does this bluetooth call out the name and or number of person calling?

It depends on the phone. I would not recommend this product. It was replaced by the manufacturer and then upgraded. It didn't last at anytime.

No, It will only tell you the phone that the call is on (you can pair more than 1 phone to it). for example: "Call on Phone One"It only does caller ID for Text Messages.

with my phone I can hear the name through the phone, but not through the headset. It rings in the headset, but the message as to who is calling comes through the phone.

not that I am aware of, but it's the best bluetooth I've ever had voice activation etc you can answer or ignore a call I believe it gives you the number so you can make that choice. I have to order my third one for a family member this week. good luck

Yes it does announce the caller and the announcement is pretty clear. But if you have friends with the non traditional names like I do, then the names sound a bit off half the time. Other than that, the feature is all good. You can turn off the announcement if you want, too.

Yes, it does, if the callers carrier supports it. Sometimes here in Texas, it will just say "Texas caller" without the name. It all depends. Cell companies give you the option as to what your caller ID is. Some higher models of Panasonic have talking caller ID, which calls out the name or number of the party calling. This is a great phone though.

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.

It only gives the phone number of the caller. It does not give the caller by name.

it says callers name if you have a name attached to the number or the number if you do not have a name attached to it

It does operates by voice activated calling. It has notified me by phone number not person's name.

No, it only announces the caller's phone number. Still a great deal for the price. I have two.

Mike, I am notified of incoming call (either name or number depending on entry in my contacts list. That said, I am not sure if that is a function of the phone (iPhone) or the Jawbone. It certainly accommodates that functionality if available on your phone. Just by way of another example, I have voice dialing - somehow the Jawbone interacts with Siri (iPhone) and I tell Siri who I want to call. Hope this helps. Scott

Yes. You can make the ring tone from a "cell call" the same one you use on your cell so you can tell the difference and know the source of the call when your phone rings. Once you set up the bluetooth connection, anytime your cell phone is close enough, the landline will automatically pick up the call. Also, all the contacts from the cell were downloaded to the landline phone so it announces who is calling based on recognition of the source number.

It shows the number of who is calling unless you have the person in your directory. If the person is in your directory, it tells you the name. Of course I have Magic Jack so if you have regular telephone service the name may come up, but I only see the number.

No, it doesn't. As applicable, display shows incoming" phone# and caller's name" or "unavailable" or "private caller".

It does not tell you who is calling, nor is there a caller ID on this device. I bought it for the "Bose" quality sound, but I have heard Platronics works just as well with caller ID, with a much cheaper price tag to boot.

Sorry i did not amswer sooner.Yes, this headset announces the caller new name. It uploads your contact list and announces the correct name. it may also announces the name display provided by the Telco if there is no contact match. It works really well.
