Uniden's EXP9750 is a basic 900 MHz cordless phone and digital answering machine combo that doesn't have a lot of frills but also doesn't cost a lot. We were most impressed with the answering machine, which has features that some other phones in this category lack, such as a time and day stamp. Although it can only record about 15 minutes of audio, the machine easily records conversations and stores memos that roommates and family members can play back when they get home. Using a PIN number, you can access messages when you're on the road. The unit can also be used as a room monitor, so you can hear what your kids (or the babysitter) is up to while you are away.
The handset isn't too shabby, either. It delivers good sound quality and a respectable range. It's possible to store 10 speed-dial numbers in the handset's memory; three "one-touch priority" keys on the bottom act as shortcuts for the speed-dial numbers assigned to the "1," "2," and "3" keys. The phone operates on a range of 40 channels, and there's a button included to manually change channels if conversations are a little fuzzy. You can mount the base unit either horizontally or vertically. While the base does not include a keypad, it does offer a speakerphone. If you don't use caller ID or any of the other services that require an advanced phone, the EXP7950 should meet your needs nicely. --T. Byrl Baker
Pros:
- Answering machine has some nice features
- Phone clarity and range are good for a unit in this price range
Cons:
- Can't make calls from the base unit's speakerphone
- The "1-touch priority" keys are basically worthless

Low Volume Handset, Won't Hold Charge, Poor Sound Quality AM.......2005-10-01

Pretty Good System.......2004-12-06
My biggest complaint about this phone is the handset's battery. I actually almost threw this phone out after the second battery died. For some reason, however, I didn't. I spent the next year using a Panasonic that completely kicked the bucket. I plugged the Uniden back in figuring that 5 minutes of battery was better in case of an emergency than nothing at all. After the full charge, the phone was back to normal. Something happened to the Uniden's battery during its resting period that revamped it! I now have two batteries for the Uniden at home and when one goes, I put it quietly away and use the other battery until that dies. By that time, the battery that I put away a couple months ago is now ready to go again. Yes it sounds tedious, but it's alot less expensive than buying new batteries all the time or buying a new phone. The batteries aren't lasting as long as they used to, but I'll always keep one around for just in case purposes.
The answering system is as good as it gets. I have never lost a message and my voice always sounds crisp and clear. I put holiday music on the system along with my outgoing message for about six weeks every year and I always get compliments. Yes, I like to beat my last year's message every year, but still, if the system didn't work as well as it did, it wouldn't sound as good as it does.
The only other thing that I can say about this is that it's unfortunate that there's no speaker phone on the handset. That, however is my own personal preference.
All in all, this is a good phone for the money. And now that you know about the battery life cycle, feel comfortable giving it a try.
