Is the Caller ID backlit when a call comes in?

Yes. The display goes to sleep, but lights up when a call comes in. Hope this helps. Really like this phone. No muss, no fuss -- just the right amount of features at a great price.

No, it is not backlit when the call comes in. It is the same display as when the phone is sitting idle.

If someone has called me from another area code, I simply pick up the receiver, pull up their ID call number and hit the dial button. IF the caller is local, I have not been able to do the same. However, I'm told that this is possible once I complete the required ID processes. I LIKE this phone...only wish the caller ID screen had a brighter image (or a light).

A blinking light, but it's bright and noticeable and calls can be screened if you're home. You can clearly hear the caller leaving a message and there's plenty of time to pick up the call before they hang up.

On my phone, the caller is identified on the hand-held screen - when the call comes in when the phone is in use, the ID shows on the hand-held screen while "ringing," then disappears if you do not pickup.

No its not backlit at all times, but touching any button on the face will backlite it for about 10 seconds. Backlighting also comes on when a alert is issued as well as the top lights Green (advisory) Orange (watch) Red (Warning)

Yes, however your phone service has to have this feature turned on. The phone will capture the caller ID.

I have not had this complaint about this from my callers. One thing I noticed though is that the caller ID takes at least two ring before it gets recognized.

There is no alert tone. there is a subtle, blinking, red light that you can see if you look directly at and down on the master. There is a blinking, yellow light on each ot the handsets. They do tell you when the call was made.

It does not announce who the caller is. You need to look at your phone to see specifically who is calling.

Yes. As far as I know. This is one of the few phones that have a voicemail indicating light on the base.

The screen is most definitely NOT backlit. The only lights on this phone are the Incoming Call light above the screen, and the Mute and Speaker buttons when activated. If you go to the official description at telephones.att.com, they make no mention of backlighting (or Dect 6.0 cordless compatibility either - Amazon refuses to correct these errors). The model with full screen backlighting is the CL4940.

As far as I know, no. When I had the phone I didn't see any. But its a good phone except for the back light not staying lit for very long.

No the number do not light up when you dial them. Besides that it is a great phone. I use it for work at home.

Yes it has caller ID----also has voice caller ID--- works well. You can hear who is calling before you read callers name.
