Customer's Reviews (All-Reviews)
Alex Perry Bought this phone for parents and they love it, but can never tell when they have a message on the answering machine, as it only had a little led that blinks and no auditory indicator.

Lynaire Lockhart ( The Bahamas ) The base was exactly what I had expected it to be. It came in really good condition, considering that I bought it used. One small problem was the batteries that it came with were not Panasonic batteries, so it wouldn't work. I was lucky to have two stored away and was able to make the swap. After that it worked like a dream.

E. Atkinson ( Tampa FL ) This Panasonic is a great little cordless speaker phone. It's small and cute ans works well.

Marysia ( NY ) I really wanted to like this phone, from the moment I began to use it, the sound wasn't clear and there was constant static. After less than a year, it just started shutting off out of nowhere (usually when I had to make a phone call). I am sending it back to Panasonic.

defilm ( New York, United States ) I purchased two of these phones to install on Linksys Analog VOIP adapters in my home. After deploying Power over Ethernet (POE) 802.3AF IP phones from Grandstream and Astra, and configuring the VOIP PBX with 3 POTS lines
in a Analog to Digital trunk card, and configuring QOS on my primary home switch (A Cisco 3550), and deploying POE switches where needed with QOS, the house is now wired with all VOIP ethernet based phones. I# did try using SIP based WIFI phones, but with encryption, they just are not ready yet. So I installed two Cisco Linksys PAP2T Analog to SIP Digital converters that talk proxy to the PBX via SIP. Each PAP2T will accept 2 regular phones as each has 2 FXS ports.
Ironically all my IP phones, the IVR's, Trunking, Web conferencing works
great. But my Panasonic analog phones do not.
One had problems after a month of use. Press speaker phone button, the phone instantly resets. The other issue is when trying to dial someone, if the phone is busy, and you hang up and redial as you would with any phone sometimes you get a "Line Busy", or a "Cannot connect to base".
The second phone functions well in the same room as the base. It can become
a problem if I walk to the next room, (20 feet through 2 walls), or downstairs, 20 feet, as the room below is directly beneath the receiver.
While talking with no warning I lose the transmission channel to the base
ersulting in my ability to hear my remote speaker, but he can not hear me.
Resetting the base and phone solves the problem for now.
The irony is that my wife is angry that the phones are unreliable and is
blaming it on the "complex PBX", which is working fine! She can see the first phone reset when the speaker phone button is pushed, but was convinced it was a problem with the PBX or Linksys adapter. So I took the second phone and remove one of my phone lines from the PBX.
I plugged the phone base directly in to the Telco Jack on my Fios ONT.
So now it was running on the line the old 2.4Ghz phone system was running
on. Same problem.
BTW, my VOIP PBX is replacing a dead Panasonic 4 line 2.4Ghz phone system that served me well. But these panasonic phones have really poisoned my
view of Panasonic. I will try another brand and eat these. I am very surprised as there was a lot of positive ratings from Amazon customers and I usually do well following the ratings from other users, expecially when there are many (> 40) when I puchased them and the rating is 4 stars....
I have seen quite a few people that have had problems also however.
Some have discussed the problems in their review. Followed up on their review 2, and 3 times to say how bad it was, but yet rated it 4 stars???? Whats with that?? If everyone did that, the stars would be completely meaningless...
I recommend trying another manufacturer. There are just too many other brands to take the chance. One phone bad, OK. Two.... Not so good...
