does this tell the # calling??

It doesn't with my flip phone (no smart phone for me), but I don't know if it would with a different phone.

The number calling shows on my phone just like Normal. The phone number is not announced through the boothtooth.

No the incoming number shows and the name associated with the number. The screen does not light up. I do like the phone however.

If you have the number stored in your phone it will tell you when the person calls. If the number isn't saved it just tells you that there is a call and does not tell you the number.

Yes they do along with the callers phone number unless the caller's number is blocked, in that case it will display "Private" or "Unknown" as well as verbal acknowledgement.

When a phone call comes in, it speaks just the name you see on caller ID, not the number. It does this in-between rings.

It says the name and it will say the number if the caller's name is not on the caller I.D.

Yes, and while receiving a call it will read the name of the caller in between rings.

ONLY if you want to see the phone number that is calling, otherwise it will follow the lists you establish. My unit stopped working after about a year. I discovered in the meantime that my cable phone service (Charter) provided tools to prevent problem calls. When it worked it did fine but I evidently was not the only person who had problems with its service. PS - if your power goes off you have to reprogram the unit again - a pain.

Yes it does, it also reads out the caller ID between rings. That way if you aren't near the handset, you'll know who's calling.

Yes. You have to subscribe to caller ID with whatever phone carrier you're using, but yes, it shows the number and if that name is in the phonebook that you program in yourself (very easy) then the name shows up too.

It is claims to be able to do that, but with my galaxy SII it will only announce the number and my phone book is up to date. I do have auto blocking with my provider so if I want someone to see my number I have to have *82 in front of the number I'm calling so most of my contacts are stored with this included into their numbers. So when they call me the phone may not be able to recognize the incoming call because of the *82.

IF the caller's name is in your directory. It only announces numbers otherwise. It will announce a listed caller just like you have it in your directory. ie: Call from Tom Smith, or Call from "Insurance" (if that is how the number is programed into your telephone.

Yes, it tells you in the directions that you can just program 1 number so when they push it, it does nothing. Or program your number in case there is an emergency.

Mine does show who is calling. You may want to check with your phone company. I have trouble connecting new hand sets. I wish I went with a Panasonic:(

None,it doesn't work that way all calls go through your Caller ID and Answering Machine.As two other people have commented on this,i couldn't have said it better myself,if you buy it you won't believe the quiet you'll get from it.I'm still very happy with mine,this was a wise investment on my part.

Yes you can. It had caller ID too, once u enter the number and name it identifies who is calling. Otherwise it identifies the number that is calling

No, It will only tell you the phone that the call is on (you can pair more than 1 phone to it). for example: "Call on Phone One"It only does caller ID for Text Messages.
