 Caller ID problems April 12, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have actually had two of these phones. The first one I returned because the caller ID seemed to only display the caller about 60% of the time. After about a year I decided to try it again - mostly because I loved the looks of this phone. I have been using it now for nearly a year, and although the features are really cool, the caller ID problem is a HUGE problem for me. I am the biggest call screener ever, so I rely on caller ID and call waiting caller ID both to screen calls but also to return calls at a later time. I would still say it only works about 60% of the time. The only slight correlation I have made is to cell calls. Some cell calls come through fine, but others don't register at all - but of course not one particular cell number all the time... For the price of this phone, I expected the basic phone functions to work 100% of the time with the addition of some fun features. Unfortunately, what I got (both times) was a fun feature loaded phone with poor functionality. I am now looking at another panasonic (which I have had excellent experience with in the past).
 love it...after replacing the battery March 3, 2008
Found this phone to be so cool when I bought it a couple years ago. I ended up with what so many talk about. The phone searching for the base. I found that many times (not all the time) I set the phone on the base unit, it was like it was shocked into losing connection to the base. It would require my having either to remove the battery in the phone unit, or unplug the base unit. I never had this kind of problem with the second phone unit. I decided to get a replacement battery for the base phone, and it has all worked very well ever since. BTW, I love the speaker, and use that most of the time. Very clear. I really like the various sounds and pix so I know who is calling. It also has a way cool design. Easy to use buttons. If you find problems, try a new battery, see if that resolves the problem for you.

I bought this phone one year ago. I have had nothing but problems. I wasted a lot of money for this phone and an extra side line. (It keeps dropping a connection) The Master phone isnt working now either.
Buyer Beware!
 great phone for 1 year BUT February 6, 2008

We LOVED this phone with all the feature it has. You can record your own ring which was need so the kids would hear the name of the person calling.
Just before the warrenty was up the phone would drop calls. The display shows "searching for base" (even right next to it). We called customer service and were told (after resetting etc) to send in the handset unit. They send a new refurnished one back. After a little while the same Propblem. We called Vtech again this time they told us must have been the base unit but unfortuentelly we now out of warranty. After back and force they send us a refunsihed new base about 2 weeks ago. Same Problem calls getting dropped all the time. I can't even pick up the phone a lot of times. YES, we did change the locating of the phone.
Of course I called them again and well we already out of warrenty even so each new set came with a warrenty label to keep.
Sad we realy liked the phone while it was working!

I have had this phone 2 years and although is great when it works I have had to have it replaced 2 times. Vtech was very helpful and replaced the phone for free under waranty it has still been a hassle. The picture is better than I thought it would be and is very easy to set up and use.
