 Not that impressive... September 6, 2008

First thing I noticed when I recieved this phone, is how cheaply made it is. The phone reciever is made of plastic and feels very cheap. The base is worst & probably made of the cheapest plastic on the planet. You would think a phone costing near $50, would be made better. This alone made me want to return it right away. I had 2 GE phones before this and both were made better. Compared to my 5.8Ghz GE phone, I didn't see any difference in sound quality. This phone is greatly overrated and overpriced. It does come with a few cheezey melody rings and call blocking. But my phone service already provides call blocking. The only good thing I can say about it is it does have good range, better than my GE. I could see paying $25 for this would be a fair price, but $47 is ridiculous.
 Drops calls September 6, 2008

I bought this as a replacement for the Panasonic KX-TH1212B which drops calls like crazy because it uses the same handsets. I have a mix of the 930 and 935 drop and splash handsets. This phone drops calls too! The phones (both models, bases and handsets) are beautiful and have great functionality and quick response, but are unreliable and frustrating that calls get dropped. I will never buy another Panasonic phone.
 Great, clear-sounding phone July 31, 2008

I read quite a few reviews while looking for a phone before settling on this one. I'm generally quite happy with the performance of it.
The screen is very clear and easy to read. More importantly, the sound quality has been excellent. Words were sometimes hard to hear on my old phone, and non-word sounds (mhmm, uh-huh, etc.) never seemed to make it to the other side. This phone, though, catches everything. Another thing I like is that I can turn down the earpiece without affecting the other party's volume. Speaker phone is great, too, and the other party usually can't tell I'm using it.
It's not all sunshine and poppies, though. I'm annoyed with the 50-number phonebook. That's 50 *numbers*. I didn't realize it would fill up so quickly. When many people have at least two or three phone numbers, that can easily be just 20-30 people. I know hermits with more people in their phonebooks.
Also, the phone is great with my wireless network, but terrible with my radio (they're right next to each other, which is unavoidable). Another minor annoyance is that it tells me I've missed a call, even when I've answered it.
I'm happy with this phone, but will definitely make sure my next one has a larger memory.
 Solid Phone! July 26, 2008

I love this phone! It replaces my other Panasonic phone. The connection is clear and does not interfere with my wireless network. The build quality is very nice, better then I expected. I've splashed it a little while doing dishes in the kitchen but no problems. I've yet to drop it on anything but the bed or carpet floor, also without any problems. Most people thing I'm on a corded phone when using it . I'm impressed!
 Not worth the extra money July 5, 2008

I bought this phone because our Uniden 5.8 GHz phones were not ringing loud enough and the higher frequecny has trouble going through a lot of walls. Which my old 2.4 GHZ didn't. I figured the lower frequency would take care of both the Wi-Fi issue and range through walls issue. Well yes it did, but the phone is not worth the extra money. The phone seems to work fine through 3 walls without dropping the signal like my 5.8 does and it doesn't mess with the Wi-Fi. Problem is, it doesn't ring worth a hoot either. You can barely hear it. Yes, I have a hearing loss, but not so bad that I can't hear a phone ring. This is just a standard cordless phone that uses a lower frequecny and charges you a lot of money for it. Save your bucks and buy something different.
