Toshiba SG1700 2.4 GHz Silver Cordless Phone

Rating:
Summary: nice phone
Review: Well, for all of you that don't know, Toshiba cordless phones are made by UNIDEN. It has a different casing, but the internal circuits are entirely the same, so the quality is identical to the 2.4 GHz Uniden phones. One word to summarize the quality of this phone--echo! It echos like crazy, reminds me the early 900 MHz DSS phones. If you want a really good phone, go for Panasonic... VTech make phones for a lot of brands, including AT&T. Heck, they owned the right to market phones under the AT&T brand. This applies to Sony and other name brands. I think the only company design and make their own phones is Panasonic. That's why alot of the echoing or static problems appear phone after phone, because they are all made by Uniden, VTech, or a couple of Korean companies...

Summary: This is not good.
Review: Well, This phones works fine. The only problem is that there is no way to set the sound volume correctly. If you put it high it is to high or low it is to low. It just does not sound right at all. You have to strain to hear. It is too hard to hear. The distance will not beat my 25 channel phone 20 years old. Well, Anything is better than this. The only good sound 2.4 Gz I have seen is the G.E. Expensive 900dss are ok. What we need is to get Sanyo back in the U.S. not this phone.
