Fanvil Opus Codec Support in X4G and X5S Phones
-
Looking at testing out some lower cost phones than we normally use. VitalPBX (that we use) supports Fanvil and they have some nice looking units available on Amazon. Specifically for us the Fanvil X4G and Fanvil X5S look to be very interesting.
I know that the Fanvil X6 has Opus support, but that unit is too bulky (and expensive) for where we are looking to deploy at this time.
Give the prices, I'm pretty sure that it is the X5S that we are really interested in.
The Fanvil website really has no specs on the phones, so there is very little way to get technical information prior to purchase.

Also would like to know... the QR Code for Mobile management is okay, but is there a way to access the device's interface from a normal web browser? Managing phones from a mobile phone isn't an option outside of a home deployment.

@scottalanmiller I would assume it has to support standard web browsers accessing the phone via IP address and that the "QR Code" is just a feature they chose to advertise.
For under $70 it would be a cheap and simple device to test in the office.

That's my hope.

Yeah, definitely thinking about just ordering one. An extra phone is never a bad thing.

This is Jason from Fanvil
Currently, X4G doesn't support Opus, but X5S, X6, X7C, X7, X210 all of them support Opus.

@Jason-Liu : Hi Jason, thanks for replying here! Do the phones provide a standard web interface for configuration/management or is one limited to using the mobile app?

The X5S looks pretty impressive for just $68 on Amazon. No much need for the cheaper X4G as the price is so close.

The Fanvil phones have been on my list of things to buy and test for more than a year now.
Just no time.

Hi, Manxam, yes, you can log in web GUI via browsers to manage and configure phones -
