Default Desperately seeking a mobile phone extension sound.

I live in a big house without a fixed land line.

I have a mobile phone that I don't always carry in the house (too
heavy).

Is there a cradle into which I can insert the mobile phone that will
amplify the ring tone all over the house (like a land-line one)?

It's a Samsung A30

165 grams is 'too heavy' ??

there are cordless handsets that can connect to a cellphone via
bluetooth and act s an extension, which you can place in a more
convenient location.

You could put handsets all over the house.

I don't know what their fascination is with Bluetooth for interconnect.
You'd need Class 1 on everything to make a decent system out of it.
(And they're probably not going to tell you what Class it is.)
It would suck about as bad as Wifi. If a lower frequency was available
for unlicensed radio usage, there would be better wall penetration.

because it's the only thing that would work.

the cordless phone acts as a glorified headset to the cellphone.

it's nothing new. such products have been around for *years*.

I think someone else may have touched on it, but when I was buying my
current 4 handset Panasonic house phone, I saw some that had options to
link the phone to your cell phone. Cell phone calls coming in would go
to the base set and ring all phones and you could answer the cell via
these handsets.

I'm not sure mine wound up being one of those, but it interested me as
my sister has her son living with her and he's on his phone 24/7 it
seems like. I though it might be interesting for him to have that so he
could just drop the phone by the base on his way in from work and the
house would be wired.

I use one of those. it can handle up to 2 cell phones with Bluetooth,
and works fine without a home phone line. Bluetooth range doesn't matter
since that connection is just between phones and the base. All handsets
(mine came with 5) will ring unless silenced.

I carry an A50 in a pocket designed for a mobile phone in my shorts
and I never notice it to be heavy. The shorts I wear are designed
generally for tradies (or anyone else who like to fill up lots of
pockets with things).

If you are specifically looking for a cradle, have you tried any of
the "hundreds" of kiosks you see in large shopping centres?

Gravity is reduced outside your house? You should investigate that ...
