Having bought the separate phone (W56H) and in a bundle with a W60B (H for Handset, B for base), I would recommend NetXL and LiGO to be sure of a UK plug. (This phone is now a little older than newer models, but in terms of functionality, I don't think it's missing anything important. It feels mid-high range in quality and it still gets sold with newer base stations e.g. W70B and hence still continues (at this time) to get firmware updates to work with those. When I recently purchased this phone, this one was up-to-date already :) ) It's got a few wallpapers, ways to display the time, few ringtones to choose from, looks nice and modern. Button tone and backlight are configurable etc. It's quite expensive as handhelds go, but hopefully means it will last a LONG time. It does seem to have decent battery life when it's taken off its charger stand for a couple of weeks. The phone's charger stand can also go in a USB slot. I have to say, for the average person, setting up these phones PROPERLY may be a bit difficult. I'm a linux veteran of 15 years, 25 years of Windows and there are many settings on the server for the base station that I would just never use or aren't fully sure what they do. It's also a VERY GOOD thing that they offer so much customisation and access to settings in a modern age where everything is dumbed down and totally unhelpful to troubleshoot. Short of a massive writeup in an desertcart review, I would give my recommendations for a standard UK household who's interested in switching to a VOIP phone. We have two of these phones (one upstairs, one down) and a W60B base station, and linked them to the one VOIP account to ring at the same time. * We currently have a subscription with YAY. They only offer a couple of tiers, but their basic one gives you 100 minutes free to landline and mobiles and you can top credit up. They also have encryption to and from them (not the rest of the way obviously), so you can select TLS-SIP etc but you must set it up yourself with the instructions on their site. Call rates are always better than landline but there may be more appropriate providers for your usecase. Look around. * We have all devices in the house set to fixed LAN IPs. At the very least, you should have your voip's base station fixed (so it doesn't change if anything gets rebooted). That chosen IP in a web browser will give you access to change settings. I think you can make most necessary changes using the phone itself (especially if your setup has an ATA "adapter"), but firmware updates and making house-wide (multiple phones at once) changes would be terribly boring going phone to phone without a centralised management you get in the base station. *For updates, I think the only way is to download the rom from Yealink's site, upload the rom to the base station and then selecti Firmware Update with the phone - I would always recommend updating internet-facing devices or devices that might get important fixes. I was looking for an alternative for this phone, I might go something with a camera/viewscreen to make video calls, but then that's VERY gimmicky when you've got your mobile (which could use a related app), or your desktop/laptop etc with a separate (turnoffable) webcam which will also have a better quality fps and resolution, letting you sit comfortably in your chair rather than straining over a phone lol Review: Great Handset - Bought this to supplement an existing installation. Easy to register with the base and worked perfectly first time. Good battery capacity during calls. Can now make a call out while an incoming call is present on the other handset (BT network) or receive two calls on the same line and answer on one handset by toggling calls (Call waiting) or answer on the second handset. Good bright display. ## Features - Form factor: Bar - 2.4 "colour display with intuitive user interface and backlight, 4 way navigation key, Up to 5 SIP accounts - Up to 4 simultaneous external calls, LDAP phonebook Silent, DND, call waiting, Hold a call and forward - Indoor range: 20m - 50m depending on conditions, Range outdoor: 300m in optimal conditions, Full duplex speakerphone, Table or wall mounting - Headset plug (3.5 mm), 30 hours talk time up to 400 hours standby, Codecs G.711, G.723, G.726, G.729, G.722, lb, TLS, SRTP ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01FD4YDFU | | Best Sellers Rank | 3,880 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 4 in VoIP & Skype Phones | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Item model number | YEA-W56H | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Yealink | | Product Dimensions | 5.59 x 2.03 x 15.24 cm; 272.16 g | ## Product Details - **Answering system type:** Digital - **Brand:** Yealink - **Colour:** black, white, silver - **Dialler type:** Single Keypad - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 5.6 x 2 x 15.2 centimetres - **Item weight:** 272 g - **Material:** Plastic - **Number of batteries:** 2 AA batteries required.

If you buy it in Europe it'll have the 2 pin plug. **Q: Anyone know what the password is to link to these handsets to the BT base station?** A: I had the same issue. BT supply their version of the handsets with proprietary passwords. If you want to pair another handset give BT's helpdesk a call and they will give you the code you need. **Q: Can we use BT handsets extension phones with this phone ie are they compatible?** A: Yes just add to the base **Q: How can you extend the number of times the phone rings? Thanks.** A: You configure in the base station or in the phone server ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ring ring ring ring ring (no banana) *by T***R on 1 November 2023* Seems a lot of reviews are from people who didn't get the right plug attachment in the box, but they should really mention whom they bought it from so they can name-and-shame!

Easy to register with the base and worked perfectly first time. Good battery capacity during calls. Can now make a call out while an incoming call is present on the other handset (BT network) or receive two calls on the same line and answer on one handset by toggling calls (Call waiting) or answer on the second handset. Good bright display. ### ⭐ Doesn’t work without additional purchase of a base unit *by A***N on 7 June 2025* Probably a great phone but doesn’t work without a base which you have to get in addition to this phone. Nowhere does it say that on this advert and the returns process is a pain. Avoid. ## Frequently Bought Together - Yealink YEA-W56H HD DECT Expansion Handset for Cordless VoIP Phone and Device - Yealink W70B Phone Base Station - Yealink T54W IP Phone, 16 VoIP Accounts. 4.3-Inch Color Display. 802.11ac Wi-Fi, 802.3af PoE, Power Adapter Not Included (SIP-T54W) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/56699631-w56h-wireless-ip-dect-handset](https://www.desertcart.at/products/56699631-w56h-wireless-ip-dect-handset) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
