A:AnswerHi! The speaker volume and clarity are good for everyday use. For customers who need a significantly louder phone, our amplified phone systems are a better option. - S
A:AnswerHi there! We recommend disconnecting your iPhone, restarting it, and rebooting the landline phone by unplugging it for about a minute. Once done, reconnect them using the Link2Cell feature to resolve the issue. - S
A:AnswerI'm not quite sure of your question, but yes, there is a power adapter that connects to your home electrical service and that adapter connects to your main unit to power it. The main unit does not use batteries. The phone handsets do.
A:AnswerThis is a difficult question to answer because there are several things to think about:
1. Does it let you use the handsets to make calls using your cell phone service and to receive calls using your cell phone service?
Yes, it does that. A little wonky to set up, but not difficult. The steps are clearly listed, and it works.
2. Does this let your answer machine on the the main unit or your cell phone to record messages from unanswered calls?
No, it does not. The unit is not designed to do that, and I'm sure there are various technical reasons why this was not implemented in the technology, but the main unit is physically incapable of "hearing" a cell phone service to accept a voice message from a caller. And as an added twist, your cell phone will also not record a voice message from someone who tried to call you but left a message.
So caveat emptor!
Unfortunately, for those of us who bought this for this very reason - this isn't something clearly specified in the available pre-sale literature.
A:AnswerHi there! Yes, you can enable the "Ring as Cell" feature to know which cell line a call is coming from. Once this is set to "On," the handset and base unit will use the same ringer tone as your cellular phone. This needs to be enabled for both connected cell phones. - S
A:AnswerHi Georgia! Yes, the talking caller ID can be turned off, and the caller announcement can also be disabled. While this particular model does not include a headset jack. We do have models that support headset connections. For a 4-handset system with a headset jack, we recommend looking at the KX-TG994SK or KX-TGF944. - S
A:AnswerHi there! We could recommend turning on the Automated Call Block feature that requires any new caller to type a code before calling in. These spam calls should not be able to call in afterwards. We hope this helps! - F
A:AnswerHi there! The newest cordless phone models available with 4 or 5 handsets include KX-TGF944, KX-TG994SK, KX-TGF975S, and KX-TGD864. Hope this helps! - S
A:AnswerHi Candy! An open box product means the original packaging has been opened, but the item itself is usually in excellent condition and fully functional. It may have been returned, inspected, or used for display purposes and is not sold as brand new. Please note that open box items do not come with a manufacturer’s warranty, so it’s important to consider this when making your purchase. - S
A:AnswerHello! As the phone system was not tested for this type of usage, only with a landline connection, we encourage you to check directly with the telephone service provider for information. Please note that if you encounter issues with the sound or related to Caller ID services when using VoIP, the phone may require a DSL/ADSL filter to be installed on the line by your telephone service provider. - S
