Radiotelephones with a display on the base

Base display

— the display placed on the base of the phone may have a larger size than the screen on the handset — the base is not so limited in size. Another important convenience is that such a screen can be seen by holding the handset to the ear. The features of the display on the base is usually quite simple, often it is a simple two-digit indicator. And even in more advanced models, the screen is used mainly for basic service information (dialed number, incoming call number, new message notifications, etc.) and is almost never made in colour.
