Good phone, reasonable price

Our landline phone was used very little so we wanted to try a wireless device that would connect to our mobile phones via Bluetooth. It meets all requirements. Connects easily to both phones (Spring HTC TouchPro2 and Android OptimusV), doesn't interfere with my Wi-Fi network, and has a number of useful features (push-to-talk and intercom; customizable ringtones depending on which phone the Call is received from the ability to "tag" any phone, digital answering machine). Phones are comfortable…

Pros
  • DECT 6.0 digital technology
Cons
  • Long wait

This is indeed a DS6401

This is a Vtech DS6401 extension phone, the only one that Vtech makes for use with the DS6421 system.

Pros
  • Extension phone only - requires DS6421 or DS6422 to work
Cons
  • Minor

All in all a good product

I was a bit skeptical about purchasing VTech given how poorly made their products were in the years following their launch in the US. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the call. The functions are mostly very easy to use and intuitive. This phone is probably very suitable for people with hearing impairments as the preset ringer levels are very loud. Suffice to say I was startled when the phone rang the first time and I didn't expect it to be so loud. I love how, once you've created a…

Excellent Landline and Cellular Phones

Many of us have a landline and cellphone in our home. When I'm at home, my cell phone is plugged into a charging station. If the doorbell rings, I might be in another part of the house and need to run. So I searched and found a phone system that would allow you to take calls from BOTH your landline and cell phone anywhere you have a phone. My search only found 2 brands that offer a phone system with these features: AT&T or Vtech. Further investigation revealed that Vtech actually makes these…
