Where Style Meets Functionality ... without Breaking the Bank
VTech introduces the LS6195 (MSRP: $59.95), a perfect solution for design-conscious consumers looking to add panache to their home decor. Going back to the future, this device makes a vintage style popular again with a contemporary retro design and hints of classic phone styling. With a cordless handset that rests atop a sleek high gloss black base, this phone is unlike any other design in the home phone industry.
Though the sleek design is reminiscent of phones from decades past, the technology is far from "old fashioned" as this model incorporates VTech's advanced DECT 6.0 digital technology, providing the best sound quality, security and range in cordless phones. The LS6195 turns a piece of everyday technology into a work of art that adds flair to any home.
In addition, consumers can add a splash of color to home decor with the VTech CS6519 phone (MSRP: $19.95). Available in metallic silver, red or blue, this phone also has a high gloss black finish and sleek design that is sure to complement any room – from the kitchen to kids' rooms to the home office. These colorful options are especially great for kids and teens ready for their own phone, and the silent mode ringer control is an added plus for their rooms. In addition, a ringer control setting allows users to program ringers on silent at specific times of the day, preventing pesky interruptions at nighttime, dinner or any other cherished moments at home.
Both of these fashionable phones feature VTech's new Eco Mode power conserving technology, which reduces the overall radio frequency power while the phone is charging and automatically adjusts power requirements according to the phone's distance from the base unit when in use.
"Consumers want phones to fit their lifestyle as well as their personal design tastes," said Matt Ramage, senior vice president, product management, VTech Communications, Inc.
