Is the cordless phone made so flat the call can be cut off by a cheek bone or other part of the face?

The phone's working surface is curved. That said We found that the phone is very difficult to hear - the speaker phone increases quality but only marginally.

No. Mine did not have a flat faced, angled plug. Also the cord made was way too short for good usability.

Wow, Juanita, but it does not look like it could be as it rests in the charging unit at something of an angle. But it essential here as it allows this quite hard of hearing user to be able to answer the phone, and have some use of it. I recommend it. It was very frustrating to know that maybe the telephone rang, and even if I answered, I would not know who called. It can be amplified to quite a loud level. I wear two aids. Pep

Yes. There is a Multi-function button on top of the left ear bud that you can press to answer calls without touching your phone. It is also the power button for the device (which you hold down for 5 seconds to turn on or off).

Yes you can make calls. It's sort of uncomfortable up against your ear and the sound is a bit muffled

You have the option of silencing just the base, or just the handset, or both. You can select on your own

works great but, not on the kind of battery you talking about flat phone battery only

No, the whole phone is not plastic, mostly wood. The numbers/letters are plastic and push buttons for dialing. We put a 25 ft. cord on the ear/mouth piece. The only thing I miss on it is caller ID, but when we lose power we must have a regular phone. We mostly use our cordless phones.

No-this is just a simple, inexpensive, corded phone that has a button to push for people who are hearing impaired to assist them in hearing telephone calls. The phone also rings very loudly.

Not that I've noticed. It may muffle the speaker some, but this isn't really a loud phone anyway. My biggest complaint is that it's difficult to remove.

The lip is slightly raised. I think it is enough to put the phone face down without the screen touching.

There is a hole cut out at the top of the case. I do not use an earpiece. The top flap has to be open when making or receiving a call.

While I haven't used phone frequently in the situation you described, I can advise that I have not had a problem. The one disappointment that I have with this phone is that the cord is not replaceable. I had hoped to use as a wall phone, but cord is much too short. It has been put into service as a desk phone.

Yes and no -- had never noticed it til you asked. It does have a small rubber cover/boot that can be removed to do a battery replacement. It has a smaller version of the battery you see in many cordless phones. Two pin plug, very short wire and battery. Seems easy enough to replace. The reason I mention no, is I don't know if the the rubber cover is designed for constant swaps. Nor do I believe it is hot-swappable, meaning the conversation in process is not dropped.

Not exactly. The whole face don't come off but there's a small part of the face does come off for security purpose.

Yes, very narrowly. The lip rises above the face of the phone slightly so that if you set it face downn on a smooth surface the glass wouldn't touch it.

Yes, it's just like using a normal handset. However, I've had friends tell me that the first second or so of what I'm saying is cut off.
