Strength:

The Phone is the most elegant and stylish phone on the market, and extremely ergonomic. It looks incredible, and also has a speakerphone.

Weakness:

This phone is rather expensive. It has no caller ID, no inbuilt answerphone, and a limited phonebook memory of 10. There are two speed dials buttons. Even though it has speakerphone it is still not chordless.

I bought this phone beacuse it looked incredible, and the salesman was very good at his job; however, I am only 14 years old, and none of my friends have Bang and Olufsen phones in their bedrooms. The phone looks modern, and is very well designed. I think that the price (£100) can be justified as it is a splendid peice of modern technology. However, it is possible to buy a digital chordless handset of a more well known make for the same price or even cheaper.
The functions are not particually impressive, and I clearly wasted my money here. However, this is considerably better than my previous phone which was extremely basic and cost £9.99. For £150, you can buy the beocom 2500, which has a larger memory, and other small functions.
This phone is suitable for the high class businessman, but not the average teenager.

Strength:

Design, quality and all the features.

Weakness:

Maybe the price, but hey its a B&O!!!

Nice phone, with good sound quality, light earphone, fast dialling, and a good volume control.

After a year the earphone started to sound harsh (play in the cableplug). It is replaceable.
