I have had NO problems with this unit whatsoever! The phone works great, with no static or other audio problems. People's voices come through loud and clear, with excellent audio quality, on both the phone itself and the answering machine/base unit. Range is excellent as well, and I have NO issues using the phone everywhere inside our 3 level house, and outside on the patio and in the driveway. Perhaps Uniden has made the latest version of this model to perform better than the older ones, given the one bad review below. Or maybe the reviewer was recieving external interference from other electronics in his house. In any case, this is a feature-rich, quality unit for an unheard of low price brand new! Buy this one with confidence.

I bought it as a replacement for the broken 5-years old IBM branded 2.4GHz cordless phone. It's is a total disappointment. The phone is placed in the same position as the old one. However, when making or receiving a call, all you can hear is noise and static. This really puzzled me, why a 5 years old phone can handle the RF interference much better?

I tried to move the base around, it does improve the quality of the call, but noise still comes up when I stand in front of windows or under a door frame. My 1 bedroom apartment room is not big at all, image what could happen when this phone is used in a house.

Bottom line - try to avoid it if you can.

i few years back i wanted to buy a good quality cordless phone. I went to the store and purchased a motorola for over 100 dollars. You dont always get what you pay for because that phone was a peice of crap. it never held the time correctly and i had to buy replacement baterries twice within only 3 years. Then the number pad wore out and the phone was not even usuable.
Today I received my uniden phone. it was about 1/4 the price of my previous motorola. the phone is very nice looking, comfortable, and very easy to setup. Probably the best instruction manual i have ever read for an electronic, and it is in english only. Thanks Uniden

This telephone functions flawlessly, great sound quality, excellent
answering device integrated, and easy to use.

The sound quality of this phone was unacceptable. Although the other party to the phone call could not hear it, my line suffered from static and other signal interference. Using the channel button on the phone did not resolve the issue, but switching to a different cordless phone fixed the problem. The answering machine worked as advertised, but without good sound quality, what's the point?

The best feature of this answering machine? It doesn't record junk phone calls. Otherwise, it is your run-of-the-mill answering machine. It answers calls and records messages. That is exactly what we wanted it to do and it does it.

We've used two high-end Panasonic phones over the last few years and they have been fantastic from a feature-set and quality viewpoint, but their reliability has been suspect. This Uniden phone is cheap, but is a great budget phone that we wholeheartedly recommend. It works well with a VOIP set-up.

The first week, I have put this phone to the test! And, it still works great! Great product for a reasonable price!
