Att Dect 6 Cordless Phone - dect cordless phones
Set up is easy, all units have great sound quality-- does not sound like you are in a tunnel like some units. Good range of use-- I have the main unit on main floor and another unit downstairs in the basement (40-50 ft away and downstairs) and the downstairs unit works just the same as the main unit standing right next to it-- great sound quality. No interference noted from any other electrical equipment. I am very satisfied with the units. Also, Amazon's was the lowest price I could find for the same units anywhere. Arrived in 3-4 days. Very satisfied overall. AT&T DECT 6.0 White/Grey Digital 3-Handset Answering System (EL52309)
For the price, this is a decent phone that doesn't interfere with my wireless router.
My biggest two problems with it:
(1) When you press MUTE there's a very small indicator in the display; it's too hard to see, so it's clumsy if you're not sure whether or not mute is on.
(2) There's no port for a headphone. The normal audio is so-so and the speaker audio surprisingly good, but I might not have bought this phone had a realized it didn't have a headphone port (because I like to be hand-free with headphones).
Other than that, it's certainly a decent phone, and well worth what I paid for it. It is strange that it doesn't have a speed dial, but the directory feature is easy enough to use. Even without looking at the display, you can just push the DIR button the appropriate number of times (say, 1=Police, 2=Fire) and press the Phone button to place a call.
Good phones, well constructed, decent sound, full feature set, fair price. I'm very satisfied.
And the best part? THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE SOME CHEAP KNOCKOFF CELL PHONE, unlike every other landline phone currently on the market. For one, they're not black/grey -- because who wants a black phone hanging on their white wall? (And seriously, what happened to product design in this market segment? The designs are atrocious.)
My only complaint would be the lack of a clock battery, requiring a re-set of the internal clock anytime the power goes out. Seems an unnecessary oversight.
Maybe AT&T sent me a device that had already been rejected, but this phone, nicely reviewed by others, is a dud and I look forward to replacing it. Despite all the usual features it has poor sound quality which is what you most need in a phone, right?
Simple to hook up, simple to use. Never read the directions, the phone is self explanatory. Absolutely Love this phone. It took me a long time to get the phone I wanted. It had to be an AT&T, have at least three phones, an answering machine, speakerphone, and had to be white. I did not want a silver or black phone. This phone had everything I wanted and works great too !!!
This phone is inexpensive and poorly constructed. Inaddition the company that markets thru Amazon makes it difficult to return. I return the product and it cost me a total of shipping both ways plus another charge I did not understand cost about $28. To me it make sense to go to stores where you can pick up the phone and
check it out.
I was thinking of getting this model (on Ebay) at at an incredibly inexpensive price.
However, after calling AT&T to inquire about "speed dialing"... "THERE IS NO SPEED DIALING" on any AT&T 6.0 digital phones!
Speed dialing for frequently called numbers can usually be set for numbers 1-9 on the key pad.
The phone was intended for my 83 year old mother... any older person needs speed dial in an emergency and these phones do not have it!
Ridiculous to pay money for a phone with no speed dialing function/s. - Dect Cordless Phones'
