Anyone able to recommend a cordless telephone for home?

I realise these are a dying animal now as we all have mobiles, but I still like to have a landline.
Our cordless Panasonic needs replacing, but in the past I've struggled to get one I like that has the features I need..

Decent ring tones
Backlit screen
Loud speaker phone
Caller ID
Button on base station to make handset ring (when you can't find the handset)

Any suggestions please?

BT Premium with call blocker.
I’ve had mine nearly 2 years now. Absolutely zero spam calls and linked to my mobile through Bluetooth so I can answer calls on that if it’s nearer.

Panasonic or BT.

Generally have chosen the Panasonic ones with "big buttons" as they are much easier to use, and not stuffed with pointless complicated features. It's a telephone!

Our last Panasonic lasted about a decade smile
It was recently replaced with a Gigaset (formally Siemens) that met a similar list of requirements biggrin
