Casio TC920BKHS Black Cordless Phone with Digital Answer Machine & Headset

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
If you use your phone line to connect to the Internet, you'll appreciate this phone's Modem Monitor Connection Protection. The TC920 can tell the difference between data and voice conversations and won't let a voice caller interrupt the data connection of a modem or fax machine.

The phone also features 900 MHz transmission and a digital message recording system, with voice prompts and time-day stamp, storing 20 minutes of messages. The phone claims to have "remote messaging," but in this case, that doesn't mean you can check messages from any phone, only that you can check messages from the cordless handset.

Many Casio phones have seven hours of talk time, but the TC9820 only has five hours of talk time with a seven-day standby. Those with sore necks will, however, appreciate the belt clip and headset included with the phone. Casio provides a one-year warranty.

1 out of 5 stars Horrible phone.......2004-03-05

DON'T BUY THIS PHONE! Hard to hear, fuzzy. Very short headset battery life (JUST A FEW HOURS) and the unit won't ring or record messages if the headset battery is low. So you can't carry this one around the house, take to the garage or yard for very long, that's very annoying.

The unit goes bonkers when there is a power outage (all it's light begin to flash.) If that happens, the unit won't ring and won't record messages until reset. Resetting isn't easy either. A simple turn off-turn back on to reset would have been a nice. Even changing the day/time isn't easy.

The positive is the moden intercept. If you have a single line phone and you accidently pick up phone or are receiving a fax you won't ruin your internet/fax connection. Other phones won't allow you to pick up by mistake thus ruining you internet/fax in progess. If you want to walk around while talking this is fine. It even has a jack for a earphone/microphone and that works great. Just remember to put the phone back in the charger and keep it there when not in use.

One day this one will go sailing out the window. Then I have to buy a new phone, fix a broken window, and endure a tongue lashing from the wife.

DON'T buy it either new or used.

3 out of 5 stars Nice little phone but weak battery.......2002-01-04

I bought this phone a year ago in white. It is a small phone and ergonomically designed. Fits hand comfortably but when rested between shoulder and ear, to free up my hands, my earlobe always pressed the mute button. The answering machine works fine, and if you have call-waiting, the flash button is a handy feature.
All in all the phone is nice-looking/ergonomic/priced right, and the sound quality is good. Of course, there is a downside to all this. The battery life is HORRIBLE. 2 hours off the cradle and it's dead! I am forced into buying another phone after only a year. If you don't mind keeping this phone on the cradle whenever you aren't using it, it is a great buy. If you are like me and like to have the phone next to you wherever you are in the house, look elsewhere...

1 out of 5 stars Very disappointed.......2001-08-25

I have been very disappointed with my Casio phone experience. The first one I bought was returned in less than 30 days due to mal-function. I was given a second one. It lasted only a few months, working only fairly well. Now, it also has mal-functioned. I have contacted Casio's help line (after MUCH difficulty), only to be told to unplug it and see what happens. I followed instructions and it remained dead as a "door nail." I finally became completely disgusted, unpluged the phone and put it aside to be placed in the garbage. Now, I must buy a new phone and I can assure you that it will not be a Casio! Buyers beware!

3 out of 5 stars disappointing.......2001-02-17

The phone is okay, but the sound quality is disappointing and the ringer annoying. It is comfortable to hold between one's head and shoulder. I have not used the ahswering machine.
