Bottom line for me is that this will be the last Uniden product I ever purchase. I don't know why this information isn't simply taken from the caller ID message. It makes 3 way calling much more difficult when using entries from the address book. The call could be 2 minutes or 92 minutes and it may or may not reset when placed in the charger. With the good experience with the Uniden product and wanting to get something more up to date, I selected the Uniden 5.8 GHz model that included call ID features.
2 stars because it does have good range, but I would expect that in any 5.8 phone. But one of the most annoying things about this phone is that I have to set the time of day and day of week. Getting the unit up and working was simple enough - as any phone should be. I've owned a 900MHz Uniden Extend-A-Phone for over 10 years and I've been happy with it - the only exception there is that the range is pretty limited. Programming the call entries wasn't too bad but I don't like the method for activating the calls from the list.
It wouldn't be so bad to set it once, but this phone has the nasty habit of resetting when I plug it in the charger after a call.
The best is, should he want to enhance his phone to a more than one device system it is a very economical and simple step. Also cudosto being able to find the perfect gift on line with such easy access andconfidence. Good look for a man. NO fuss, no muss. This phone was the purfect choice. I purchased this product for one of my sons for Christmas.Needless to say from the title he is a great guy but not easy to find a gift for. It is simple to operate anddependable. Havn't heard a single complaint.
This has more feature and even a room monitor if you have the base unit. I live in an area where a lot of interference can occur.
Overall it is a nice phone. Over all it is a good phone with mute, redial, programmable ring tones and even gives the date and time and automatically updates for Daylight Savings Time.
I sometime have to hang up on a call and call beck to resolve the issue. You have to write the number down and manually enter 1 and the area code and number for calls our of your area code.
I replaced my old phone by the same manufacturer with this one. The only thing I don't like is that there is no channel search feature.
I don't like how you try to call a number back in a different area code but the phone will not allow you to insert a 1 and then dial.
The only issue I have with this phone is that it is the last phone in the house to ring. The audio quality is good, the battery life is good. Not a huge issue, but annoying. I have had excellent luck with Uniden cordless phones for many years. This one seemed like a good idea. Alway one ring behind the rest.
I sent this phone back because I could barley get 100 feet before being out of range
