Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
This phone's sleek black surface lets it blend seamlessly into any modern décor, but it offers more than just a pretty face. The 900 MHz DSS operation provides clearer connections, better range, and greater security than analog cordless phones, while the long-life battery extends your conversation time to as long as six hours. Panasonic's Digital Spectrum Spreading technology keeps your calls safe from eavesdropping by automatically shifting frequencies many times every second.

Built into the back of the handset is a backlit three-line LCD, which shows the entries in your 50-line phone directory and up to 50 entries with call waiting/caller ID. Also included are convenient volume controls for ringer and handset, voice-mail indicator, lighted keypad, belt clip, and headset jack. Panasonic provides a one-year warranty on parts and service.

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Battery won't hold a charge.......2002-10-26

One the unit I bought, the battery, after 1 year of light use, will not hold a charge of more than 15 minutes (supposed to be many hours)

2 out of 5 stars Convenient, but low headset volume and short battery life.......2002-08-31

The phone is very convenient for the user; especially used on a belt with a headset. However, remote users complained of low, distant sound. Most disappointingly, the battery life has deteriorated quickly, and after a year it is nearly unusable.

4 out of 5 stars Follow the directions on the unit (not like me).......2002-08-29

Good user interface, very sturdy, well built. Voice quality is as good as cordless phones get, though they still are not as good as an average land line phone. The three line LCD displays complete Caller ID info without scrolling.

Be Fair Warned !!

We made the mistake of returning the remote unit to the base after every call, which they tell you with a big sticker, not to do until the recharge light comes on. We are now down to 10 to 15 minutes of total talk time before recharging. Don't do what we did, follow the directions and fight the urge to return the remote unit to its base after a call is completed.

2 out of 5 stars 8 Months old and already dying!.......2002-04-11

I've never written a poor review for a product so I'm reluctant, but given that the phone is so new and is now having so much trouble, I figure I'd better warn other consumers. Also I bought this phone primarily because of customer comments here, so I might as well share this experience.

While it could be that I just managed to get a lemon, the fact that this product worked beautifully for six months leads me to think otherwise. Usually lemons never work. For six months this phone was great, but about a month ago the LCD screen's contrast got rather dark and unfixable making the Caller ID and directory hard to read.

Now the phone has begun randomly cutting out--it will stay connected to the party with whom I'm speaking, but it goes dead for a few seconds and neither party can hear the other. It has also started crackling at random. I try switching channels, but to no avail.

The phone was great when it worked properly. Given its longevity and its price ... I would strongly recommend checking out a different phone.

1 out of 5 stars Elementary Test.......2001-12-25

This is great phone till you are on a receiving end speaking to someone who is using it. The sound is very poor. As other people noticed it sounds as if you are in a cave. Often people using the phone are nor aware of it. I think it is an essential element of a phone to transmit a decent sound. This phone fails this elementary test.
