RTX Dualphone 3088

Unfortunately I have been quite disappointed with this phone. I have already had to have it replaced once (which was quite a tedious process in itself) but now after a few months use the replacement handset abruptly loses power and switches itself off without warning even if it has been sitting on the charger for a long period. Generally speaking I feel the quality of the components leaves something to be desired. The audio levels are frustratingly low and slow to regulate, the menu navigation is clunky and the landline only works through the transmitter unit which therefore must be powered at all times. Not very eco friendly and renders the landline useless in a power cut. Updating the firmware is a long tedious business too. It's great to have a voip handset but frankly, I'd like one that just works thank you very much. This just makes me use my mobile phone in frustration.

I too bought one of these phones and it worked very well... for a while. Then came the day it wanted to update its internal software (or whatever)... it hung! I couldn't do anything with it... and it has never worked from that day to this. In effect, then, I paid out to have a phone that worked for 3 months at most!! Trying to find out where the company was located and what to do to get a replacement was beyond tedious... I gave up and counted my losses!

I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone! A shame, as it was/is a great idea.

Same as above, worked for a while then base station crashed, trying to get a replacement is near impossible, Invoice said i-voip but I brought on the Skype website now nobody will except responsibilty!!!!! Waste of money don't bother

I have had mine for a while now, the updates all worked automatically, and the machine works quite well. The received audio is a bit down or maybe its the position I hold it but putting it straight to speaker and its magic. I have had the opportunity to contact the Manufacturer / Supplier in Holland but they did take a few days to respond. There does seem to be a small glitch with some french numbers and sometimes a bit of a delay. Range here is limited to less than 100m but that is almost certainly due to the radio black hole of this part of france.
The manufacturer importer can give updates so they can be loaded manually (so I was informed).
Down sides, no land line logging, only skype names, neccessity to go thru all contacts to find a number, in my case over 200, slow!! needs a search by initial.
Incidentally, all our stuff now runs on a UPS (on line) to allow calls without power and to stop modem problems.
Nice bit of kit, really easy to install, use etc.
any further info I will update this
