Review: Yealink W73H Cordless Phone – Wirless handset designed for business
Rating: ★★★★★
The Yealink W73H is a cost-effective and reliable DECT cordless phone, designed for businesses that require long battery life, high-quality audio, and seamless mobility. It is a great choice for offices, retail and hospitality environments where stable voice communication is essential.
Why Choose DECT over Wi-Fi Phones?
Many businesses consider Wi-Fi-based VoIP phones, but DECT technology remains the superior choice for voice communication due to several key benefits:
- Dedicated Frequency & Interference-Free Calls – Unlike Wi-Fi phones that share network bandwidth with other devices, DECT (1.9 GHz) provides a dedicated channel for voice communication, ensuring clear and reliable calls without interference.
- Extended Range – Up to 50m indoors and 300m outdoors, ensuring strong connectivity in larger workspaces.
- Longer Battery Life – DECT handsets consume significantly less power than Wi-Fi phones, resulting in longer talk and standby times.
- Enhanced Security – DECT encryption ensures calls remain private, while Wi-Fi-based VoIP calls may be vulnerable to hacking if networks are not properly secured.
