Review on πŸ“ž VTech CS6529-4B DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone Set - 4 Handsets with Answering System, Caller ID, Expandable up to 5, Wall-Mountable - Blue/Green/Red/Silver by Cindy Martinez

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The font is too small; can't call phones; Contrast is hard to see

I had a Panasonic with large lettering and the ability to name phones. Wanted to try Vtech which makes ATT phones and it got good reviews - can't compare to Panasonic. Vtech not only has a small font, but it is also not bold and difficult to read due to poor contrast brightness. I had to go to their website for the full user manual and saw that the same 4 phone multicolor set was only $44 on the vtech website, but I paid $71 on Revain. The main problem is that the font size is very small and not even bold. I am returning this set and ordering another Panasonic set. Naming the handset is important regardless of the color, because who remembers what color suits each room - on my Panasonic I called it "Kitchen", "Bedroom" etc. CONTRAST and brightness are very poor, very difficult to read even up close. It may seem insignificant but important to me so return this set and order Panasonic again. Vtech color phones are great, I wish Panasonic would do the same, but other features take precedence over colour.
