VTech 20-2481 2.4 GHz DSS 2-Line Expandable Cordless Phone with Digital Answering System and Caller ID (Silver and Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I looked all over to find a 2.4GHz 2 line cordless phone, before purchasing the Vtech.What I liked about it (besides the price) was that it has a very readable caller id screen on both the base and handset and a speaker phone on the base and handset. The handset speakerphone is a very unusual feature that I find very handy.The phone is also nice in that you can purchase additional handsets for locations where there are no telephone jacks.
Sound quality is very good, and the range seems much better than my old Sony 900MHz phone.
Here's the downside:
1. The base is not wall mountable.That may not be a problem for most people, but it is for me.
2. Occasionally, pressing a button on the phone does not create the correct tone.For instance, when calling my answering machine, I'm supposed to press 7 to delete the message.Although I press 7 on the phone (and 7 shows in the display), it is not always recognized by my answering machine.This has happened on other voice mail/computer phone systems too.I don't know if this is a problem on my specific handset, or is common to Vtech.
3.The quality of sound from the handsfree speakerphone varies.I can be talking to a caller using the handset speakerphone, and the voice fades in and out... even when I'm right next to the base.
In sum, it's a great looking phone with all the right features at a good price.The minor problems I've described are probably limited to my unit.I'll try it for a while longer, and then exchange it for another of the same model if I continue to have some problems.

Vtech DS6321-3 DECT 6.0 Digital Expandable Three Handset Cordless Phone System (DS6321-3) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We had bought this phone from Amazon, along with many others on the way. To compare, we tried: AT&T's TL9237 ~ $120, Uniden's ELBT595 ~ $70, and Motorola B802 ~$95.

This phone far exceeds those with more bang for your buck. It can connect up to 3 different bluetooth devices, but only 2 at a time can be active.It does a great job of downloading your phonebook from your cell, and can have your directory available on all handsets. When accessing the phonebook, you can choose which cell's directory to use, and can rename the cell phones that connect (i.e. Bob's Phone). I've had the phone for about 2 weeks, and have yet to have a dropped call, and bluetooth connection is outstanding. Very clear.

I have a Blackberry Pearl, and my wife has the Iphone. Both initially connected seamlessly and automatically connects to the phones upon entering the house.Two of the three other bluetooth cordless phones we tried had the issue: if you are on the cell phone when walking into the house it'll drop the call to connect to the base. Upon testing it with this product, there was a short moment of silence, but the call maintained connection with no problem.Excellent!

Each active device on the phones can have their own ringtone. This is very neat.One downfall of the phone is you have to set the ringer and ringer volume attributed to a connected device ON EACH HANDSET, and you can't change the ringer on the base (simple enough, turn the base ringer off).Although it was only 3 phones we had to do this to, it took less than 5 minutes and it was set and done, so not a huge deal.

Why it works for my uses... I simply wanted a bluetooth cordless phone that works. I don't need memo's (who uses those anyway?), fancy ringtones, headset jacks (this doesn't have them), or anything else.If you are simply looking to extend the talking capabilities of your cell phone to the rest of the house, then this phone is it.I can't comment on the answering machine because I don't use it.The max talking distance between handset and base is decent (when I tested it, it went through 3 walls, exterior wall, and traversed the length of my yard before a hint of static).The phone is very simple to use, and buttons are large (probably because there isn't any fancy shmancy crap on it).The handsets are lightweight, and pretty good quality (they look like they could survive a few drops). Batteries initially take about 16 hrs to charge, but man they can hold that charge. Great battery life.The speakerphone is pretty good too.

All in all, if you are simply looking for a phone to do a phones job for a lot less money, this is an excellent choice.Sorry for the essay... and major use of ().
