Product Description

 
The Siemens 242 is a single-line, caller ID-equipped phone that operates on the 2.4 GHz band. Its 2.4 GHz technology ensures a clearer cordless transmission without static or interference from other cordless phones operating at crowded lower frequencies. Digital spread spectrum technology provides optimum security from eavesdropping by "hopping" frequencies more than 100 times every second. ??The Siemens 242 features built-in caller ID / call waiting ID capability and features a three-line LCD display. This LCD also displays up to 30 calls and provides both redial and the time of the call. The display can also show information in English, French, or Spanish. The Siemens 242 features 10 programmable speed-dial numbers, a choice of four ring tones, base-to-handset paging, ringer and receiver volume controls, two-way charging positions, out-of-range alert, and more. An internal antenna protects the phone against accidental damage. The Siemens 242 comes with a lightweight cordless hand...

Good cordless phone for the price

Date of Review:  Jan 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: For the dollar, a very good cordless phone. Only serious drawback is the lack of backlighting (display and keys).
Review: Background
My wife & I had a Vtech 900 MHz cordless phone that *had* been working fine in our old house. But when we moved into our new house, the Vtech stopped functioning -- it couldn't find and hold a channel (I have reviewed that Vtech...

Good Phone for the price

Date of Review:  Jun 23, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a simple 2.4GH digital cordless phone with caller ID and not with an extravagant price tag than this is the phone to get.
Review: This is my first digital SS cordless 2.4GH phone. Performance is better than my last cordless phone (900MH digital SS). The phone is smaller and does not have an antenna to get in the way, catch and poke things. The buttons on the phone are hard...

Ahhhhhh 2.4 GHz wonder!

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2002
The Bottom Line: This is a very good 2.4 GHz phone for under 100 bucks. In 2000 it was the best, might be better out there now though.
Review: I bought my black Siemens 242 cordless phone on a after Thanksgiving sale spending spree in November of 2000.
I being a person that likes to have the best in electronic devices had been drooling over various 2.4 GHz models at Best Buy, Comp USA...
