Uniden TRU8865-2 5.8 GHz Digital Expandable Cordless Speakerphone with Caller ID Review

Uniden TRU8865-2 5.8 GHz Digital Expandable Cordless Speakerphone with Caller ID
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I work from home about 3 weeks per month and I needed a great phone. Over the past 1.5 years I've purchased more then 6 base + cordless units looking for the right one from every major phone manufacture (from Panasonic, Sony to Nortel), finally I found it in the Uniden TRU 8865. The engineers must have read my mind. In the past my perception of Uniden has not been so good, and I thought this purchase was a very risky one to take. However the quality of the Uniden phone build, and the voice quality is top notch. But that's just the beginning, after blowing thru so many units from phone manufactures I had an extensive list of what I wanted, and not one had met my feature - functions critera, this phone does. First off it's a snap to setup, even though it does use some soft menu functions they are simplistic, well organized and the soft menu is very fast, real time, no delays. All normal phone functions are accesable thru buttons on the phone (base andcordless)- So shuffling thru the softmenu is rarely needed except for the phonebook (There are other great features, but I seldom use them). Speakerphone on the base is one of the best, not perfect compared to a business phone, but it's the best you'll find on the consumer market. By picking up the cordless itautomatically shuts the speaker down and it's seamless to the cordless and no clicking or poping for the other party. You can put your base speaker phone call on Hold or Mute with a touch of a button. The cordless phone has a headset feature, I used it with the Uniden headphones (which are great by the way) and the cordless phone has speaker phone on it also, on the back side. The speaker is great, however the mic quality is poor. I've never found one that was good. You can take cordless phone calls and transfer back to the base for speaker phone, seamless. When plugging in the Uniden headphones to a live call on the cordless it does "Chirp" to the customer, get around this by hitting the mute on the phone, upper left button. Headset only usuable on cordless unit. I didn't test the range, but it = does not interfere = with my WI-FI b+g. Any Button Answering and also you can mute the incoming call ringing for a do not disturb.
Only Minus, phone did not set time and date by incoming call using caller ID, first phone I found in a long time you had to manually set your time and data, however you only need to this with one phone and it updates the entire system. You can transfer phone books between cordless and base, which is a new twist, and it's darn handy. Cordless units can be used (direct)for a conversation without using the phone line. Take them to the mall!
Great phone, you won't be dissapointed unless you have some feature I've not yet needed., I've been waiting years for a robust feature set that does not command soft-menu gymnastics and I've found it in the Uniden TRU 88 Series. Great job Uniden.

Panasonic KX-TG5433M 5.8 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Answering System and Three Handsets Review

Panasonic KX-TG5433M 5.8 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Answering System and Three Handsets
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the third time I have bought a phone system with one base and multiple handsets, and this is the best one I have used so far.The reasons range from trivial (I like the sounds of the ring tones), to significant (you can use multiple handsets at once).

The two most important features for me before purchase were:

1) 5.8 Ghz spread spectrum.My old phone was a 2.4 Ghz, and it would occasionally interfere with my wireless computer network.It was very annoying.My moving to a phone that uses a different frequency range, the problem is completely avoided.

2) The ability to use multiple handsets at the same time.Another phone I previously had would not let two handsets talk in the same conversation at the same time.This was just miserable.This phone lets you do this without any problems.

After purchase, I found that it had some other amazing features:

1) Each phone has a unique ID, and you can conference between the handsets.With the range this phone has, my wife and I now carry them around outside (we have a 3 acre yard) and use them to talk to each other.

2) The phone has an AMAZING speakerphone capability on each handset!This was not on my radar at all, but it is really useful.

3) When playing back messages it has recorded, it shows you the caller ID entry for the message.Really nice touch.

4) While I don't know much about it yet, I can apparently keep the numbers in the phone's phonebook in sync with those stored in Outlook in my computer.I can also download new ringtones, but that's not so importent to me.More info on this is available at www.openlcr.com.

The ONLY annoying thing about this phone is that when you answer a call on one handset, the other two handsets register it as a 'missed call' in the caller ID list.I considered rating it 4 stars for this, but once you get used to it, the rest of the features more than make up for it.

Avaya Definity 6408D Telephone Gray Review

Avaya Definity 6408D Telephone Gray
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
From reading some of the reviews I notice that some of you don't realize that a digital phone is not the same type of phone that you use at home an will NOT work on an analog signal which is what you have at home.Actually, a digital phone is not a phone at all but is in fact, a terminal which is programed via a computer. Digital phones operate exclusively with the use of a phone system such as IP-Office, Definity, etc. These types of systems use a digital signal to translate voice and data into legible information at a much faster pace as a stream of information running in a straight line.Analog data is basically an undulating sound wave, moving up and down and is much slower.A digital phone won't work in an analog environment and an analog phone won't work in a digital environment. They don't speak the same language.A phone system will typically have special analog cards as part of the system in order for faxes and modems to work in your office; these types of devices are almost always analog. The 6408-D (the "D" stands for digital) is a reliable, well built, user friendly, workhorse and is a great phone for any office using a digital voice/data system only. It is not a suitable phone for home use or even many small offices that typically have only a few telephone lines and will not work there.For that you will need a POT (plain ole telephone) that uses a POTS (plain ole telephone signal) yes, POTS means exactly that... I hope this mini phone lesson clears up some of the confusion.

Motorola MD71 5.8 GHz Cordless Accessory Handset for MD700 Series Phones Review

Motorola MD71 5.8 GHz Cordless Accessory Handset for MD700 Series Phones
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As with the MD751 (required to use this expansion phone), this phone offers superior sound quality.In my opinion Panasonic is the best when it comes to sound quality, but this was a close second and was a vast improvement over all AT&T, VTech and GE phones I tried.The features are excellent, including expandability, handsfree/speakerphone, and all the other standard bells and whistles for a top of the line phone.The one feature that seems unique to Motorola is the Area Code Format feature.Among other things, this means that when I get a call from a long-distance area code, it either knows to add a 1 at the beginning or allows me to change the format to do so to facilitate calling back that number without needing to key it in manually.I have not found this on any other phone and it is a great feature.The only problem I have is that there is a lack of connectivity between the expansion units and the base units.Each phone is more or less designed to work on its own, so it is necessary to manually delete caller ID logs from each phone and to store auto-dial and Area Code Format preferences separately as well.Still, this is a great buy even at the high price.

When you get the phone, check to see if it came with a Sanik battery.If so, plan on replacing it ASAP... my suggestion would be a Energizer ER-P510.If you don't, you will experience the static that many reviewers have mentioned, followed by run-down after 30 min of talking, followed by death at about 1 year.As shipped, I should probably rate this phone lower, but if it shipped with a good battery I would rate it 5-stars.

Uniden DCT 648-2 2.4 GHz Expandable Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets, Answering System, and Caller ID Review

Uniden DCT 648-2 2.4 GHz Expandable Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets, Answering System, and Caller ID
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Uniden DCT648-3HS
Pros
* Bright easily read display
* Phone is small and fits in hand nicely
* Message notification light on handset and blinking led on base
* Messages can be accessed on any handset as well as base
* Handsets can be named (example: bedroom, living room, etc.)
* Speakerphone in handset and base
* When using the speakerphone on handset and base the other caller couldn't tell that Iwas using a speakerphone
* Very good volume on handset, and equally as good using thespeakerphones on both handset and base
* Speed dial numbers can be assigned to numbers 1 thru 0 on the keypad
* Battery condition icon
* DirectLink Mode (a pair of handsets can work like walkie talkies away from the base unit)
* Room Monitor (one phone can call another and the second phone will turn on the speakerphone allowing you to listen in that room)
* Different ringers can be assigned to a phone number in the directory, so when that particular person calls that melody or ringer will sound.
Cons
* I was frequently getting a tinny sound coming from the handset.Also was hearing my voice in earpiece on the handset which is quite annoying.
* In the speakerphone mode on the handset the sound is constantly getting low then comes back.
* Only a 2 digit pin code for accessing messages (I wish phone manufacturers was use at a minimum, 3 digits.It wouldn't take much for somebody to guess a two digit number)
Conclusion
Uniden seems to have done their homework when designing their new 2.4GHz phones, but the issues with the handset and speakerphone detract from an otherwise excellent phone in my opinion.
Other Uniden phones that I've tested in the past have never had the issue with the tinny sound.I'm not sure if this tinny sound and the problems with the fading sound from the handset speaker phone are some how related.I originally thought that extra noise in my home office were causing the handset speakerphone fading, but when I went into another room that was quiet it still faded.I then thought that maybe the handset I was using was bad but I checked the other two the system came with and they also faded when using the speakerphone.Whether or not you can live with these shortcomings is up to the individual, but obviously sound is the most important aspect of a phone.If a phone cannot deliver good sound then all of the other extra's it comes with are pretty much useless.
So, can I live with the sound problems!I just don't know at this point.They are great phones..................but!!!!!

AT&T 5840 5.8 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Speakerphone with Digital Answering System Review

AT&T 5840 5.8 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Speakerphone with Digital Answering System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
BOTTOM LINE:You've probably already discovered the lack of full-featured consumer-level cordless phones out there, especially in the 5.8 GHz category and that you really have to move into the SOHO dual-line systems and spend a good deal more to get a full-featured phone.But the bottom line is if you are looking for a full featured, single line, consumer level cordless phone w/ an answering machine built in, this is it - it's not perfect, but you don't have many other options in this price range.
THE ALSO-RANS:Panasonic KX-TG2593 - feature-packed, but 2.4 GHz and bad quality reviews (just releasing 5.8 GHz line - probably will have same quality issues).Siemens 4215 - great form factor and feature-packed, but 2.4 GHz, no headphone jack, no base functionality and lukewarm quality reviews (pricier SL3501 and 8800 lines have headphone jack but are 2.4 GHz).CIDCO's 2.4 GHz D271's - almost perfect feature set but no answering machine and not in same price range (only marketed through yourlocal Bell company so you're not going to find a deal).
AT&T phones are not made by AT&T - they are designed and marketed by the VTech (maker of VTech phones like the 5831) subsidiary Advanced American Telephones under a licensing agreement with AT&T.My guess is AAT was a Ma Bell spin-off years back that VTech acquired so you are probably still getting some of the quality you associate w/ AT&T.Enough trivia...on to the phone:
PROS:
-Call quality/construction - can't overemphasize this (base sits right by my computer setup and still have great call quality)
-Full-duplex speakerphone:you can hear and be heard at same time (an uncommon feature on consumer speakerphones)
-LCD/Phone Book on base
-3 different mailboxes for different family members
CONS:
-No Speed dial:No one number/one touch speed dial from either base or handset - they really dropped the ball on this one.However, dialing from phone book takes as few as 3 button pushes.
-15 minutes answering machine record time seems pretty low (all of Siemens' lines have 30-45 minutes)
OTHER ISSUES:
-Message waiting indicator flashes neon blue on both base and handset - a little much for me but some may like it
-Inability to share phone books between handsets is a neutral:small business may want the same phonebook on all handsets; family may want parents/kids to have separate phonebook
-Wi-Fi:phone transmits at 5.8 GHz base to handset but 2.4 GHz the other way.If you have Wi-Fi this may be an issue as 802.11(b) transmits at 2.4 GHz.Possible future migration of Wi-Fi standard to 802.11(g) at 5.8 GHz is less of an issue because that frequency apparently is less congested than 2.4 GHz.
Note:I actually purchased the 5830 (but tested 5840 also). If you need the digital answering machine (b/c you don't have local phone company voicemail) go with the 5840 but you won't get the talking caller ID or a keypad on the base that you get with the 5830 (see my review on the 5830).
The top contenders in this category each have something (different) missing.In this price range, go with the AT&T 5840 (or the 5830) and be done with it before you drive yourself crazy as I did.

Click Here to see more reviews about: ATandT 5840 5.8 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Speakerphone with Digital Answering System

Product Description:
This innovative cordless telephone from AT&T operates on the powerful 5.8 GHz frequency. Its classic design provides comfort and ease of use along with advanced features, including a three-mailbox digital answering system, adjustable sound settings, the ability to run up to six handsets (one included, five optional) with only one jack, and speakerphones in both the handset and base.
The dual-band (5.8 GHz/2.4 GHz) design allows the base unit to transmit with more power in the 5.8 GHz frequency band and with greater efficiency at 2.4 GHz. The phone's true duplex transmission keeps the incoming and outgoing signals from interfering with each other.
The LCDs on both the base station and the handset provide caller ID/call waiting information (provided you have a subscription to caller ID service through your local phone company). The 5840's expandability with up to five additional handsets eliminates the need to hard-wire multiple extensions throughout the home. One phone jack and one power outlet are all you need to connect the 5840 base station and handset, while each additional AT&T 5800 handset requires only a power outlet for its compact charger/cradle. Calls can be transferred from one handset to another.
The 5840's enhanced audio technology derives from advances in acoustic design that have improved the frequency response relative to conventional cordless phones. The Sound-Select feature offers four different audio settings: bass, mid, treble, and natural.
The handset receiver lights up with incoming calls and can also be set to vibrate. It stores 50 names and numbers and works with your caller ID service to remember the last 50 callers. A spare-battery charging system enables the telephone to work even in a power outage. Choose from eight ringer melodies. Use AT&T replacement battery 2401.
What's in the Box
Base unit, handset, battery, AC power supply/charger, telephone line cord, instructions, warranty information
Note: The AT&T 5840 is no longer being manufactured. You may want to consider purchasing the newer AT&T E5860 instead.

Panasonic KXTG4000B 2.4 GHz DSS 4-Line Cordless Phone with Caller ID and Voicemail Review

Panasonic KXTG4000B 2.4 GHz DSS 4-Line Cordless Phone with Caller ID and Voicemail
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this phone for my home office.I liked the ability to have access to all the lines (including my fax line) on one system.This system has excellent functionality based upon the attendant and call routing.It also has better range in our 4,500 sf house than the Siemens 2420 system, which only is only a two line phone (more later).This system has large programmable memory locations, intuitive interfaces on the extensions as well as the base station.
HOWEVER, the primary purpose for acquiring this phone was to use the base station as my primary office phone with the capability to roam throughout our three story house.As a base station, this system is severely lacking.Although the speaker phone is great, it has NO MUTE!If you participate in conference calls, you need a headset with a mute switch to have an offline discussion or even sneeze.Also, using two friends as guinea pigs, the sound quality was pitiful on two different units of this same model thinking it was a fluke. According to my unscientific testing, the sound quality of the cordless handsets was poor as well. Finally, the handsets are huge.While the antenna makes the range a little better, it is a large unit that makes me feel like I have a Motorola Brick phone next to my head.Ergonomics are not Panasonic's strong suit, but the lit keypad is nice for using in the dark (although I prefer doing other things than dialing someone while in the dark).
I tried these units in direct comparison to the Siemens 2420.I've never been a VTech fan and didn't even consider them.The Brother was too cumbersome so I excluded it too.So, based upon my personal, andtime consuming, experiences, I chose the Siemens because it had better sound and, of all things, a mute button for the base.The range of the Siemens compared to the Panasonic may not be great and I had to replace the NiMH with Li batteries, but taken as a whole I liked the Siemens better.
If Panasonic had put a mute button on the base of this system, I would have kept it in spite of the sound differences.Funny how one litte feature made my decision.

Product Description:
Give your small business or home the productivity-enhancing features of a business telephone system without the high price tag. The KX-TG4000B four-line cordless telephone system accommodates up to eight handsets, while the all-digital voice mail system with auto attendant can be occupied by up to four users simultaneously. And dual caller ID with call waiting lets you see who's calling on either line.
The KX-TG4000B base unit and each cordless handset communicate in both directions using 2.4 GHz frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) transmission. FHSS technology improves calling range and clarity, and eliminates crosstalk. Because it rapidly changes transmission frequencies within the 2.4 GHz bandwidth, this cordless system helps reduce the possibility of eavesdropping.
The KX-TG4000B operates via cordless transmissions, so no expensive (and messy) wiring or installation is required. Simply hook up the base to your phone lines and plug it into an AC outlet. Then, set up the included KX-TGA400B handset in the desired location and plug in the recharging stand. Up to seven more optional KX-TGA400B handsets can be added to the system.
The convenient, reliable, all-digital voice mail includes many advanced features. The KX-TG4000B offers a general delivery mailbox on the base unit, plus up to eight personal mailboxes--one for each handset. Each user can record a personal greeting, and can access individual mailboxes from any system handset or an outside line. You can set the voice mail system to automatically answer all incoming calls with a recorded greeting, and to route callers to a desired extension or mailbox. The KX-TG4000B allows for four separate voice paths, so four system users can access voice mail at once.
This phone system also includes a digital duplex speakerphone with an eight-step volume control. Digital circuitry in the base unit helps reduce echo and the dropout effect for more natural-sounding conversations.
Dual caller ID with call waiting lets you view the name and number of all incoming callers on either the base unit or handset LCD--even if you're already on the line. This caller ID feature also stores up to 50 names on the base unit (up to 30 names on each handset), with direct callback capability. And thanks to caller ID pager call, you can even program the phone to notify your pager when you've received an incoming call, and to forward caller ID data to your pager's display. (Subscription to caller ID services is required.)
Other features includetwo-way intercom/paging, lighted handset keypad, headset jack in the handset, and a belt clip. The handset offers up to eight hours of talk time and up to 96 hours of standby battery life.

RCA H5401RE1 Accessory Handset for 25423/4/5 Series Review

RCA H5401RE1 Accessory Handset for 25423/4/5 Series
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this accessory handset for my 25424RE1 phone as an additional extension for use with the base. However I found out that only the base or the cordless handset can be used at one time, i.e. you can not be talking on the base on 1 line and be talking on the handset on the other. You can not even talk on the same line with the base and the handset at the same time. In other words, when you pick up the cordless handset it locks out the base so you can not dial anyone.

This is a very bad design for a phone, who would have 4 lines and have a need to only use one at a time? I called Thompson and they have confirmed the design.

I'll be returning this today.

RCA 4-Line Speakerphone Review

Average Reviews:

Two basic functions on any phone should be caller ID and a "voicemail waiting"; however, this phone has neither.Even $10 phones at Wal Mart have caller ID, so I'm not sure why they left that feature off.Also, the picture of this phone is misleading, because it shows a number being displayed, as if the phone has caller ID.At least on the box, in big red letters, it states "This Phone is Not Compatible with Caller ID." At any rate, if you don't need caller ID or don't need to be notified when you have messages waiting, I would highly recommend this phone, because it is extremely durable.
