Not without words: I had made bold in the quote that Deliverer had written about a phone or the charging station. "Charging station" implies handset.
Tapatalk apparently does not show bold. Or at least not in quotes.
But that does not exclude it. This device type is just apparently unknown to you: handset, WLAN with SIP client. Or alternatively not an additional device at all but the smartphone with WLAN and SIP client.
With voice devices, I personally prefer the transmission quality.
HD telephony via DECT is certainly not bad. The codec via VOIP is freely selectable, with at least equivalent quality, if not better. But the "bottleneck" will be the public network; no matter how great codecs you use in the local network.
Okay. I always thought DECT had a significantly better range. I need 2 APs for WLAN so that I have reception in every room at all. The DECT phone has full reception everywhere with only one base (in the router).
The range is better, yes. But here it was criticized that with reinforced concrete ceilings the Fritzbox in the basement simply does not reach the upper floor, so it should be positioned on the ground floor (and the internet access must be routed back to the basement via a double socket). Someone even posted a picture of the box high up on the wall in the hallway – yikes!
Solution 1: use DECT repeaters
Solution 2: if the house is supplied with WLAN anyway (one access point per floor), save DECT repeaters and connect the telephony devices via WLAN.
