Digital camera reviews of Uniden TRU9465-2 5.8 GHz Digital Expandable Cordless Phone with Dual Keypad and Extra Handset
Digital camera Review: Great all-round phone, perhaps the best available now
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently went through a thorough research for a new phone system, going through research and test purchases.
The main criteria were:
1) Good sound quality (most of the decent cost ones are okay)
2) Very good handset speakerphone quality (Can't stress how important this is to me, and how different quality is among brands/handsets)
3) work with voicemail (like sunrocket) message waiting indicator. If a system has an answering machine it can't do voicemail message indicator light.
Most other features are pretty common across models/brands. Battery life is okay not that great with most 5.8Ghz systems.
The best phone I've had is a 900Mhz DSS Sanyo bought in 1997, but they stopped making or selling in the US.
I wasn't looking for cheap and upto a point price wasn't a concern.
The winner is : Uniden 9465 . Any of the Uniden 5.8Ghz digital systems using the TCX905 handset are the same, just different feature sets.
I tried the Panasonic 5.8Ghz high end system , and was pretty close, handset speakerphone quality was slightly worse and was the decider. Talking callerID seems like a great idea but is hopelessly badly implemented in the Panasonic systems. Talks too late, after 2 rings and taks nonsensically most of the time. I'm getting a Classco 9900CW box and will see how it works.
New Uniden DECT phone build and quality was atrocious. GE DECT phone (WalMart) was horrible.
Didn't try the others, including the Motorola
Digital camera Review: Great base
Summary: 5 Stars
Best phone we've owned. The fact that it is easily expandable was a big buying point. We have added a third handset and it's been great. We have also enjoyed using it as a baby monitor at times.Digital camera Review: Great cordless phone
Summary: 5 Stars
No problems - I was looking for a replacement to a 900 MHz phone that had given us good service for several years. This has been a good replacement with a few new features that are nice.Digital camera Review: Great cordless, big improvement over my last Uniden
Summary: 5 Stars
I finally found a phone I have no problems with no matter where in the house or yard I use it. The microwave interfered with my last uniden but this one works perfectly. I love the ease of turning off the ringer, and I LOVE LOVE the room monitor feature- especially that it doesn't alert he person in the room that they are being monitored (don't want to wake the baby or let my older boys know I'm checking in on them!)
I only wish the caller ID didn't delete the times the caller called if they call from the same number more than once. But, that's hardly a big deal when all the other features are everything I need! FINALLY!
You can't go wrong with this set! (and I am a hard person to please, I've been thru several cordless phones before being happy with this one!)
Digital camera Review: Great expandable phone system for home
Summary: 5 Stars
I searched and searched before I decided to purchase the Uniden TRU9465. You can find this unit packaged in many ways - base alone, base + 1 handset, etc.
This phone is loaded with features that you're sure to love. For starters, you don't need phone lines all over the house to add the extensions (which can be purchased separately as needed). I picked this unit specifically because I did not need/want an answering machine (I use phone company voicemail). But it does have voicemail alert with a flashing LED on top of each handset to let you know you've got a voicemail message. This feature works just fine, but with the small mom-n-pop phone company I'm on, I sometimes have problems with the voicemail indicator being cleared after checking voicemail messages. But there is also an easy procedure on the base for clearing the indicator.
Other great features include the ability to page the other handsets directly using a menu on the phone. You can set extension names on the individual handsets so those names appear in the intercom list. The system also has a 100 name/number directory that can be copied to one or all of the handsets. You can set distinctive ringing patterns to incoming calls based on caller id in your directory.
This phone system keeps us from having to run upstairs all the time to let our teenagers know they have a phone call - which used to happen quite regularly. My wife also loves the ability to use the intercom feature to let everyone know that dinner is ready. No more yelling around the house and hoping that the other person hears you.
The other great thing about this phone is that it operates on the 5.8GHz frequency, so you won't have to worry about potential interference from your wireless network adapters or bluetooth devices.
