Summary: Good phones for the price.
Review: ** You can NOT use both handsets at once **
I wasn't aware of this when purchasing the phones. Although it isn't enough of a reason for me to return them, I think it needs to be stated clearly. You can only use one handset at a time.
Otherwise I have been happy with the clarity of the calls as well as the battery life. The caller ID with call waiting is also quite a bonus. The phones are easy to use and the reception is great! Too bad you can't use both at once!

Summary: Try to get one not two...
Review: I don't have the two set but I do have this phone. I understand many people are not happy with this phone. But, I can say we have had our own which is exactlly the same only it is one phone not two for about two years. And we talk quite a bit so replacing the battery once is not too bad. I would recommend going to Walmart as they sell this same phone and you can get one phone. It works fine for us and even looks great still. We charge it over night and can get a full use of it all day. I also love the Caller ID fucntion as it still is crisp and sharp. I don't personally have a problem with my phone in hearing on it, yet, maybe they changed something on the dual one. My recommendation, try looking around to see if you buy this phone indivudually we got ours a walmart and a friend of mine also recently got the same phone at walmart so I know they still sell it.

Summary: Can't beat the price
Review: I don't know what John M. Young from Texas is on about because these are great little phones. I've had next to no static with them, and the battery life is excellent. I've actually sat on the phone for 7+ hours and not been forced to switch to the second handset. Furthermore, I also found it rather useful that not only does this phone have caller ID, but the caller ID also works when recieving a call via call-waiting, which is highly uncommon. The memory dial and rocket dial are extremly helpful, especially when dialing long distance numbers that you don't often use. The range is great as I've walked half a block from my house and have only had a hint of interference. As an added bonus, they're light weight and it prevents them from becoming cumbersome during lengthy conversations. The only possible criticism I could possibly think of is that an answering machine is not included, but at 35 dollars who's complaining?

Summary: Very good phone for the money.
Review: I have been using this phone for about 6 months now and it works just fine for me. The range is excellent and the time between recharges for the battery is the best of about 5 portables I've owned.Only minor complaint is an ocassional slight background noise that might be coming from some appliance in my house. Not bad enough to distract me or the person I am talking to.

Summary: Good Phones with a potential problem
Review: I recently purchased these on Amazon 'coz I needed a decent 900Mhz phone and this was the best priced one especially w/ dual handsets. The reviews on Amazon for this unit led me to try 'em out. Worked fine for the 1st week and then I lost dial tone on the voice portion of my phone line while the DSL was working fine. The SBC repair technician checked everything and said the he had seen this particular problem numerous times especially where Uniden cordless phones were involved. He said that sometimes the phones don't hang up the line as they're supposed to even after you press the "End" button. This causes a "short" on the line resulting in loss of dial-tone on the voice portion. After my line started working, the dial tone was lost again the following day (in less than 24 hours) and this time the DSL is also down. I'm waiting for the repair technician to come back to diagnose the problem. If it turns out that the Unidens are causing this, I'm going back to the Panasonics. I like the Uniden look, form factor and price and am hoping they're not the culprits. Will post a followup review once I diagnose this problem completely.

Summary: Reasonable phone
Review: I've been using the previous model (DXI-386-2) for a couple of years, and one of the handset stopped connecting to the base. Giving the going price, I bought this set as a replacement. It is one advantage of having the low price phone: one won't go heartbreak if it stopped working.
This phone set has only basic functions according to today's standard. The multi-line LCD display does help on dialing even if one doesn't need CID. Nothing fancy here and nothing wrong. Note that the two handsets can't be used at the same time for conference, but transfer from one handset to the other is allowed.
The battery life is good. I never measured exact talk time, but it seems to be able to support full-day talking.
The sound quality is pretty good, but there are occasional clicking noise even not too far away. The range is not great inside the house. In theory, this 900MHz phone should work better in obstructed setting compare to higher frequency phones (2.4G and 5.8G). It doesn't fare that well though, for the both model versions I have. In short, it doesn't cover the whole house well for me (noise gets higher when away from the base). The new model also get complains from the other side of the line for soft voice, which was not a problem in the older version. Overall, however, it is acceptable quality and when I say it doesn't cover the whole house well, it does cover the whole (medium size) house, nevertheless. At this price range, I think this may even qualify as a great deal, depend on your expectation.
I have a 5.8G (digital) phone which beats this one on range and noise level, but more expensive. I don't have a 2.4G phone to compare with (I use wi-fi network, so trying to avoid 2.4G).

Summary: Nice phone
Review: These are lovely little phones, but for us they have almost zero range and a tremendous amount of interference noise. Changing channels has no effect. No local reason, just a suburban home with no electical or industrial problems around. I have other Uniden cordless 900 MHz phones that are superb, but these guys have something wrong. I had two sets of them and both were awful performers. Save yourself some grief and look further. Amazon treated us superbly on the transaction, not their fault the phones are so weak.
