Gigaset COMFORT 500 DECT telephone Caller ID Black, Silver

The perfect combination: using the phone can be this simple
Why choose when you can have everything at the same time? The Gigaset COMFORT 500 impresses with its timelessly elegant design, perfect ergonomics, high technology and maximum convenience. It is the ideal phone for your home and desk. The technology under its stylish case is innovative and its numerous functions will impress you. So this cordless phone can be seen — but also heard, as it has excellent acoustics too. And when you are working from home, you will always have your hands free thanks to the headset connection and integrated speakerphone. The Gigaset COMFORT 500A model also offers an integrated answering machine with a recording time of up to 30 minutes.

Navigation to perfection: using the phone can be this pleasant
Welcome to your personal comfort zone: The Gigaset COMFORT 500 is so easy and pleasant to use that nothing distracts you from what's important — your conversations. It meets the highest Gigaset quality standards and navigation is intuitive. And the large, high-contrast TFT colour display (44 x 35 mm) offers everything you would expect from a modern cordless phone: Graphics and fonts that ensure optimum legibility, a variety of colour schemes and symbols for operating the main menu. 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-friendly
When 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. You can also assign your own VIP melodies to the most important people in your life, so you can hear who is calling you straight away.

Now it's personal: your Gigaset COMFORT 500 is so unique
If you have high expectations, the Gigaset COMFORT 500 is just right for you. This cordless phone is even better thanks to its personalisation options, as you can customise it to your individual preferences! Among other things, you can choose between different display backgrounds: Either the preset dark background, which matches the modern design of the COMFORT 500, or a high-contrast white background. For the screensaver, you can choose between an analogue or digital clock. You can also customise the sound of this high-quality Gigaset phone: Choose the right frequency range from two acoustic profiles for an optimal listening experience. You can even assign your own ringtones to important callers. Sound good? That's exactly how it should be.

Convenience with the Gigaset COMFORT 500A: so you never miss a call
It answers the phone when you can't: You can rely on the Gigaset COMFORT 500A's integrated answering machine at all times. It records calls when you're on the move or indisposed, or if you just don't feel like speaking on the phone. You decide when and where you want to listen to messages: via the handset, the base station or remotely. Even in the event of a power failure, nothing is lost; your recordings are backed up indefinitely. The Gigaset COMFORT 500A's answering machine can be configured to suit your needs and has a recording time of up to 30 minutes. You can also specify the recording length. And you can record a personal greeting message to make your phone unique. Guaranteed.

For old and young: using the phone is for all ages
Communication 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.

Always there, always close: your phone is so compatible
When 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 friendly
Cordless 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.
