Pretty good little phone........2007-12-29
We bought these phones with two more handsets for use in our business. The range and clarity are great, as well as the intuitive controls. I guess the only beef I have with it is that when you are on line 1 and line 2 rings, the sound cuts out with the ring tone. This is especially anoying when speaking with a customer. Even with this drawback, I would buy this phone again!
Great phones!.......2007-12-25
We really like these phones. The work well, battery life is great. And there are lots of good features!
awesome phone system.......2007-12-22
I am really picky about my phones. I had not seen this system in person only on the internet. Not only am I pleased, I am thrilled. This phone gives you all you really need. It is so convenient. You can pick up a message from any hand set by just hitting a few buttons. No more running to the answer machine. The voice and hearing quality is excellent. Speakerphone is great as well. It does everything I need it to. I have it in a 2500 Sq ft. home and no sound quality issues anywhere. That really does depend on your homes wiring and other wireless equipment. i have cable and wireless internet and it does not have any affect on the system. I highly reccomend this phone, If I'm happy you'll be happy, just ask my wife!!!!!
a little disappointed, just an average phone and answering system.......2007-12-07
The sound quality is just OK during conversation. Answering system outgoing message is actually quite poor sound quality. I have had several other phone systems with much better sound quality. It really lacks features for such an expensive phone/answering system. It does NOT have a paging feature, so you have no way of knowing if a message is left, except to keep calling home to see. There is no feature to allow each line to ring only certain handsets, so the business line rings in your bedroom, like it or not. Then there are the feature buttons that are recessed. They are hard to push, they are soft rubber and you have to push the button just right to activate the line choice or feature you're trying to activate, and it's difficult. The phones have a light that is lite all the time, yet if you choose to have the blinking lite alert you of a message, that uses battery power... doesn't having the light on all the time use up battery power? The handsets are long and skinny, hard to hold and you can't rest it on your shoulder. I wish I knew more about the phone before I purchased it. Not having the paging feature is really a handicap for me. How can I let people know I'm going to call them back within a couple hours if I have to keep calling home to see if anyone has even called, which I'm sure I'm going to remember to do all the time,since I have so much time and cell minutes to waste for nothing most of the time. I just think it's a lot of money for a very basic phone system. The only really decent feature is that you can add handsets, and oh yea, it's 5.8ghz so it's less likely to interfere with my home wireless network.
Declutter your desk.......2007-12-04
Our Panasonic KX-TG6702B dual line cordless phone system works flawless. We had a Panasonic single line cordless system before and knew what to expect. The dual line system eliminates the other phone from your desk and helps to declutter office. In our micro enterprise we got four handsets for receptionist, accounts, art director, workshop. We use one line for outgoing calls to keep the other line open for incoming calls. The intercom is a great feature to communicate between offices as well as to forward calls. Best of all you don't need to run ugly phone lines all over the place. Phone lines are plugged into central unit only while the daughter handsets only need a regular power wall outlet to recharge batteries. The phone's design is smaller and looks more professional than our old system.
Reach is in most cases fully satisfactory as long as you don't work/live in a bunker of concrete and steel.
We have not used the built-in answering machine due to voice mail from our provider.

Works Great!.......2007-10-06
Matched my existing Panasonic phone set and worked like a charm. I have two extra handsets and the base unit. Amazon was the best price and had super saver shipping to boot!
expandable headset .......2007-09-11
I was disappointed to find that a belt clip is not included with the headset! I had to order it as an accessory after I received the headset, and the shipping charge was more than the price of the belt clip. :(

Features, features, features.......2007-10-30
We had been shopping for a phone which has lighted numerals AND caller ID. Good luck with that! Uniden has these features and more in this phone. GREAT JOB! We have had this for a week now, so we are still learning how to navigate through everything this does. The fact that it floats doesn't mean beans to me. It would be a cool feature, if you need an aquatic telephone, I guess. The lighted numerals were important for us for use as a bedroom phone. Most cell phones light up in the dark, so why don't more regular phone manufacturers offer this feature?? Anyway, we are happy with our purchase!
Improved so much..........2007-10-07
Compared to the previous model, WXI377, which I've owed for over two years, this model fulfilled most of my wishes what the older model lacked...
For example, 5.8GHz digital spread spectrum is much more secure than the old 900MHz analog. Now the keyboard is also backlighted as well as the display. The onboard speaker is nice and comes in handy. You can expand the phone to have more handset(TWX977 will give you the very same handset) and have features like transferring a call, page, intercom and conferencing, etc. Phonebook has much larger capacity, and now you can store two numbers per name, and personalize the ring tone...
Some same old problems still exist. The old WXI377 when it was submerged in bathtub, the cavity around the earpiece speaker would be filled with water that blocked the sound. I had to shake it vigorously get the water out, otherwise the volume would so low it was hard to hear the other party. The new model is still the same way, and shaking the water out would take more effort, seems to me. The chain dialing still only works when in a call(when you are connected, you can bring up the phonebook and dial another number. Works well for dialing a phone card access number first, then the real phone number from your phonebook). If you start by keying in a few digits, like "#0P"(I have a 2-line switch, #0 will access my other line. P is for a 1-second pause), you can't get in the phonebook and bring up another number onto the screen to concatenate them together then dial all at once...
The one area it screwed up is the redial number. On the old phone when you display the number by pressing Redial, you can hit Delete button to delete the last digit by each press. So you can edit the number by getting rid of the extra digits last time you entered when on hold and "press 1 go to this menu" or "press 2 for voicemail", etc. The new model does not allow you to edit the redial number. Hit Delete will wipe out the the entire line. This is the only problem I can remember now, that doesn't exist on the old model before...
no problems so far.......2007-09-12
A decent phone for around the pool. Happy to have something that we don't have to worry if it gets wet. Very good sound and voice quality.
Pool Phone.......2007-09-12
This product is WONDERFUL! We've even dropped it into the swimming pool and it keeps on going & going. My husband & I are very pleased with our purchase.
POOL telephone.......2007-09-09
This telephone should be a REQUIREMENT for anyone who wants a wireless telephone that can ACTUALLY be used outside or anywhere that is wet. Worked excellently upon receipt and in all locations since getting it and being placed into service. Plus, it still works after I dropped it into the pool a couple of weeks ago. Also this telephone "FLOATS" in water.

works just fine.......2007-11-15
I purchased the i5803 accessory handset to add to my existing system. The integration was seamless. I now have four handsets on the system and they all work just fine.
This is the longest I've ever owned a wireless phone system and I'm very satisfied with it.
Enjoying a phone that works!.......2007-08-24
My family already owned four of these phones in my house and loves them. My sister recorded her own voice so when they ring my parents know its her. I bought one because of the long battery life and compatibility to the other phones in the house. There are newer versions of this phone which have the color and a little more flare but personally I do not need the bells and whistles in a phone.
Great Phones.......2007-08-09
I have had these phone hand sets for over 10 years but the 2 that are used the most started giving us trouble with the key buttons. I did not want a new phone system and looked for new ones in the store but they do not sell this kind anymore. I was real happy that I found them on Amazon. I put the old ones in the house where we could still use them but not often and replaced them with the new hand sets. Each handset works off the main station. All you have to do is plug the charger in a wall socket for each handset. You only need one phone connection for the base. I now have 6 handsets working in my home. Each one will hold 50 telephone numbers, has caller ID and can be used as an intercom between all the handsets. I love these phones and am so glad that Amazon had them.
It's an ok phone, but I've had better. .......2007-07-27
I'm not thrilled, and I bought a bunch of them so I'd have a phone in every room, but they are big, clumsy, and don't always do what I ask them to. I liked my old ones better. Oh well. You live and you learn.
Excellent!.......2007-07-13
Just what I wanted! Just what I ordered! Brand new still in the box! THANK YOU...

Garbage.......2007-11-29
This phone is garbage. If I had to do it all over again, I would put more money in to buy a panasonic phone. The phone has lot of static and people I talk to complain that they can't hear me well. I also have an ATT phone on the same line, and that one works great!
very disappointed.......2007-06-09
Purchased 2 GE cordless hansets 5.8 GHz 28001EE1
Only one of the units work, The other did not. After contacting Amazon and then the seller and then GE I ended up having to pay shipping and insurance I sent it to "Thompson Product Exchange" as directed and hope for a replacement at some future date, perhaps 4 to six weeks if ever.
Will make any future purchases at local retail establishments.
goodbye!
Great product!.......2007-05-31
These phones work great with the free SunRocket phones. I bought 2 to add on to my original 2 and they set up easily and work great. This was the best price I could find, too, especially with the free shipping.
A 4th phone for my home.......2007-05-12
I am not real good at electronic things. I got this phone online with the other phones in less than a half an hour (after the charge time). The reception is clear so I am very pleased.
Great cordless phone.......2007-03-13
Got this extension phone to work with the free phone we got from SunRocket's VoIP. It works great and was easy to get it "hooked up" with the base unit.

Product Description
VT 5820 is an accessory handset for your VT 5831 cordless system. It offers superior sound quality, security and clarity. Features include Sound Select - an innovative technology that provides personalized audio performance; vibrating handset ringer alerting you to incoming calls with or without an audible ring; and an analog and digital clock display on the handset. Bring telephone service to rooms where it was previously unavailable!
Amazon.com Product Description
Note: The VTech 5820 is no longer being manufactured. You may want to consider purchasing the newer VTech i5801 instead.
Expand your VT-5831 or VT-5881 5.8 GHz DSS cordless phone system to its full potential, with the addition or one or more VTech 5820 accessory handsets. Handsets include individual charging bases, which require only a power source to add an extra phone extension to any room in your house. The 5.8 GHz DSS transmission does the rest by allowing each handset to communicate directly with your phone system's base unit, so there's no need for installing additional phone jacks.
Handsets feature caller ID with call waiting and visual message-waiting indicator, storing up to 50 names and numbers access able through the handset's LCD. The LCD also features digital and analog clock readouts and handy navigation controls. The 5820 provides a distinct vibrating handset ringer, which can be used alone or with selectable ring tones.

vtech 5820.......2007-10-05
great phone, I have owned 3 for 7 years with no issues. I recently bought 3 to max out use with my vtech 5831.
Phone problem with battery compartment.......2007-07-24
The battery compartment didn't hold batteries inside firmly to make good connection - had to correct with duct tape. Works fine now.
I really like my vtechs.......2006-11-08
I've had my vtech phones for about 3 years. Originally I purchased it with 2 handsets, then added a third. Now I am about ready to purchase a few more to replace my other phones in the house (especially since it's easier to connect the base unit to Vonage than modify the home wiring).
The only downside is that if one misplaces a handset and doesn't notice for a day, the batteries will run down and the phone will be a lot harder to find. I'm still trying to find one awol handset! Then again, that's a problem with any wireless device...
Phone great, charger lousy.......2006-10-21
In general, I have had a great experience with this phone. Having speakerphone on the handheld phones has been a lifesaver sometimes, and I've found it to work fairly well (I mean, it's speakerphone and sounds like it, but I've never had complaints using it for a short time in a conversation). I've had no problems with buttons in hte 2 years I've had it. I love that you can page the handsets if they happen to get misplaced (though you have to know which handset is missing, or else try all of them). I get great battery life (which is a very good thing--see below).
My complaint is the charger. I believe I have cared for it well, cleaning the metal pieces that make the connection (I'm not particularly technical) occasionally in case of dust or other build-up. We have two phones. For the first year, both chargers worked great. Then one of the chargers would only charge if we put something behind the phone to change the angle it charged at--this would keep the green light on. About two months of that, and that charger stopped working altogether, so for the last year we've been using just one charger for two phones. Since we live in an apartment, that works fine--it avoids the overcharging problem, to be sure! However, now our single charger is requiring the "special angle", so I'm becoming a little concerned that this really is a pattern in this product, rather than a single "Lemon' of a charger.
Like I said, in every other way, I have been very happy with this phone. But if I can't charge it anymore, well.....
I will make no judgment on the company overall, having used only this one product of theirs.
Great while it works!.......2006-02-07
When I first got this phone equipment, I was delighted. It lasted about six months before fizzling out on me. The speaker phone on the base unit worked fine at first. Now callers tell me it sounds as though I'm in a dance hall ... a dance hall with lousy acoustics. The buttons on one of the hand units don't always work. I punch in a number, only to find that I have to do it all over because one or two of the digits didn't register. Now, one of the units won't recharge properly when seated in its base.
What a waste of money.

Great Phone - I Keep Buying Them.......2007-09-26
I like this phone system. As other phones fall apart in the house I replace them with these. The display is great. The stored numbers and speakerphone options are good to use. My original phone purchase in this system was 3 years ago and the original still works great. I just wish that you could network the stored number lists on all the phones so you could update in one place instead of each phone.
Great reception, features, range, quality.......2007-06-15
I originally bought 2 of these with an answering machine unit and was so impressed I added a 3rd one, replacing the last hardwired phone I had.
The range of these is pretty good... I can wander around my 1/2 acre and still get great reception to the base unit.
The ability to upload pictures or make your own ring tones is pretty cool. It took me a year or two to actually do that since the stock images and rings were suitable, but it's fun to try things out.
Also it's nice that the batteries in the unit aren't some custom battery back...just plain old NiMH, so if they ever get to the point where they don't hold a charge, you can get spares just about anywhere they have batteries (or even some alkaline AA's in a pinch, just don't try charging it if you do that...emergency only) :)
Quality Product.......2007-03-28
We have used the base unit for 2 years and loved it so I ordered 4 additional handsets. The clarity is excellent, and easy to program even for a senior citzen. The new handsets are the same with the exception that I can't program and change the screen color like the original. DR Roth shipped extremely fast. We had the hand sets within 2days of ordering from NY to rural central WA
great clarity.......2007-03-11
I ordered this as my third V-tech phone to replace a Panasonic I had in our bedroom. I have the base v-tech with the answering machine in my kitchen and another v-tech in rec room. The Panasonic in our bedroom had poor voice quality (it was rather old) and I continually had to leave the room and switch phones. So now I'm happy because the V-techs have very good clarity!!
Great Phones.......2007-02-22
I already owed two of these phones and needed to add handsets. The phones did not disappoint me. They are easy to use and from my previous experience have not had any issues at all. I have used my orginal set for almost 3 years.

Have had my Motorola system for well over a year now. Many, many complaints:
1. the handsets buzz
2. battery life is bad - one of the handsets now lasts about 3 minutes
3. no headset plug on the base unit, which I have to use often because the handsets are so bad.
4. You can't read the display on the base unit unless you stand over it and look straight down.
5. If you take the time to assign names to all of your handsets, you lose the names when the power goes out! This happens even if you put batteries in the base unit.
6. The headset jack on the handset units is nestled into a soft plastic area. Some headsets also have a soft area on the male piece that plugs in. Two soft areas do not connect well... the headset falls out. I finally found a headset that stays plugged in.
Don't buy the Motorola MD71.......2007-03-13
I purchased this system 8/05 with two handsets. Within 18 months, the handsets began to behave erratically. First, the ringing would go on after the base phone was picked up. Next, the handset would signal "out of range" even when inches away. I tried to reset the system but unplugging it; the two handsets just died.
Please save yourself a headache and resist purchasing this utter P.O.S. Shame on Motorola for despoiling their brand in such a cheesy fashion
loser !.......2007-02-19
I, too, bought this phone with 3 extensions based on reputation and features. The range of the cordless handsets is mediocre (compared even to my old cheap Vtech). Worst of all, the handsets won't hold a charge ! Even after overnight on the charger, I pick up a phone to answer it, and get beeping for low battery.
There is something bad with the circuitry, because I bought a NEW battery for a handset ... and it is somewhat better, but still runs out of gas after only 40 minutes or so of talking.
I'm tossing it out
Don't buy it.......2006-11-28
This is the worst system i have ever bought The communication is very bad. I don't recomend it.
DOH!!!.......2006-08-07
Well, it looks nice, it's small, setup isn't hard, the sound is good, and it has several cute little ringtones. However, this phone has a major design flaw that makes it unusable for me:
There is no way to tell the answering system to record silently! Every time it answers a call, it broadcasts both the OGM and the message that the caller leaves, through the speaker! There are volume buttons but they make only a slight adjustment, from loud to medium loud.
Sometimes, you might not want other people in the room to hear the messages being left on your phone! Sometimes, you might be sleeping, and don't want to be disturbed.
Apparently, this never occured to the Motorola product designers. DOH!!! What a boneheaded mistake. Mine is for sale.

Stone cold dies, but when it works, it's great........2007-12-31
Here's the trick: when it dies, charge the batteries in a different NiMH battery charger. You'll be good for another week or two, and then it will die again, and you'll repeat the process. Nice, eh? Not really. I love these phones when they work, especially the intercom feature, but something is really wrong inside to make them die like that with no warning.
reliability problem.......2007-11-14
I purchased this handset to go with my base unit in Aug 2007. A month later, it was dead (blank screen as described in other reviews). I returned it for a replacement and that one died less than a week later. I'm on my third one now and hoping it will last a long time. I've owned the base unit and its color handset for almost 3 years with no problems and I do like the phones.
The handset gets a low rating because of reliability, but Amazon and the dealer get a high rating for service and ease of product exchange.
Disappointed.......2007-11-13
The menu background is a dark green which makes it difficult to read. There is lighting above but not below, almost appears to be an error in manufacturing, they forgot the bottom lights! Also, they should have forgotten the images, not very creative.
Excellent Handset.......2007-10-31
I have the handset upstairs, bring it to bed at night and recharge it during the day. The handset has 50-name directory and the most exciting part about it is the personalized ringtones. I have assigned ringtones to certain callers to facilitate identification. Also, the bright handset light makes it easy to read the caller's name in the dark. Further, equipped with speakers, I don't have to hold it on my ear to talk.
Met my expectations.......2007-10-01
The product received was exactly as described. It arrived in original manufacturers shrink wrap packaging.
Shipment arrived in fewer days than original estimate.
