Rating: Summary: ~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~ Review: pure static, all channels...... person on other end could barely hear me. don't waste your time or money.
Rating: Summary: You get what you pay for Review: The only problem I've had with this phone is the complaint listed most frequently among other user reviews - crap battery life. Reception's fine, no clicking, etc. on the ones I bought (got one for my girlfriend too), but the battery life is for total garbage. Talk more than ten minutes or so, and it goes dead. Leave it off the handset overnight, and it goes dead. A replacement battery costs more than the phone, and I don't think it matters - the batteries just plain suck. Someone wrote something about 300Amphs or something, so maybe that's something to look out for when buying a new phone, because you'll have to after this one drives you up the wall. I think electornics manufacturers are all engaged in a big conspiracy to sell new batteries at outrageous prices (there's no uniformity, so you're stuck with the maker's models). Give me some hunker phone that works on double AAs.

Rating: Summary: Wow, a Vtech that I actually like! Review: This is the first Vtech phone that I actually like. But of course, I am a very very picky phone person. I will sum up my review of this phone in one sentence--modern looks, space saving footprint, feels great when shoudered, good sound quality, and solid construction. In all, a very nice little basic cordless phone. One drawback, it's 2.4ghz analog, so you can't use it anywhere near an running microwave oven or active wireless computer networking equipments.
Rating: Summary: The phone has no battery life! Review: This is the worst phone that I have ever bought. The battery can last 15 minutes of talktime to one hour of talktime, then it just shuts off. It does not get anywhere near the 6 hours of promised talktime. Save your money and buy another brand. My friend bought the same model, and he has the same results with the battery. Perhaps we got a bad batch, but why take the chance.
Rating: Summary: NOT WORTH a 1 Star Rating Review: This phone is pure garbage. Although there is a volume control on the receiver, it does not help at all. Mine has caller ID on the handset, reception is fine, so is the lack of static, but I have to strain to hear. STAY AWAY. I WILL NOT BUY VTECH AGAIN. I paid $25 for this phone, but it isn't worth $5. When I tried to take it back, without a receipt to Target, I was told I could only swap it for the EXACT SAME PHONE. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE 2ND PHONE IS JUST AS BAD AS THE FIRST ONE. I love shopping at Target, but I am stuck with this piece of junk!
Rating: Summary: Very good with lowest price Review: This Vtech phone works very well with me, though I also have a 2.4G wireless network working at home. This 2.4 Vtech phone has never interfere with other sources except some barely audible static a few times. I am very satisfied with it, especially at the price.
