Ibought a beetel DF 6000 CLIP(caller id ) for RS 870(underexchange),this phone has many features like 25 name phone bookmemory.It is the only phone in this price range to have a decent,audible ringer volume.


Earlier I have bought many Chinese phoneswhich will only last for 3 months to the maximum,so I thought I wouldgo for a beetel as their was an exchange offer for beetel & GEphones,this worked out like this,the basic phone from beetel with CLIPwould cost you Rs700/-


But that phone doesn’t have enough soundfor the ring tones,the ring tones were so feeble that the shopkeeperoften recomends to buy a ringer buzzer(used to increase the ringtonevolume connected in parallel to phoneline)This


thing would cost you around Rs150/-.


SO the total cost of basic CLIP phone+buzzer=700+150=850/-.


Butyou should not connect this things like buzzer bcos it may hinder thevoice clarity of talking and if you are using internet with your phoneline, the buzzer may introduce some noise which can reduce the speed ofdial up connections.


Instead if u go for the DF6000 clip youwill get decent ringer volume without the need for extra buzzer thecost of the phone is RS 995/- if you exchange your old phone (they willeven take the damaged chinese ones) you will get Rs 125 discount so thetotal cost is Rs870/- only.


The phone till date doesnt have any complaints.


Onlyproblem is the the phone book,it is not like that in cellphones so,ifthe incoming number has a prefix like 91(especially calls from BSNLmobile has this country code ,the phone won’t recognize the name,thesame problem with STD codes usually the incoming STD code wont hav the’0’ inthe beginnig so if we want to recognize an incoming number wewill have to store it without


the ’0’ in the beginning.


This problem could have been avoided if their was more than one area code setting as in other phones.But they forgot to do so


8 Direct One touch Memory-this helps in directly dialling the frequntly used nos


Thedesign of the phone could have been made better if they used the samekind of shiny plastic every where, Instead the shiny appearance is onlygiven to the handset.


Overall it is a nice buy bcos there is no phone with similar features in this price range.


Ifyou want a phone with a loud ringer then ,go for a phone without thespeaker phone option,if the phone has a speaker this would be used forthe ring tones thats why the volume reduces ,only panasonic phones haveseparate buzzer for ring tones,also I dont know if beetel has any suchphones,ofcourse there can be some in the cordless range of their phones


I think airtel is a subsidiary of bharti ,which makesbeetel,thats why you can see some of these phones in the airtel landphone range,also airtel people often gives this types of phones asbusiness gifts to their business clients.


Well about thechinese phones,they are very eye catching,but lasts only for 2-3months,you cant repair them because they use the IC which is fused onto the circuit board,most often the IC fails because it is staticsensitive device in any condition this IC will fail if used in anyphone line in any part of the world because the ,the surges from thephone line is enough to damage the IC,


such cheap ics are othertypes of devices like cheap mp3 players,they dont fail often becausesuch types of players are often free from surges as they are notconnected to the line always,we cant remove the IC or repair them.Theprice of thes phones in wholsale markets is Rs100-200 only.


But they are often sold at Rs 300-500,in most shops.

GEphones with CLIP start from the price range of Rs 995/-,But the problemwith the basic model in the GE range is the same feeble ringersound,But GE says their phones are approved by HDA singapore.


But the GE phone are have that eye appealing factor,nice silver-grey combination.


I recommend you to go for call-waiting caller id phone if money is not a problem,


theadvantage of this type of phones is that if an incoming call comeswhile you are talking,then you can see the incoming no.But these phonesare not presently available from any manufacturer in india.It is onlyavailable in some PANASONIC model and cost around Rs3000/-+.
