Summary: Didn't Last....
Review: I bought this phone (not from Amazon) less than a year ago and recently it has begun to badly malfunction. I get severe static moments into any call, and the static simply gets worse during a call. Also, it now loses its connection with the base unit on about a third of attempts--even when I hold the handset directly beside the base! I get the message "out of range" in these cases. So, I'm here to buy another phone and would suggest you pass on this one.

Summary: Application Caution
Review: This phone seems to be hypersensitive to outside interference. To its credit, there is not a problem when the unit is in use and the clarity and sound quality are excellent. However, when the unit sits or is charging, 'Out of Range' conditions have occured requiring a complete power disconnect to fix. According to Panasonic customer service, something is interrupting the phone- to-base signal. My unit is currently at the repair center and its less than 90 days old.

Summary: Best Phone
Review: On Panasonic Phones this is the best phone to buy and the best place to buy it is here because in the stores it is more.

Summary: This Price, this new and NO MUTE BUTTON!!!!
Review: I don't know about you, but when I shell out cash for the latest tech gadget, I expect all the features of yesteryear and better. So how come there's no MUTE button?? And what's with the annoying menu navigation button that's no user friendly?? Panasonic is not the only culprit though because I have tried every 2.4 ghz on the market and 70% do not have MUTE. What's going on here, do people not feel the need for privacy anymore? I spend a lot of time on conf calls from home and I need a MUTE.

The phone did have really excellent range though, looks cool and durable, great clarity and no interference. I just need a MUTE. So, it went back to the store along with the others.

Summary: Misses calls
Review: We've had Panasonic phones for awhile and have always been happy with them. This phone misses calls though: we'll pick it up and it'll take a moment to connect then say "Out of range" even though it's next to its handset.

I've missed too many calls with this phone and I'm here now shopping for a new phone.

I strongly would not recommend this telephone: especially at this price.

Summary: Disappointed
Review: I was (and still will am since I've returned the phone) looking for a high quality speaker phone with a good range of operation for my home business. The phone is not intuitive to use (e.g. if you type in a wrong number, it's not obvious where the backspace button is, mute?). The receiver is awkward, heavy (compared to the Siemens model)and the notion that I'd have to replace the batteries at some point make this a return.

Summary: Its a pretty good phone!!!
Review: The Panasonic KXTG2570B is a pretty good phone overall. Panasonic has some great features on it. The features include; caller ID; Digital Answering Machine; Remote Access; and the idea of being shockproof, and water resistant. The phone isn't for everyone though. The reason for this is because other items, such as the microwave (which uses the same 2.4 GHz signal) can interfere with the phone signal. Recommendations are to keep the base unit away from the microwave or any such items. I have the KXTG2570B, and I haven't had problems with it.

Summary: ok, but just ok
Review: i bought this phone after i bought the siemens gigaset. it took three days to decide to return the panasonic. (making it somewhat better than the siemens.LOL!) it just wasn't very good. the sound of the phone was only average and the speaker on the answering maching was distorted. there's no back up batery so if there's an outage you can't use it and will lose your excisting messages. my headset sounded awfull on it. i bought the undiden exr 2480 after this phone. it's two way 2.4 ghz transmition makes it the clearest cordless i've ever heard. but again, the speaker on the answering machine is junk. i think i'll take that one back and keep my old one till something truely good comes out. good luck!

Summary: where in the world is the mute button? go 900mhz instead!
Review: ok, so i'm a telephone phreak. i buy a new phone every few months like clockwork.

i saw this one at fry's and thought, hey, a 2.4gig phone, that should have incredible range and every feature i want!

i was only partially right.

1. the phone gets a LOT of interference from other sources, especially if you have it too close to a cell phone while talking. it doesn't automatically switch channels to find the clearest one, and sometimes when you manually switch, it doesn't get any better.

2. the battery doesn't last long, and after a few long conversations, it's off to the recharger.

3. there is NO mute button, the way you have to mute it is to hit the intercom button, and basically put the call old hold while the intercom is active between handset and base.

4. the base does have a speakerphone option which is nice to answer the phone if you can't find the handset, though you MUST use the handset to program it, and you have to remember which codes to use or you can't do it. it's not user friendly in that regard.

5. the phone looks slick, it has two antenna for sending and receiving which is supposed to help the range...i've found the phone cuts out even when i walk into my back yard, much less down the street.

6. the phone gets really hot if you talk on it a while and will make your ear VERY warm

7. the belt clip thing? don't bother putting it on the phone unless you really intend to use it.

8. the antenna on the hand set is not flexible and gets in the way if you want to talk in bed and put your head on a pillow

9. after a period of time, the phone became so dysfunctional that i could no longer delete messages from the answering machine, and could not get the phone to be in range even when standing right beside it

for the cost of this phone/answering machine combo, i expected more, and would have returned it and gotten something different if i'd had the time.

after the phone failed to function any more, i purchased the panasonic 900mhz phone and have been happy ever since. while 900mhz may seem like a step down, the quality is still there, and it will not interfere with things such as cell phones or wireless network like the 2.4ghz phones will.

Summary: Disapointed
Review: Phone had great features,enough that I bought 2 of them. Over time, one stopped working totally, after gradual disintegrating sound quality.The other one gets so bad that I have to switch phones to hear the person i'm speaking to.The funny thing is, the phone that we switch to is an old 900mhz Panasonic.
