Digital camera Review: GE Lifestyles Big Button Cordless Phone
Summary: 3 Stars

I am hearing impaired.
I can hear well while talking on this phone.
The one complaint I have is that when it rings the volume ring is low.
I set the volume on maximum and I still have a hard time hearing it ring.
I tried the different ring tones and still have problems hearing it ring unless I'm right next to it. It doesn't ring very loud.
I suspect the ring tone itself has a high pitch, which is part of the problem. This high pitch is in the hearing range most people lose due to age related hearing loss, so I am surprised the phone ringer is in the high pitched range of hearing.
The large buttons are a plus.
The price for the phone is reasonable.
I have been, and continue to be pleased with the quickness of the free shipment by Amazon on their items.

Unfortunately the 'boost' for hearing impaired only acts on a portion of the frequency spectrum, and is not a 'volume boost' of the overall loudness...you are still limited in the volume range to the inherent volume control. It does little to improve audibility for my in-laws (95 and 90 years young). Neverthess, they do not have a fundamental problem hearing with this phone, and my mother in law is getting quite hard of hearing.

Summary: 2 Stars

The phone arrived in a timely fashion. We had a problem with the ringer and receiving calls for a couple days which we fixed by running the wiring through our caller id receiver. I think that the wires we received were faulty. Other than that the phone works fine.

Digital camera Review: GREAT PHONE
Summary: 4 Stars

I neede a phone that was easy to work with and this one is perfect after buying it I have considered buying another

Digital camera Review: Good Phone, Great Price
Summary: 5 Stars

For a low priced phone, this has been great, easy to dial using one hand, fairly easy to read caller ID screen, volume level is good. I only wish for a longer battery life, though it is not bad, but all cordless phones have a too short battery life before it needs charging. I highly recommend this phone, and I have owned and used it for several months without any problem, and it gets used quite often.
