Innovage Retro Phone Handset

I had bought a similar product from another company and loved it so much I bought this one online. Smartphones are built to be looked at, not to be talked on: they are flat and the speaker and microphones are small and are not in the best places. You can hear so much better with these handsets and the mike is put right where your mouth is so the other side hears you so much better. This is also a gazillion time better (and a fraction of the price) of a bluetooth headset. I have a Jawbone but only use that when I drive. If am calling from work or have an extended phone call, I use the corded handset. I can hear better and the other side hears me better. Also, no batteries to worry about.There is a pick up/hang up button on the handle so it is really quick even if your phone screen has blacked out. Compared to my other brand handset: this one has a volume adjust, which my first one does not have; the rubberized surface feels thinner/harder; the edges are a little sharper so does not look as nice. None of which are big negatives. By the way, my other one is fluorescent orange (comes in many colors), so it is fun; this one is black and is less obvious when I use it at work.
