Review on πŸ“ž AT&T (1740WH) Digital Answering System with Date and Time Stamp, in White by Dave Moody

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good replacement for an old car.

I've been using an old GE answering machine for a very long time, but the 9V backup batteries are draining too quickly, leading me to believe that some of the internal components were probably just outdated. work properly/more efficiently. After looking at several possible replacement devices, I settled on this one because its features are most reminiscent of my old one, particularly the remote commands that allow you to call and check your messages from other locations. It's inexpensive and comes with the added bonus of a battery-free memory backup system. If my old battery dies, I lose all saved messages and prompts in the event of a power outage. Sound Quality"OK". no better or worse than my old one. There is actually a lot you can do to make your outgoing message sound better, for example by trying to pick up the message from a few different positions with your mouth at different distances/angles from the top of the device where the internal microphone is located . .Good basic recording machine, very easy to set up/use, definitely worth the money.
