastic circle thing on the back, you can replace this with an even cheaper looking blue plastic circle with a belt clip on it! Screen good and clear and simple menu. Nice features overall and was a good price. Works over a very good range too.

siemens gigaset e455,
10th May 2007
Nice heavy solid feeling phone which makes all the difference in terms of my perception of its quality. The operating system could be improved (it seems a bit dated) and writing text in SMS is quite useless. But I bought it for its solidness and for use as a normal phone and as such Im really happy with it.
Regards Charlie Long
sim card reader,
21st Apr 2007
The SIM card reader is the best new idea in the whole SMS-capable DECT telephone bandwagon. For anyone tired of having to enter your contacts, one by one, copying them manually from your mobile phone to your handset…this is the answer. Like most siemens phones, it’s quite easy to install and operate. The manual is clearly written and it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. Ligo’s service also does not disappoint; it’s my third time to order from them and they’ve consistently delivered their products within one to two days.
Regards Stacy
Siemens Gigaset E455 SIM,
18th Apr 2007
I bought this phone for the SIM card reader/writer, and it met my expectations. I was not expecting much else from the product but it was a pleasant surprise to use. Ease of use is a strong suit of this phone despite the seemingly-complex SIM card reader function. It was easy to set up (got it running in just 15 minutes after it arrived, a day early thanks to liGo), the icon-based menu is very easy to use, and the coloured display is clear and sharp. A very solid all-round cordless phone, well worth the money.
A note to uni students living in a flat with roomies: the SIM reader is probably the most useful thing you’ll ever need. That way, everyone can store their phonebook and won’t lose their numbers. Regards Luke
