Next Generation features keep you informed Explore the world around you from the comfort of your own phone. The Gigaset C475 IP lets you enjoy free access to an online phonebook directly from your handset. That means you can quickly find any number you need (Chinese take-away, auto repair shop …) and dial straight away. Plus, the free info services available through Gigaset.net Info Center put weather forecasts and RSS feeds from your favorite websites right onto your handset via the screensaver. That’s what we mean by Next Generation communication convenience.
ECO DECT for saving energy and costs Thanks to the energy-saving power supply, the Gigaset C475 IP uses up to 60% less energy than our conventional cordless phones – making it easier on the environment and more cost effective. Like all Gigaset cordless phones, it also variably reduces transmitting power from the handset to base station according to their distance apart – but goes further in a number of other ways. Choosing ECO Mode on this model reduces the base station’s transmission power by 80%. As a result, you can enjoy a more energy-efficient way of staying connected with the world. *Please note, the C475IP range is not Skype compatible less

VoIP Phone of the future,
15th Apr 2008
I had this phone delivered about a week ago and I have found it to be well worth the £80 price tag. Its easy to use and in a week I know just about every function on the phone. I find the email setting really useful as it means I don't have to have the computer on to check for new emails. The sound quality is very good on both lines (VoIP & Landline). The only thing that took time was configuring my VoIP account, as it was not on the pre-sets for the phone, (it took about two hours of work to find my settings in relation to the Gigaset). However, I'm very happy in all with the phone and would highly recommend the Gigaset C475 IP DECT VoIP.
I found the reception of the phone from the base station to be very good. I've used mine outside in the back garden with the base station at the front off the house and I had no problems with reception even with the EGO mode turn on, which can save you up to 60% energy usage. Battery life is also very good with about 6 days standby time and about 4 hours talk time from a full charge.

Excellent products,Questionable Siemens Support,
16th Apr 2008
The phone is great.Simple, straight forward, excellent voice quality.
There is a major bug in the Web configuration interface.the button to SAVE setting on the info services page just IS NOT THERE.It took me several emails to even get Siemens support to give me a response relating to my question.Giving them VERY specific details about the problem they bombarded me with unrelated questions.The problem is a simple HTML error that can be fixed in the next firmware.So far they have not confirmed they even understand what the problem is.So,untill they do not fix it you can not use the CLOCK screen saver on the handset as it is taken over by the info services.

Glyn Anslow,
16th Apr 2008
Brilliant phone.Only gripe is there are not enough voip providers that siemans provides for downloading.
Just a tip for anyone setting up.
if you use sms discount or voip cheap put your username and password in the setup box and download from Siemans voipstunt for the voip settings and both will work ok.only they will not work if you use the provided voip settings on there site.
If you use vyke. as above put your username and password in for that provider but download the settings for voip Buster from Siemans for Vyke to work. As you can see the phone needs a little tweaking but once done works really well and the quality is better than your local landline.

Excellent IP Phone,
19th Apr 2008
I've been really pleased with this phone so far, it was quite simple to set up. I've got two different services set up on it and it's easy to select which one you want to dial out with when not using the default. Being able to just glance at it to see a weather forecast for the next couple of days is quite a nice feature.

Great VOIP phone, very clear,
16th Apr 2008
Easy to set up on VOIP calls, very clear for both fixed line and VOIP calls, good array of features. Very happy with the purchase. The only minor negative is the lack of choice for decent phone ring tones, although not a big issue.

Almost perfect VoIP phone,
1st Jul 2008
I've had this phone for a couple of weeks now, and I'm pretty impressed.
I've been using Skype on a Mac for a couple of years now, and expected call quality to be similar, but it's much better. The calls are pretty clear (maybe slightly more muffled than the old landline phone), and there's no delay or echo.
Regards Pete.
