A dual phone for all your callsskype

That means you can replace your traditional handset with a single Philips VoIP phone for all your Skype and regular calls. Simply switch between regular and internet calling at the push of a button any time you like.

Calls for Free

With the VOIP 321 you can make free Skype calls as well as normal landline calls.  You can make and take calls on both networks from one single handset, and you can see who is on-line without going to the PC, just by looking at the display.

* With Skype you can enjoy making free calls all over the world to other Skype users only.

The Philips VoIP dual phone is incredibly easy to set up. You can start calling after just three simple steps*:

  1. Power up by connecting to a mains power outlet.
  2. Plug in to both your regular phone line and an internet line.
  3. Sign in to Skype using your existing Skype username and password or by creating a new account directly via the phone.

That's all there is to making and receiving Skype and regular calls right away. Simply use the handset to select your Skype buddies or dial a regular number and you'll be talking in moments. You don't even need to turn on your computer.

Switch simply between Skype and your landline

Switching between Skype and regular calling is as simple as pushing a button because the Philips VoIP dual phone is always connected to your internet and landline. For regular numbers not yet on your contact list, simply dial the number and select the landline option from the on-screen menu.

*For the VoIP 080 and 321 phones you need to install software.

   

Use Skype freely anywhere in your houseLifestyle

The Philips VoIP dual phone works cordlessly with DECT technology so you don't need to be next to your PC every time you use Skype. You can make all your calls via the cordless handset and roam freely around your home while you phone.

The beauty of advanced design

A dual phone with a sleek and elegant design. Slim and curved, it will look good in your home and feel great in your hand. And it's more than a pretty face, because the Philips VoIP dual phone is designed from top to bottom for complete convenience and ease of use.

Crystal clear phone calls

Skype has crystal clear sound that makes it seems like you're actually in the same room as the person with whom you're talking. That's because the technology behind Skype doesn't compress the audio for that muffled effect you usually get with regular phones. The Philips VoIP takes this one step further with Voice Enhancing Technology. You'll never want to go back to regular calling!

Skype line and landline

The Philips VoIP dual phone makes and takes both regular landline calls and free Skype calls. That means you can keep your landline number and make calls the way you always do, as well as benefiting from all the advantages of Skype.

Speakerphone

Use the speakerphone to make hands-free calls or take advantage of Skype free conference calling with up to nine friends at once.

Stay in touch with technology too

Skype is constantly upgraded and updated with new and improved features - like enhanced conference calling - that you'll be able to download and use via your Philips VoIP handset, just like using Skype on a computer

Skype Certified

The Philips VoIP is Skype certified. That means it not only works perfectly with Skype but also feels great to use.

Skype conference calling.

Skype also lets you make free conference calls with up to nine people at once. Invite all your friends or family to chat on one call and enjoy the party!

2007 CES Innovations Design and Engineering Awards.

The Philips VoIP dual phones have been awarded in 2007 with the CES Innovations Design and Engineering Awards. The prestigious awards are given to groundbreaking consumer electronics products with outstanding design and engineering.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Phone ...but VISTA users BEWARE!!, 6 Aug 2007
We've been using Olympia Dual Skype phones for 3 years or more. The problem with them is that after about 6 months of use the display starts to disappear. At the time we first got the Olympia it was the only Cordless Skype phone available. Now there is a wider choice. We thought Philips would be pretty reliable and opted for the 3212 Duo phone set - at just a few pounds more than the 3211 single phone. The package arrived with a small clear instruction booklet - which we followed exactly ... and that was a mistake as the supplied software is designed for Windows XP and does not work with Windows Vista. If you want to use these phones on Vista you will need to download the Vista compatible software from the Philips site 1st - DO NOT use the supplied disk. If in doubt search the Skype forums for VOIP321 - where you may find solutions to the Vista problems. OK so we wasted many hours trying numerous different ways to get the software installed before we finally succeeded - but once we didthe phones themselves are great. Unlike the Olympia - with the Voip321 - you can put your phones anywhere you like in your house - it is only the little base-transmitter-box than needs to plug in to the PC. The sound quality is pretty good. The menus and options on the phones are easy to use - they appear to work happily with both Skype and normal calls, so hopefully we will now have several years of trouble free use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing product but impressed with Amazon, 16 Oct 2008
By A. Cooper (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I wish I had read a few more reviews for this before I bought it. Firstly, I was expecting a 'no pc required' voip phone and was disappointed to discover it wasn't. However, I thought I would give it a go as we needed a new landline phone. In hindsight, a yoghurt pot and a piece of string would have provided a clearer call than this "phone" - it was worse than dire. I could not hear the 3rd party, despite turning the volume up to max and the interference was awful - every few seconds an intermittent crackling noise which lasted about 5 seconds would occur. This was never a problem with our old portable handsets so I knew it was the actual phone as opposed to our telephone line. In it's defence, the quality of the skype call was crystal clear but we needed it primarily as a landline and so we sent it back. I sent it back by courier 2 days ago and received an email from Amazon this morning to inform me that a full refund was going through. I would never ever buy a Philips phone again and would recommend everyone gives this particular model a wide berth, however, on a brighter note, Amazon were excellent and I am very impressed at their very speedy, no nonsense returns and refund policy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Skype Phone Does work with VISTA, 4 Jun 2008
By T. KINVER "KK" (Pembs, Wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having purchased this twin pack from Amazon without reading the reviews and as I experienced over 3 hours of lost time trying to get it to work. I use Vista Ultimate. All the problems previously reported in other Amazon reviews happened to me (the phone was connected to the computer but not recognised by Skype) - in the end I solved the problem by completely removing skype from my computer, connecting the phones hub directly into a usb port on my tower and installing the download from Philips' website (file called; voip3211s_01_cdi_eng), make sure the compatibility mode (XP version) & `run this program as an administrator' is used for the USB phone driver (right click on icon & select compatibility tab). The downloaded software also installs a version of skype that works - do not be tempted to install the very latest skype program as this caused the same connecting problems. The phone works great - took a bit of head scratching to conclude that you have to use the big `S' button to make your skype calls and if the number is one that is not already in your skype contacts then you have to dial it by dropping the `0' and replacing it with `+44', the `+' digit is inputted by holding down the `0' for a couple of seconds. Very good range on phone, good sound & build quality. Aprently it works fine with Windows XP. Also read the reviews for the single handset option.
