Too bad we didn't buy them sooner!

Excellent phones! They're easy to type, easy to read, and have a great narrator. I can go outside to my mailbox during a call. I like the feel and weight of the phone. The sound quality is wonderful. These are quality phones at a reasonable price.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Great phones. Would buy again.

I've been waiting to review this phone for over a year. I have absolutely no complaints. I just needed a regular phone at home. My only real requirements were two phones and an optional speaker. After 13 months they are like new. The charge lasts a very long time (we don't want to charge it often). The clarity is perfect and nobody can hear me on this phone. Definitely recommend.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other options

Great set at a great price.

I needed to replace my old 5 phone system and got lucky with AT&T. I've only had it connected for about a week, so I can't comment on its durability, but so far I'm really enjoying it. I had good coverage in my 2800 sq. ft. m and in the garage, and I really like the ringtone. I found it cheaper to buy a two-handset system ($39) and just add more handsets for $14 each. compared to buying a larger phone system (I like the flexibility of only getting what you need, I only needed 4 for example). I…

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • will add later

Good device for my needs

I had to replace the old model with just one extra handset and no longer need an answering machine as I have voicemail with my ISP. It was also in the colors I preferred. So far I've been very happy with this set. It's easy to install and also customize date/time, language, home region code etc with what I wanted to customize. There were also no problems with speech intelligibility. I know someone mentioned that the time and day didn't show up when a call was logged into caller id. You need to…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Some cons

Flat mug for phone

I've been using it for less than a month. Works well. The overall small size of this phone and its base is okay; However, the seat for the earpiece is very shallow, so it can fall out with the slightest movement or require precision when inserting. Phone call removal is slower than another brand I've used. The main reason I bought this phone was the greater nature of the caller ID; a slightly larger font helps my husband a bit, but the area is not as big as expected. I'd happily ditch huge…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Read the fine print... This phone doesn't have voicemail!

Read the fine print… This phone doesn't have voicemail! Yes, my fault, but I had no idea that a modern phone could not have a voicemail feature, and somehow I just didn't see it because I was concentrating on other features, such as voicemail. B. the possibility of wall mounting. (which it is)...it says "Voicemail features require a subscription to your phone service provider." Something like "No Voicemail" should be capitalized in the main headline because it's so important and so unexpected…

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Infinitely slow

Works well, less EMF (auto eco mode)

I needed to replace my very old phone from before December 6th. I'm happy because this AT&T phone automatically works in Eco mode, which isn't even mentioned in the product description. When the handset is close to the base unit, the power output from both units is automatically reduced. Right now it's about 25 feet from base and still on economy mode. I put off buying a Dect 6 phone for years because I didn't want high EMI 24/7. I'm happy with the features of this phone (caller ID memory…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Ordinary cordless telephone

As I said, a decent cordless phone. Positive aspects: 1. Nice design, attractive and quite ergonomic.2. Backlit keyboard with large numbers, intuitive operation.3. Easy navigation through the menu.4. Good storage - typical 50 phone numbers, 9 speed dials. Directory entries/editing can be done globally from any phone.5. Sufficiently good speakers, good adjustment range.6. Pretty good battery life in use.7. Silent button for call suppression, intercom/conference capability with additional phones,

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive
