The Siemens Gigaset S685IP is an evolution of the S675IP and is the first S6xx series to officially launch in the UK.

The features are the same as the S675IP, but it has the additional benefits of:

- Bluetooth, supporting headset and COM profiles for connection to headsets and a PC for contact and file synchronisation.
- 128x160 pixel 65K screen (not sure if the S675 has this?)

Notable Improvements over the S450IP are:

- Louder volume on both speaker phone and earpiece
- Louder ring tone volume
- bluetooth on each handset
- built in answerphone. 30-35 minutes max recording time, approx 18-20 minutes recording on "High Quality" mode
- HDSP (High Definition 8KHz wideband audio support)
