Customer Ratings & Reviews

This phone system is very good because of its voice quality and range. Another convenient feature is that only the base needs to be plugged into the phone line, and any extra handsets just connect to the base, so this is a great phone if you are looking to add a phone in a room that has no phone jack (you can place the base in one room and the phone with a charger in another.) I have also used it outside on our property, and have not run into any signal or static issues. (Since this phone is digital, it will either work with perfect clarity or not work at all - there is no in-between). The box advertised the encryption feature of this phone, however, do not be lulled into a sense of false security by it, as it is only 64 bit encryption and is very easy to crack (Your nosy neighbor with a radio scanner probably won't be able to eavesdrop on your conversations, but a sophisticated hacker can.) Of course, if you are worried about security, then you shouldn't use a wireless phone (Or a landline phone at all for that matter). If after purchasing this system, you find that you need extra handsets, you can purchase them seperately. By the way, this system also makes a great intercom. Only minor problem that I noticed is that the display seems to pick up deposits from human skin easily, but the phone is very easy to clean, as it does not have too many nooks and crannies. Also the buttons will not wear out from your fingers, as they are made from clear plastic and the numbers are printed on the other side. By the way, this phone does not operate at 6 GHz. You might say: But it says DECT 6.0 on the phone? Well, due to the fact that over time, the frequency of cordless phones has been generally increasing, people started thinking: bigger is better. So the marketing team at v-tech figured: well, numbers sell so we better give this a good number, and thus you have it DECT 6.0. The actual operating frequency is 1.9 GHz, which is very good, because it will not pick up interference from wifi and bluetooth and will not interfere with wifi and bluetooth.

Even after months, they keep working properly, good stuff

Really dissappointed with this phone. Pick it up to answer a call and it keeps ringing. Hellooooooooooooo, it's 2011 already. You have to press the green button to answer the call, I didn't have to do that on the 5 year old panasonic I threw out when I got this one. Almost all the ringotnes are tacky (circa 1990) and irritating. The worst is the LCD display. It's an ugly green color and the letters are so tiny you can barely read them. Even worse, if there is a message on the answering system there is no visual cue to let you know, cept a tiny cassette tape icon, litterally smaller than a black ant. My panasonic has a blinking lite to let you know. And lets not leave out the speaker phone surprise; if you press the green button to switch to listening over the earpiece you hang up on your party. You need to press the lighted speaker phone button instead. Even worse is the fact that these idiots are still using proprietary batteries, at 20 bucks a pop you will pay for replacement batteries what it cost to purchase the phone. Panasonic now uses rechargable AA batteries which don't cost 20 bucks and are more readily accessible at most big box stores. OK but how's the reception? No complaints in this department. Reception is clear and loud and has a very good range, and I'm talking about going through concrete walls and steel girders here. So if you live in one of those condos that don't have any steel girders and have cheap dry wall corridors it will probably work all the way down to the lowest level in the parking garage. I will not buy vtech again, when these die I will replace them with Panasonic. The last vtech phone I had died exactly one week after the warranty expired.

very easy to set up, really nice looking phone. sound quality is great , my calls have never been so clear. bright backlight makes it easy to make calls in low light . i like ever thing about this phone, so many good features can't list them all.

It is a good product. I just bought it for my business and I also have one at home for more than 2 years now. Very good, good rangem good sound, battery life excellent.

I tend to use only my cell phone now but my wife likes to have a house phone for kids, convenience and emergency use. I didn't want to put too much money into these as they do not get as much use as our house phones used to. I am very happy with the sound quality and range of these phones. durability has yet to be determined as I have only had them for a month or so.

Slim phone, easy to handle with great speakerphone and sound. Set up was easy. Battery life is excellent. Handset will stay charged if off the base for 48 hours. Only drawback, did not come with headset plug in.

I like that I can be cooking and talking at the same time and the quality of the speaker phone is great (adjustable volume). Also, I can call my son at his room using the intercom feature (No more screaming! parents, you know what I'm talking about!).

This is a great set of phones. The set up was VERY easy, and the battery life is very good. I've had them for about three months now, dropped a few times, no damage. One of the best features is that you can listen to your messages from the handset, and you can delete or save from there as well, so you don't have to go to the base. I've had vtech phones before and these are just as good. If you are looking for a basic cordless phone system this one should not disappoint.

I was once a loyal V-tech customer, but this is the second time I have gotten a bad V-tech product. This product has all of the features I wanted at a reasonable price. However, once I got it home it did not perform. Out of approximately 12 telephone calls, the caller ID registered 2 of them. I also immediately noticed that when talking on the phone it often (about 1 out of 3 calls) sounds like you are talking from a tunnel. I gave it a week, but I am going to return it. No more V-tech for me.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these phones. Clear voice, no static and all the features you need. The range from the base station was not that great but it works fine for my purposes.

I recently purchased this telphone and I am not quite sold on it! I attempted to place a call and I could hear a weird buzzing sound in the background. The person I was speaking to could not hear it though. I recently made the purchase so I am going to give it one week and if it doens't get better, it's going back to the store!

Nice phone, easy to use and came with a second handset. The price couldn't have been better.

The user interface is pretty intuitive - buttons are laid out nicely, etc.. The problem for me was that it had no way to set it to let you hear messages as they were being left. I missed more important calls because I was in the next room and couldn't hear the message. I returned the phone.

I bought these phones nearly a month ago. I have trouble hearing the person on the other end sometimes and they have trouble hearing me. The caller ID has already stopped working completely. The phones don't have some of the features that I like either. They're going back.

Bought phone and brought it home. Plugged in phones over night. Yep, they work, just like they're supposed to. What, did you want them to do tricks or something?

I have not let it fully charge ,so I will update after doing so.I have made several calls all have sound like a very very poor reception cell phone I'll give it to a fully charge if poor back to the store

Excellent telephones, Actually you only need a node! The screen is so clear, the answering function is ok for me! and for the price you can not get a pir of phones with answering phones and with this quality.

THe phone is used in a rather large home and signal strength remains strong.

I have had this phone a few months. What I don't like is there is no way to delete numbers from your call list. Also, I haven't been able to figure out how to delete a number out of my address book or how to edit it after its been added. Probably because you can't do it! Now after only a few months, it acts like its always low on battery, cutting off and going dead for a few seconds. I just hate this phone and I'm on here now looking for a new one. Oh also, it doesn't have the ability to do special ring tones for special people.
