GE telephones are distinctive in a number of ways apart from being visually stunning. They target multiple niche markets ranging from cordless wall phones to retro cordless phones and now they've got a totally unique feature, a GOOG-411 button. Google 411It's a free service. Users connect via a toll free number. They can then perform searches on businesses in the U.S and Canada. Once a business is selected they are automatically connected. As the service uses speech recognition technology all interaction is via the spoken word.
The addition of a GOOG-411 button to GE cordless phones was a smart move. Once users are hooked on the feature, they are likely to be locked into using GE phones for many years. GE DECT 6.0 Cordless PhonesThe first Google 411 phone that we came across was the GE 28821FE2. It's a glossy DECT 6.0 cordless phone with an integrated digital answering system. It's a great improvement on the GE cordless telephones that we have encountered in the past. It's also scored a good number of favorable cordless phone reviews. Latest GE Cordless Phones
In general we like the latest GE telephones. They are attractive as well as innovative and fulfill the basic requirements we look for in a DECT phone.
The biggest negative we identified was the phonebook. Most of the cordless phones that GE phones compete with have a centralized this function e.g. the Panasonic KX-TG1032S. In the absence of this feature users must manually enter contact details into each connected handset i.e. 50 names and numbers times 2 to 6 handsets. This shortcoming is undoubtedly the major reason why these phones don't get better cordless phone ratings. Final ThoughtsThe latest GE phones are a pleasure to use. The handsets are a decent size and comfortable to grip. For anyone who spends more than an hour or two on the phone every day this is probably one of the most important features.
