does this Bluetooth announce name or just number

No name just number. Also note the on off switch of this ear piece is very fragile (breaks off) and they (Motorola) do not stand behind their product as they consider it physical damage.

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

It will do names that are programed in your phone. if the names are not there it speaks the number.

When you play the messages back, it states the date and time. I don't believe it shows the name but when a call comes in it will say the persons, company, business name but you usually can't tell who they are saying.

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.

IF the caller's name is in your directory. It only announces numbers otherwise. It will announce a listed caller just like you have it in your directory. ie: Call from Tom Smith, or Call from "Insurance" (if that is how the number is programed into your telephone.

Yes, the radio completely mutes when receiving a call and the ringer comes through the speakers. If your phone is compatible with Kenwood's address book download feature, then it will show caller ID, otherwise it will show the callers number. It is also possible to program up to 6 frequently called numbers to the radio's preset buttons for easy dialing, simply press the phone button to switch to bluetooth mode, then press the desired preset button to call the number programmed to it.

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.

I think your name will only show up if they have your number programmed into their directory. You can't make it show up, it's up to them to save your number into their own directory and put your name with it, then it will show up on their phone.

No, it will just display what ever you have named your phone. Mine says John's IPhone.

Doretha - The DS6421-3 will display the name and number, providing the network sends that information. Thanks!

Mine does show who is calling. You may want to check with your phone company. I have trouble connecting new hand sets. I wish I went with a Panasonic:(

Mine does not announce at all but it is supposed to, I use this phone at my business and will go back to Panasonic phones when this dies as the phones are not as good as the Panasonic phones I have had before.

Yes, it does. Out of the box it will read the phone number, but you can connect with your PC and manually input numbers. So, for example, I have put the numbers of my "favorites" into my headset and it tells me the callers name now for all of those. However, it will not just extract this information from your phone's address book automatically.

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.

The name if it is in your phone book. It will announce the number if it is not attached to your phone book.
