Product Description

The DECT2180-2 utilizes DECT technology with a frequency range of 1.9 GHz, which means you won't have to worry about this phone interfering with your Wi-Fi networks. In addition you'll enjoy maximum voice security and the clearest voice reception, so there's no struggling to hear or be heard while talking on the phone. The DECT2180-2 includes a digital answering machine with handset access and an impressive 14-minute recording time, so you'll never miss an important message. The user friendly design of the DECT2180-2 offers menu prompts in both English and Spanish, while the blue backlit keypad makes it a snap to enter phone numbers or access features in any light setting. The large, easy-to-read LCD screen clearly displays the date, time, extension and other data and is also compatible with the caller-ID and call-waiting display. The 70 phone book locations and 30-number caller ID history help ensure that you'll never need to hunt for a number again. Enjoy the three-party conferencing option, great for talking to friends and family members. The DECT2180-2 truly adapts to your needs by being expandable to up to six handsets and by offering time-saving features. First, the high visibility message waiting indicator lets you immediately know when someone has left a message. And when you're on the phone and the call waiting beeps, you won't have to wait to find out who's calling--the LCD clearly displays the name and number of the caller in call waiting. (Note: to activate this feature, you must subscribe through your telephone company.) Use the handset as a speakerphone, transfer calls between handsets and personalize ringers so you'll know who's on the line before you pick up the phone.

Very good sound quality. The speaker is also very loud and yet clear; the other side can't tell you are on speaker. I like 2 things most: you can add entries to one handset and then sync it with the other one, and all your phonebook goes to the other one. (2) conference call. All handsets can join a single call. You can mute one handset and listen to the conversation, while the other person is talking on the other handset without your interruption (we used this to handle a customer service problem). You can also customize ring tones for specific numbers, so that if you get a call from that specific ID, it plays your tone; however, unlike cellphones, you can't upload your own ring tone. Reception, battery no problem. Answering machine sets up in few seconds. The only downside of the product is that, keys look like toy phones! Not a big deal, but I used to have Panasonic years ago, keys very made of soft-rubbery yet transparent material, nice looking and nice touch - I liked that more.

I love the "blocking" feature. It allows you to block the incoming call from an alumni office or some other non-profit. Too much hassle to try and get the local telephone company to do it.

I've only had this phone for about a month, but so far I really like it. What is so great for me is the icon showing the battery strength, no more guessing or having it "die" on me. The only problem I'm having so far is when I designate a certain ring for a certain person. That part doesn't seem to work. But for me it doesn't really matter. Reception is good, there doesn't seem to be static or interference. Nice size etc.
