Editors Review
The SPA525G is an executive desk phone with a multitude of neat features. The phone itself can pair with a mobile device via Bluetooth, meaning that you can choose to make or receive calls via either device. Syncing the phone with your Google Address Book is easily done, and means that any new contact added to your mobile phone is automatically synced to the Cisco device. Small gripes are that the phone doesn't have a cord tidy (though the receiver makes a nice click when returned), and Google Sync imports all contacts, even if there is no number associated with the individual.
