Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Boasting 5.8GHz extended range technology, the Uniden DXAI8560-2 Digital Caller ID Cordless Phone makes it easy and fun to stay in touch with friends and family. Packed with advanced features, this user-friendly phone includes an extra handset/cradle and belt clip for hands-free calling.

The DXAI8560-2 is extremely easy to use, thanks to the trilingual language support and time-saving options. First, the display clearly shows the name and number of the caller in call waiting, even while you're on the phone. (Note: to activate the caller ID features, you must first subscribe through your telephone company.) There's also an easy-to-see voicemail waiting indicator to help ensure that you don't miss an important message, backlit keypad for quick and easy dialing in all kinds of light conditions, and the option to view stored numbers during a call. Ten speed-dial locations save you even more time, and the "Find Handset" locator key immediately locates a lost handset. Finally, this desk or wall mountable phone is both headset and hearing aid compatible, and includes a convenient volume control.

About Uniden 5.8GHz phones
Uniden 5.8GHz phones operate on the higher end of the frequency spectrum, providing greater range and less interference than standard 2.4GHz phones. Uniden 5.8GHz digital FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology secures privacy while providing longer range and crystal clear sound. 5.8GHz frequencies often escape most wireless interference, including most Wi-Fi networks, resulting in a cleaner and clearer signal, and unlike many other 5.8GHz phones, Uniden TRU series phones both transmit and receive in 5.8GHz.

The DXAI8560-2 is backed by a one-year limited warranty.

3.0 out of 5 stars Basic features missing, and phone dies quickly, August 28, 2008

This review is from: Uniden DXAI8560-2 5.8 GHz Digital Caller ID Cordless Phone with One Extra Handset/Cradle (Office Product)
I have no problems with the performance of the phones. Sound quality and distance are fine.
What I did not realize until too late was:
1. You cannot use both phones at once. This is really surprising and annoying when two people want to be on a conversation.
2. There is no "mute" feature, neither when on handset nor on speakerphone. This is a significant problem when on a long conference call where you are mostly listening in.

It looks so much like my other Uniden cordless set (a two-line model) that I assumed it also had these same, basic features.

Update 1 month later: Both handsets now die at random during phone calls. I've just thrown the phones out. They are clearly inferior to other Uniden phones I've had. I've replaced this model with Uniden TRU9485.

I'd change the rating to one star, but apparently one cannot edit the star # in an existing review.

4.0 out of 5 stars great phones, September 16, 2008

I bought these phones to replace my 5 year old phone... it had issues as you will be able to assume. These phones were easy to set up, and have been great. Reception is good in every room of my home. The only down side is that reception is not great in the yard. Fine for everyday use, and easy to read caller id built in is a plus.
