Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
DECT is a cordless phone protocol that has been very popular in Europe for nearly a decade. The FCC recently adopted this technology for use in the USA. It makes sense. Range is nearly doubled, sound is radically improved, and battery power is exponentially more efficient. 2 Digit Message Counter on Base Light Up Indicator w/ Message / Ringer Alert Expandable Up To 6 Handsets Handset Speakerphone 3-Way Conferencing Intercom or Call Transfer Between Handsets 3-Line Backlit LCD on Handset 50 Station Caller ID Memory 50 Station Phone Directory / Dialer Handset Locator Adjustable Ringer / Volume Control 15 Selectable Ring Tones Flash / Redial / Mute Clock & Alarm Bi-Lingual Menu Support (English / Spanish) Belt Clip Headset Jack Wall Mountable Rechargeable NiMH Battery Included

5 out of 5 stars Best DECT6.0; renders 5.8gHz obsolete!   April 14, 2007
silphium (Texas)
143 out of 153 found this review helpful

We'd looked long and hard at the latest 5.8gHz Unidens (TRU9300 and TRU9400) and Panasonic (6000 series) and hadn't been exactly overwhelmed by the range and voice quality. Battery life was a joke.

The we heard about the new Panasonic DECT 6.0 phones. In a word: WOW! Dramatically better range, sound quality, and rated talk time than any of the 5.8ghz phones. Uses 2 ordinary AAA NiMH's. Plus the features of the DECT 6.0 standard itself.



5 out of 5 stars Lot more than specifications tell you   April 29, 2007

I have just used this for 3 days now. Very happy. The specifications do little justice to this phone. 1. This unit has a speakerphone on both handsets. I thought there would be just one on the base fixed unit. 2. Unlike the comparable Uniden model, this has a headset jack. 3. The buttons are big and easy to dial.

No wireless router interference. Overall very happy so far. Much more than I expected.



4 out of 5 stars Does as advertised   June 8, 2007

The Panny KX-TG1032S come as a two-phone system with a base and charger for each. I didn't really want two phones, but it is handy to have them in two different locations and I am glad I have two now.

6.0 technology is supposed to be better, but frankly I had no problem with my old phone with 2. something tech.

The sound is clear, the buttons are big and have a good positive click, the scrolling for the phone list is nice and it is not too hard to get the two phones to share the information once you figure out the arse-backward directions for doing so. The answering machine function works fine. I can walk far from the house and still get reception so you can expect to get your calls if you go out to the garden or garage. There is no interference with a wireless internet device like Airport.

Style-wise, this is no iPhone. Still, it does have that techy silver color and is not hideous. I thought the price was fair.

I took off a star cause although I understand how to set digital devices, I much prefer the analogue approach over enters and modes and all that.

All told, this is a good solution for most any land-line need.



3 out of 5 stars ok phones .has some cool features but also big drawbacks   September 28, 2007

I got this phone about a week ago in order to replace a 2.4 panasonic that died -some numbers were not dialing and finally battery hookup broke off- In general I like the phone but it has some major things I don't like.
Pros: Easy to set up. You get 2 phones with 1 phone jack. Speakers are great! (unlike with my old phone people don't complain when I use them). You can hear answering machines messages from either remote set. Phonebook sharing. You can conference between phones and call each other (big hit with my kids).
Cons:
1. There is something wrong with the volume (I read complains about it in reviews in Circuit city and thought maybe person had hearing problem... but no, they were right). Let me explain: the volume goes up and down by itself for no good reason. One phone call you hear great and next one is really low so you need to adjust volume and it goes up and then down on its own again -sometimes during the same call while you are talking- .... You can live with it, you adjust volume but I don't particularly like playing with volume every other call! For me it is really a pain!
2. Answering machine base don't display the number of messages you have (it has no lcd screen!). No talking id or any other fancy stuff either.
3. When you play messages from answering machine the sound is a little boxy, robot like...not clear. This does not happen if you hear messages from the phones themselves.

In conclusion I would say this is an all right phone, I expected better... but it is also not very expensive and it has the latest technology. I guess now I know why some 5.8 panasonic phones (previous technology) were more expensive than this one... you get what you pay.



5 out of 5 stars "CLEAR"LY superior signal - when it works   October 19, 2007
Roger A. Knopf (Menlo Park, CA United States)
46 out of 50 found this review helpful

This is now my fourth expandable wireless phone system for my home. Every one suffered from inability to provide me a clear signal everywhere on my property, and particularly one wing of my home where my wife has a workroom for her business. This is the first phone that gave us a clear signal everywhere, through all the walls and as far away from the base as I could get.

I also very much like the use of a standard size (AAA) NiMH battery - the proprietary batteries in all the other phones were very expensive to replace once they failed (and fail they will if you use the phone actively long enough).

UPDATE: after a couple months, all is not as good as it seemed. Some days I have good range, other days some of the handsets cannot even connect to the base. Unlike the analog 5.8MHz phones it replaced instead of deteriorating signal, when the signal is not strong enough it just drops the connection to the base. Once about 2 weeks ago my wife was sitting 3 feet from the base station and had 3 calls dropped in the space of a half hour. I am beginning to wonder if this base is defective, as I have a second base with two handsets and have not experienced any of the problems the first base is having (but then I don't range quite as far with those phones). I will also experiment with alternate placements of the base to see if there is interference (for example my wife often sets her laptop right in front of it).

So we had a promising start but now there is question as to whether I can keep this or not. I will update again after some experimentation.
