Uniden phone a disappointment

Good phone, good price, one drawback

 

Good phone, good price, one drawback

For the price, this product works exactly as advertised. Only had it for few months, but has good reception, range, and battery lasts long enough so far. It's operation is as easy as any other wireless phone u've ever had. The PROBLEM with this is...

Couldn't ask for better range!!!

 

Couldn't ask for better range!!!

I had this same phone but with only one handset and the range that it had was amazing. We have a field across from our house and it would reach out there with no problem what so ever, and it is a good 200+ feet across the street!!! That would be why...

There's just no range

 

There's just no range

I live in a regular size house, and this phone's range doesn't cover it. I tested it in the 'open air' and the phone was good for maybe 20 feet! And not being able to use both phones at once, clinches this product as the worst phone I'ver ever bought!

where's the logic?

 

where's the logic?

The quality is not bad in these phones. I have no problems with range of reception and the sound quality is not bad. They also don't interfere with internet usage like some phones can. BUT, why oh, why would you want two phones that cannot be used...

Consumer review by:

Great phone!

 

Great phone!

Finally a phone that DOESN'T interfere with my wireless internet! It uses a combo of 5.8ghz and 900mhz, unlike some that use the 2.4ghz combo, which will knock out wireless internet. Range is excellent. Went down in basement and outside all around...

Consumer review by:

Don't Buy It!!!

 

Don't Buy It!!!

Who is the Einstein who designed and packaged a two phone system in which only one phone can be used at a time. What is worse...the phone has 0 range and those that you call can not hear you. DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!!

Great phone

 

Great phone

My first 5.8 GHz went right back because of poor sound quality but this phone is a keeper. Other than more ring types I think these phones are perfect. Great product for a great price.

Consumer review by:

Very bad Static Problems

 

Cheap, two units, lots of features

Static, lots of it.

Consumer review by:

Crap phone

 

Crap phone

This is a horrible phone. You get 2 ft from the base and it dies. You walk around the house and it dies. The sound is fuzzy and always static. I returned this days after buying it. Stay away.
