Hi, Susan. We are very pleased with the phone and answering machine. When a person calls, the voice announces who it is from (this can be eliminated if you don't like the voice). You can also hear the voice of the person calling as they leave the message as well. Hope this helps. Best Al B.

Yes, the handset will speak the name or number of the caller (sometimes with humorous attempts with pronunciation), and yes, it will do so without picking up the phone. And, if you have a full service cable company providing phone, TV, and computer, the name and number will also appear on your TV screen if your TV is turned on.

Yes if you have a separate answering machine or voice mail service which automatically picks up after a designated number of rings (even though you don't hear them). This phone does not have an integral answering machine

I don't understand the question. Are you asking if the phone ringer can be muted so it does not ring, but you could still answer the phone?

Yes, the base unit has an Answering Machine. I also purchased 3 additional Handsets for different rooms in my house. From any handset you can tell if you have a Message, and listen to it. You can also call any of the other Handsets. This is the greatest phone I've ever owned, it has so many great features.
