Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

This 2.4 GHz phone system comes loaded with extras, such as a built-in answering machine and an extra handset. The E2725B provides a complete communications solution for the small to medium-sized home. Place a second phone anywhere you need it, without worrying about an extra phone jack.

The E2725B has a built-in, 50-location phone directory to help you easily find important numbers. It is also caller ID/call waiting compatible, with a 50-number caller ID memory. The handset LCD is easy to navigate and can be set to one of three menu languages (English, French, or Spanish). An illuminated keypad is provided to help you dial in poorly-lit environments, and you can adjust both handset and ringer volumes to your liking. You have 10 built-in ringer tones to choose from, while a handset speakerphone and headset compatibility provide hands-free communication options. An intercom function lets you communicate with the other handset location, and the conferencing feature lets both handsets talk with an outside caller. You can easily transfer an incoming call to the other handset, and a mute button allows you to silence your end of the conversation while still being able to hear the caller.

The all-digital answering machine stores up to 15 minutes of messages, or up to 99 messages, whichever comes first. A message waiting indicator lets you know when you have new messages, while voice prompts help you to navigate the system's features. With memo recording, you can easily keep track of important information such as driving directions and phone numbers, and a variable speed playback function allows you to play messages at slower speeds, making them easier to understand. You can access your message while away from home with the remote message check feature, while a time/day stamp lets you know exactly when a call was received. The E2725B also comes backed with a one-year limited warranty.

What's in the Box
Two cordless handsets, base, remote charger station, two belt clips, two NiMH battery packs, two power adapters, one telephone line cord, user's manual, wall mounting adapter

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST cordless phone system available!, October 18, 2005

This review is from: AT&T E2725B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Office Product)

I received this phone as a gift after my GE 900MHz died during its first year. I owned an AT&T cordless phone for about ten years, and I only paid about $50 for it at the time. Once it was time for a new one I quickly bought the GE 900MHz since it was cheap and I was in a hurry. What a mistake!

Like I said, this phone was a gift since it was known I was desperately looking for another reliable phone. I am extremely happy with this cordless phone and answering system! AT&T is a VERY reliable brand and stands by their products. I'll run through some of the main features to help you with your decision.

Cell Phone-like design: These phones are small in design but not too small for someone with vision problems. Similar to cell phones, these phones feature green and red buttons with phone icons on them for the "on" and "off" which are also labled.

Smart directory: Also similar to cell phones, these phones feature a revolutionary smart directory. You can store names and numbers which are automatically alphabetized for quick dialing. Another nice perk is that once you add numbers to the phone book, the name you enter for a number is how it will be displayed on Caller ID when that person calls. For example, if you enter Samantha for 555-555-5555 in the directory, it will show up as...
Samantha
555-555-5555
instead of Doe, Samantha or whatever else. It is necessary to include the area codes in the numbers if you wish to take advantage of this feature, even for local numbers, and you can dial the area code with local numbers without any problems or extra charges to your phone bill. This directory is stored in the base unit, so both handsets share the information without having to enter numbers into both phones.

Speakerphone: Both handsets have fully functional speakerphones which are very convenient and sacrifice nothing with regards to quality of sound.

Digital Answering System: This is once of the easiest answering systems to set up and use. The systems will announce choices in the menu and the display will show you whether the option is currently selected as "on" or "off." Remote access also comes standard.

Extra handset: The extra handset only requires a standard AC outlet without having to be plugged into a phone line. This was a great feature for me, since I didn't care where the base unit was but wanted total freedom as to where the extra handset was located. This freedom is great! Total convenience!

I'm sure there are many more features about this phone that I love, but these are the ones that come to mind the most. If you have been looking for a great phone and don't want to settle, this is the one for you. The price is definitely well worth it!

This review is from: AT&T E2725B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Office Product)

I like this one. It does everything I want a phone to do, including report voice mail messages. The caller id, call waiting, and missed call features all work fine. It was easy to set up and I am not a techie by any means. I recently bought and returned a defective Panasonic phone (after hours with tech support), similar to this except it had more power and was more than twice the price. It was difficult to set up and did not display missed calls on both headsets. Also, if I answered on one headset it reported a missed call on the other (!?) I gave it a negative review. This one is fine. It is totally adequate as far as power goes (I have a small house), and it was up and running in no time. It's a winner. couldn't ask for more. . .

Dual handset with phone answering system. Nothing fancy, just good quality and easy-to-setup and use. The push buttons on the phone are great. Last phone I had (same 2 phone type system)from Panasonic, the contacts on the pushbuttons were lousy. This is WAY WORTH THE MONEY!
