Customer Reviews:
Good phone, but not a great one.......2004-11-17
Good function, ugly appearance.......2004-06-22
The bad news for many will be the appearance. What are the product stylists at Panasonic thinking and who do they imagine the buyer is? One wonders what sort of décor they imagine will be enhanced by bright silver phones with orange LCD screens and antennas sticking up everywhere? Before you buy one, make sure that any other decision makers in the household are consulted on the appearance. The icing on the cake is the rather large baby blue and black logo announcing to the world that this is the "5.8GHz Gigarange Supreme" which completes the overall cheesy appearance nicely. Our Siemens phone may have been had functional issues, but it was well styled and disappeared into virtually any background. On the other hand, the Uniden phones make the Panasonic styling look positively restrained. Appearance earns a dismal two stars.
Keypad layout is pretty typical of what one expects these days from Asian mass-market electronics companies, busy and cluttered. Why use a single button for talk/hang up when you can use a separate one for each? If there was space to add more buttons, rest assured Panasonic would have. Since the buttons actually feel good in use, are not overly sensitive and don't stick when pushed, the layout earns three stars.
In the end I weighted my rating more toward function, as that's really the only area one can be objective about, and the function is strong. If you can stand to look at it, and you're not married to someone that will hold a grudge because you brought something hideous looking into the house, you probably won't be disappointed.

Remanufactured Panasonic KX-TG5210M GigaRange Supreme 5.8 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone with Answering System (Metallic Grey)
Manufacturer: Panasonic ProductGroup: CE Binding: Electronics Product Features:
ASIN: B000BR1ORK |
Amazon.com Product Description
The remanufactured Panasonic KX-TG5210M cordless phone system is expandable up to four handsets, letting you outfit your house with a bundle of phones without dealing with crisscrossing wires or multiple phone jacks. The system comes with a single handset, but with each additional handset purchase, you can enjoy such benefits as a home-wide intercom, perfect for calling the family together for dinner; a page locator, which finds the misplaced handsets within a cluttered household; and four-way phone conferencing.To ensure an elite-sounding connection, the system employs 5.8 GHz frequency-hopping spread spectrum technology, which operates in a less-trafficked wavelength than more common 2.4 GHz signals while still maintaining the same great security, topnotch clarity, and long range. Reception is further improved by Panasonic's Voice Enhancer circuitry, which helps clarify and improve reception by producing an easy-to-hear, natural-sounding voice, making the handsets sound crisp and intelligible even at a distance from the base. Plus, 5.8 GHz frequencies won't interfere with wireless computer networks such as 802.11b or 802.11g Wi-Fi.
This phone system is also equipped with an all-digital answering system for quick, easy retrieval of crystal-clear messages. Message operation has never been easier, with up to 15 minutes of recording time and up to three mailboxes, in addition to such features as a prerecorded outgoing message, remote operation, toll saver, and skip-and-repeat. And don't worry about losing your messages when the power goes out, as they're stored in flash memory for later retrieval.
Another nice feature is the caller ID/call waiting combo (subscription required). Caller ID lets you see who's calling before you answer the phone, while call waiting lets you know when another call is coming in. By combining the two, however, users will learn who's calling even when they're currently in the middle of a conversation with someone else. When you hear the beep, simply look at the handset's LCD display to identify the name and number. It's especially convenient when you're waiting for an important call but still have other calls to make.
The handset speakerphone, meanwhile, is a plus when dealing with automated phone systems. You can turn on the speakerphone, put down the handset while watching TV or typing, and then pick it back up when a voice finally responds. It's far more convenient than trudging all the way to the base unit to activate the speakerphone. There are lots of other uses as well, such as putting the whole family on the phone to talk to grandma or grandpa, or conducting a business call with several folks in the room.
Additional features include a 50-call memory and speed dial directory accessible through the handset's three-line backlit LCD, directory sharing with other handsets, caller IQ compatibility (the subscription service gives you screen updates on weather, sports scores, horoscopes, and more), three ringer patterns and four ringer melodies, and an antenna that lights up when the phone rings. The KX-TG5210M measures 4.9 by 9.2 by 10.4 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty.
