📞 Panasonic Cordless Phone Handset Accessory Compatible with TGF540/570/TG785 Series - KX-TGFA51B, Black: Enhance Your Phone with This Versatile Accessory Review

I replaced an old GE speakerphone with this model in my home office and am very pleased. It has all the features I wanted and a few features I wasn't aware of (handsfree calling on any handset, talking caller ID, and handset programming to name a few). It's lightweight but well made, the display is easy to read, the volume is good, the menu options are intuitive, and it's surprisingly easy to set up and program. The call blocking feature is the bomb - about an hour after installing it, I…

I still have a landline for many reasons. This phone will NOT reliably receive messages, record VMs, or respond to changes. For example, if you enter a local phone number with an area code, the phone number will be prefixed with a "1" whether required or not. Some people can't leave VM messages and at least one person has complained that I didn't record voicemail - I did - despite the phone insisting that I contact my carrier to do so. Perhaps these problems could be remedied if the manual…

Sometimes the simplest things seem to get overlooked. It's a cute little phone system and the call blocking feature is a godsend. However, you have overlooked one of the most important features. When messages are being recorded, the play/stop button only has a small flashing light - barely visible - and there's no visual indication of how many messages you have until you press the button to play the messages. The information is then displayed on the screen, which is great. However, if you…

We bought this unit because in our existing four phone Panasonic KX-TGF540 system a phone headset port failed and a base station stopped charging after several years. We used a store bought phone to replace a phone with a faulty headset port in the base unit and a store bought base to replace a faulty base (which appears to have failed because we unknowingly spilled some liquid on it that didn't cleaned). Both devices have been working flawlessly for a few weeks. We removed the faulty base unit

I've had this phone for over a month and I'm very happy with it. As someone not normally familiar with multifunctional devices, figuring out the different functions was easy enough for me. And yes, it has a mute function and a headphone jack. Some people who responded in the Consumer Questions section and in the reviews said they weren't; You are wrong. Tips: (1) Mute appears only when you press the talk button. After you click talk, the word mute will appear on the small screen above the talk…

I have an extra wearable and charger to use as a second floor. After a few tries it connected to the base unit, which I expected to do without any issues as it's listed as a device accessory if you need an extra portable phone. The phone looks and works exactly the same as the phone that came with the base station, except that the power contacts on the phone base are different from those on the base station, so each phone connects to its own charging cradle. Seems kinda weird. I guess it…
