Customer Reviews

Excellent Phone
Panasonic definitely makes good phone, my last Panasonic lasted me 10 years of constant abuse (dropping on marble floors), after my current Uniden (lasted less than a year) started having all sorts of problems I decided to go back to Panasonic again, I've been using this phone for a while and I find it a really nice phone laden with bunch of useful features:

+ No static or any kind of interference with WiFi, clear and crisp voice every-time.
+ Hand set is small (it looks larger in amazon pictures)
+ Talking caller ID and selectable ring tones (7 provided) are really nice features, caller ID will pick the name of the caller from your phone book if you have already saved it, if that is not available it will spell out the name returned from the network.
+ Slow talk feature works great, it really reduces the talking speed of the caller making the voice more discernible
+ Long battery life and charges quickly.
+ Easy to navigate menu
+ Loud speaker phone
+ Easy VoiceMail access (I can directly access my Vonage voice mail), this phone will even alert me of a new voice mail from my vonage service.
+ This phone can save pin numbers and other such data and input this information as and when you require in a call, this makes life so much easier
+ Answering machine is simple to operate and stores upto 18 minutes of messages
+ Decent phone book of upto 50 numbers (easy to save and retrieve numbers)
+ Large and bright display.
+ Phone is decently prices considering all the features it have especially the fact that it is expandable to 4 sets.

This phone is an absolute buy and will be more than suffice for all your home phone needs. I especially find that this phone is fully compatible with the extra features provided by Vonage, of-course this phone should work equally well with a fixed line phone network too.

Cordless phone review
The reception and functionality is good. I like the talking caller ID feature. You don't have to run to the phone to see who is calling. Also the caller ID ring tones is beneficial as well. One thing that I don't like is the answering machine. It records hang ups which is annoying. It also doesn't tell you that there is a listened message on the phone. Our older answering machine would have a blinking red light for messages and then a solid red light if there is a message that has been listened to, but hasen't been erased.

This digital answering machine lets you know that there is a message to hear with a blinking light. However, it goes off after you listen to it. If the message was listened by the unintended party and you want to leave it there for someone else to listen to, you have to tell the other person that there is a message, because the light is off and there is no way of knowing that the message is there unless to hit play. I think we will turn this answering machine off and connect back our older answering machine.

Great phone
This phone replaced a much older Panasonic 900 MHz digital phone. We loved that phone, but this one is just great. The integrated answering machine eliminated a lot of clutter. The voice quality is excellent. However, the "enhanced voice" feature was awful in my experience; avoid it. Also, I haven't found a way to get it to automatically answer when I pick the handset out of the cradle.
