does the caller id light up

Yes, there is a red light that flashes when you have caller IDs to check. When you press the Caller ID button, the phone displays and announces the phone number. However, if someone calls who is programmed into the phones memory, the phone displays the number and the voice announces the name that is programmed into the phone.

No the incoming number shows and the name associated with the number. The screen does not light up. I do like the phone however.

No, the phone does not have an answering system, but does have caller ID. There is a red flashing light that is to the right of the viewing window that appears if somebody else is using another land line phone in your residence. It is a nice phone, simple, and does not look cheap

It does not announce who the caller is. You need to look at your phone to see specifically who is calling.

I think it does show the caller, but I am not sure about the beep. Sorry. I only had the phone for 6 months and it died.

It does SHOW the name/number for a call-waiting incoming call. However, the talking caller ID only announces when it's the first call not a call-waiting.

When a phone call comes in, it speaks just the name you see on caller ID, not the number. It does this in-between rings.

Hi Erick. In fact, I understood that it had this feature. But I found problems with it. I still look for something to set up the feature, but I couldn't found it yet. But it says that has Caller Id.Good luck!

Yes! Touching ANY button on the handsets lights up the keys... Makes it quite easy to place calls in the dark.

Not sure why that would be mentioned...caller ID only displays on the base. Great phone...good clarity and features!

Yes, it has a Hi/Lo/Off Ringer Settings switch on the side but the light does still flash when a call comes in.

Yes, the screen lights up when a call is recieved. If you are out shopping, when you come home you can see who called because the phone has caller ID. In addition, the keys are lit up, but can be turned on or off. In addition there is a light to show the volume setting. And there is a "caption" button that lights up (red) when you want to use this feature. In my opinion, and in my case, Linda, I considered this a very good investment.

Yes there is a green light next to each line that blinks when ringing stays solid when call is picked up.

Yes it has a light indicator and also shows it on the screen that there is a new voicemail

That depends on the plan you subscribe to with your service provider. We have that plan and this phone shows caller ID and works with call waiting.

Yes, a blinking red light. But that light will stay on forever unless you "clear" the call manually on the machine itself (which is a chore if you get a lot of robocalls that you prefer to ignore).

No it does not. It only tells who or the number if caller is not in contacts
