This feature enhances user control over incoming calls, allowing them to decide whether to answer based on the displayed caller information. Furthermore, the BT 1800 offers a call log that records recent calls, simplifying the process of returning missed calls.

Battery life is another critical aspect of the BT 1800, with a long standby and talk time that ensures users can rely on the device throughout the day without frequent recharging. The cordless aspect provides users with the freedom to move around their environment without being tethered to a wall outlet.

Additionally, the phone includes features such as an intercom for communication between handsets, speakerphone functionality for hands-free calls, and alarm and reminder features that cater to various user needs.
