Is the Sound Quality Really That Good? Hearing is believing. Gigaset take pride in the sound quality our phones deliver. We've created High Sound Performance (HSP) protocols to provide better sound quality than normal analogue landline phones. To protect our phones from sound quality degradation caused by electronic interference from other devices, we test each prototype phone in an electromagnetic testing chamber. It is isolated from the rest of the testing laboratory & shielded with dampening material. Our phones easily withstand testing cycles that transmit power levels of up to 2, 500 volts. This testing ensures that each phone has exceptional sound quality
- even in areas with large amounts of electronic interference. Convenient Data Storage The Gigaset A120 stores numbers to make everyday calling more convenient. The call list with up to 25 entries means that you can see the past 25 missed & received calls & a separate call list stores the past 10 numbers you've entered for quick redialling. You can store the numbers of up to 50 contacts in the phonebook, keeping your friends & family reachable in seconds. Practical Information With the Gigaset A120, you have immediate access to the information you need throughout the day & as you make & receive calls. The date & call duration are indicated on the phone & the alarm function means that you can program a reliable reminder should you need it. You will also always know who is trying to reach you when the phone rings, as the Gigaset A120 comes with a caller ID function.
