The Uniden EXAI7980i is a white version of the popular EXAI7980. It combines 900 MHz cordless range and clarity with a full menu of functions and features, including a digital answering machine, caller ID, and a base speakerphone. All of these features combined make an easy-to-use, comprehensive, cordless call management system for your busy home or office.
It's easy to avoid unwanted calls with the EXAI7980i; this phone shows callers' names and numbers as well as the call's date and time in the handset's three-line display window. The unit saves caller ID information in a 30-record digital file that allows scrolling, deletion, and instant callback. And, with caller ID/call waiting (subscription to service through your phone company required), you can see a caller's name and number even when you're already on another call.
The handset display window, which offers backlighting when you answer or place a call, is the EXAI 7980i's information center. In addition to displaying caller ID and call waiting information, it shows the number of new calls or messages and the elapsed time for the current call.
The versatile base speakerphone also offers plenty of timesaving features. You can screen incoming calls by activating the speakerphone with just the touch of a button. You can also use the speakerphone and handset as an intercom system or for three-way conversations among an outside caller, a person talking from the handset, and a person talking from the base.
With 15 minutes of recording time, the EXAI7980i's answering machine has plenty of room to take all your new messages and save your most important ones for future reference. You can set the maximum message length at one or four minutes, or play announcements only. Digital technology allows message phone numbers to appear in the display window as you scroll through your message list; it also offers instant message repeat or message deletion and a voice date/time stamp for messages.

Customer Reviews:
Love my Uniden exai7980i.......2003-03-17
Easy to use, nice features.......2003-01-25
In my opinion, the highlights are:
- Toll saver (the answering machine answers on 3 rings when there are messages, in 4 or more when there are no messages)
- You can listen to your messages remotely, using a password
- Pager button to locate a misplaced handset using a loud beep
- Digital message recording - No tapes or rewinds necessary
- Enough message storage capacity - I have never ran out of space for messages
- Caller ID
- Loudness settings
- Different ring types available
- You can connect headphones to the handset
- Speaker phone capabilities
- Easy to configure date/time settings
- Display the minutes used in most recent call
- Easy to obtain replacement handset batteries in any Radio Shack Store (Cat No. 23-193, Ni-Cd 3.6V 700mAh)
Quirks:
- Sometimes the answering system doesn't stop recording after you pick up the handset. It records the whole conversation up to the time limit preset. There is no specific condition that triggers this (total mistery)
- Sometimes the handset doesn't start recharging after placing it on the base. You need to jiggle the handset a bit to make it recharge
Notes:
As with any electrical device, the phone stops working when there's a power outage. Always keep a standard phone available in another extension just in case, unless you connect the Uniden phone to a UPS (as I do)
There are currently more "technologically advanced" phones on the market, but this "old" guy compares favorably with many of them and it is more affordable.
Best phone I ever had.
100% Recommended.

Where can I get a battery?.......2002-10-17
One year and several problems later..........2002-05-01
One thing I found uncomfortable about the phone is the proximity of the "Talk" button to my jaw. When I cradle the phone between my shoulder and head while talking, I inevitably hang up on the caller. Sometimes it doesn't hang up - it just puts the person "on hold" and I can click back into them. This, of course, is quite random.
Another feature I don't care for is the fact that you have must delete the message while you're listening to it. If you have any old messages, you must hit PLAY, then delete it. Not a major incovenience, just a minor annoyance.
Occasionally, the answering machine will pick up on the second ring instead of the fourth as it normally does. Again, random.
The phone base fits well on our wall and the phone itself is easy to use. The ring tones and volume is adjustable and the channel features are useful.
