Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The KX-TG2382's 2.4 GHz frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology randomly changes frequencies several times per second, which helps to eliminate cross-talk and accidental eavesdropping when multiple handsets are in use. The phone comes with two handsets, one base unit, and one charger. A third handset can be purchased separately and instantly incorporated into the system.

With call waiting/caller ID (which requires subscription to fee-based phone company services) and 30-station memory, the LCD displays the name and number of incoming callers even when you're on another call. The three-line, multifunction LCD lets you see all caller ID information without scrolling. Also, back lighting on the handset LCD aids visibility in low light situations. A digital handset speakerphone helps reduce the echo and dropout commonly found in speakerphones. Up to 30 names and telephone numbers can be stored alphabetically and quickly accessed for dialing via the handset's navigator key.

Using three-way conferencing you can connect two other calls for a three-party conference right from the handset. Six selectable ring tones let you choose from a variety of alerts for incoming calls. A low-battery indicator on the LCD lets you know when its time to recharge the battery and a two-way intercom lets you contact any other extension in the system at the push of a button at the base unit of one of the handsets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't go wrong with this phone., August 27, 2003

I bought this phone to replace our old Panasonic and VTech 900 MHz phones. Well first I bough the Motorola MD451 but the constant drop out of sound could not be ignored anymore. Returned that item and bought the KX-TG2352W. Same price with less features but the sound quality is 100% better. People on the receiving end comment about it too.

Features I like about the phone:
* Excellent sound quality (even being close to the microwave and my computer)
* Intercom between handsets
* Backlit keypad and Caller ID screen
* Actual 7 days between charges (Motorola couldn't last 3)
* Cool ring tones (I have them setup on the bird call)
* Good range (about 400' from base, base located in the office upstairs)

Features I don't like:
* Limit of only three handset extensions
* This model (no answering machine) only comes in white
* Individual call directory per handset
* Menu's to get the phone to dialup voice-mail

Features I wish it had:
* Larger LCD screen, more lines
* signal strength meter
* caller directory (phone book) linked together (each phone has it's own)
* More ring tones
* Able to add more than 3 handsets
* Different color than white (black and silver please)
* One button push to dial voice-mail
* Key pad lock (for when it's in my pocket)

5 stars, I highly recommend this phone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Phone, May 14, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG2352W 2.4 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone System (Office Product)

I bought this phone a couple of months ago and have been very happy with it. The caller ID is easy to read with larger print than my last caller ID cordless phone (a Sony). Reception and range are excellent. There is a speakerphone on each handset. The two handsets can also be used like an intercom or walkie-talkies inside or outside the house. There are also handset locator buttons on the base, for each handset, and a button for a third handset if you choose to order it. You can push the buttons individually, or locate all two or three handsets at the same time, with another larger silver button on the base.

You have 6 ring styles to choose from. There is a directory where you can add numbers from your caller ID list, or add your own names and numbers. Two belt clips come with the package, and you can use an optional headset (ordering instructions in the owner's manual). The phone also has flash/call waiting capability. The volume has a good range. There is green backlighting on the number keys and caller ID screen.

I like the white color of the phone except for one thing - it gets dirty and shows it more than my last cordless phone which was gray. The base can be wall-mounted or sit on a flat surface. The second handset has a charger that can be plugged in to any electrical outlet in your home - no need for a phone jack.

I charge my cordless phones every night, including this one, so I will never know how faint the warning beep is, as another reviewer complained about. I charged my phone the required 15 hours when it was first set up, and charge every night.

Highly recommend.

Just bought this last week, upgrading from old 900 MHz systems, and have already ordered an extra handset. This beats having to run phone jacks in the kids bedrooms, and the intercom feature should put an end to our current "shoutercom" system that we employ whenever we want the kids to come downstairs.

Sound quality is excellent, with no degradation when I walk out to the mailbox. The speakerphone is really good too. I do wish the volume could go a bit louder, though.

Programming the thing is simple--I figured it out without going to the manual, which does appear to be thorough and reasonably well-written. The wall mounting adapter looks kind of wobbly, but that's not a concern for me.

My only serious complaint is that you can't have more than 3 handsets total in this system. I'd love to have two more. Also, I wish you could do three-way conferences with the handsets, but you appear to be limited to two.
