It is also very convenient, as jumbo mode enables extra-large display of digits when dialling. The large individual keys with noticeable key press and the illuminated keypad make the Gigaset COMFORT 500 the perfect companion in your everyday life.Activating call protection: your phone is so user-friendlyWhen your phone just won't stop ringing: The Gigaset COMFORT 500 can block unwanted calls. The newly developed comfort call protection reliably protects you from advertising calls or dangerous telephone scams. You can easily block up to 150 phone numbers: Unwanted callers can be entered in a blacklist or transferred directly from the call history log. You can also block or mute anonymous callers at any time. And thanks to time control, you can determine time periods when your phone should or should not ring. However, you can give certain callers preferential treatment by entering them in a VIP address book, so you can speak to them at any time. The call protection feature of the Gigaset COMFORT 500 is even more comprehensive if you only allow callers who are in your address book. With this setting, all other calls are blocked.Everything in the address book: your phone is so good at communicating"We'll be in touch!" this often sounds easier than it is: Where did you put that phone number again Do they have another phone number And when is their birthday again The Gigaset COMFORT 500's address book makes communication convenient, as it can store up to 200 contacts, each with three phone numbers. These entries can also be easily exchanged between your Gigaset handsets. It is also practical: The programmable speed dial keys allow you to reach preferred callers more quickly, without tedious typing. Thanks to the automatic birthday reminder, you'll never miss their special day again.

Guaranteed.For old and young: using the phone is for all agesCommunication is not a question of age: Thanks to its easy-to-read display and hearing aid compatibility, older people can also enjoy the Gigaset COMFORT 500. We have also thought of the next generation: The direct call function means that all keys trigger the dialling of a preassigned number. This is perfect for young children who cannot yet read, as the right number is always called no matter which key they press. The baby phone function is also very practical: When a noise threshold is exceeded, the Gigaset COMFORT 500 automatically establishes a connection to other handsets in the household or even to mum or dad's smartphone. In baby phone mode, incoming calls are only indicated visually on the display without any ringtone.Flexibility guaranteed: the Gigaset COMFORT 500A IP flex is so functionalWireless is good, digital is better: Internet telephony and IP-based connections have many advantages. You benefit from HD sound quality, multiple numbers per connection and the possibility of simultaneous calls. To do this, simply connect your IP DECT phone system to the LAN port of the router or the LAN network. The latter is very practical if the router and telephone base station are located far apart, for example in the basement and upstairs.The Gigaset COMFORT 500A IP flex allows you to manage up to six IP-based phone numbers from multiple providers. You can assign up to six compatible handsets and three answering machines to the phone numbers. Sound complicated It really isn't: As a user, you only enter your phone number. Even if you want to use the Gigaset COMFORT 500A IP flex in "non-IP-based" mode, this phone system including answering machine ensures convenient calling even on analogue connections.Always there, always close: your phone is so compatibleWhen it rings again somewhere else: A Gigaset cordless phone makes you very mobile, but in everyday life it's not always exactly where you need it. Are you in the basement, but the phone is ringing in the kitchen That's easy to solve: The Gigaset COMFORT 500 is expandable up to a total of six handsets, which you can place anywhere in your home. Whether in the kitchen, home office, living room or bedroom you are sure to always have a device to hand. The Gigaset COMFORT 500 is very compatible, it can also be expanded with the Gigaset HX handsets. You can find an overview of all HX handsets ...Cordless and radiation-free: your phone is so environmentally friendlyCordless phones are practical, but the cordless phones from Gigaset are also environmentally friendly. This is thanks to the ECO DECT technology that the Gigaset COMFORT 500 series is equipped with. But what exactly does ECO DECT mean The phones are radiation-free when in standby mode, even when you're using multiple handsets, provided that the base and all connected handsets support ECO DECT. During a call, the transmission strength automatically adapts to the distance between the handset and the base. This means that the shorter the distance between the base and handset of the Gigaset COMFORT 500, the lower the radiation. To make use of the maximum DECT range, you can also deactivate ECO DECT mode at any time.
