Do you still have to slide the bottom of the screen to answer the phone, or can you just pick up the handset?

No the phone will still work like you normally use it. The stand itself is more aesthetic than the appearance of function. It is a fancy charging stand with a modified headset that looks like a phone receiver.

Yes, you just put the call on HOLD and any of the other lines (handset or base) can pick it up

No. The phone does not respond to voice commands. One must use the keypad to access the menu or dial the phone.

Yes you have to remove the phone to answer but it is easy to remove from your belt and has a neat little stand feature so you can place it on your desk for quick access. Hope I helped.

Lift the handset or use your phone speaker option. It's your choice. I bought the stand because I'm using a cell phone for work - I wanted my hands to be free. I just prefer to use the handset. But I absolutely love the iCooly. It's everything I hoped it would be. Simple but so handy.

Yes, you need the phone with you and within a certain range of the Bluetooth device. I don't see in the directions where it says you need to answer the call on your phone. The purpose of a Bluetooth is so you don't have to do that! You click on the headset to answer the phone. Read the directions again carefully. It says "to answer a call press and release the [Call] button or press the answer key on your mobile phone. It says "OR".

Very easy, even with light work gloves I can answer the phone. I keep my phone in my shirt pocket and I adjust the volume on my phone with gloves on. I hope this helps.

Yes. There is a Multi-function button on top of the left ear bud that you can press to answer calls without touching your phone. It is also the power button for the device (which you hold down for 5 seconds to turn on or off).

No, not to answer the phone. You have to hit answer on the phone but after that it is hands free until you hang up.

If you have it already flipped open and are getting a call , just press the silver button on the face of the device once and you will answer the call coming in without having to touch your phone . You can also disconnect the call you're on the same way . If you are on your phone and want to use your blue tooth , just open up your device (flip open) and that will turn it on too .

Not really. You can get the phone out, but I wouldn't call it fast or easy!

No. Just open the door to the cover and answer your phone. It's a great thing.

If you do not have the "handset lifter" you have to pick the receiver up everytime. When I answer my phone at work, I have to turn on the headset and then lift the receiver. Hope this helps

Super easy, just push the down button on the face of the handset, or the down button on the circle on the base.

you can answer the call without opening the flap. it does not affect the sound quality at all.

you do not take it out of the case when you answer a call. I just fold the cover over and hold it like normal.

You will need to open the case in order to answer it manually. However, if you use Bluetooth, it's truly hands free. Hope this helps.
