Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
If you're missing calls because you can't hear the phone ring, and if you don't find much comfort in those annoying (and tiny) blinking lights that aren't much help from across the room, consider the Uniden EZI-996. The practical design helps solve a number of problems for users with minor sight or hearing challenges.
Two large red lights on the base indicate when the phone is ringing and when you have a voicemail message--and they're large enough to see more clearly from a distance. A belt clip is included, so you can keep the handset with you as you walk around the house. You can also keep your hearing aid connected and wear the handset comfortably at your waist. Separate controls adjust the ringer and the handset volume, and a handset indicator sound helps you locate the unit if you've lost it in the couch cushions. The keypad is backlit and has large buttons, making it easier to see when dialing.
The EZI-996 operates with a reliable 900 MHz transmission and tried-and-true analog technology. With subscription to service through your local phone company, the 30-station caller ID tracks your recent calls and returns them at the touch of a button. A separate 10-station memory stores your most frequently dialed numbers, with a one-touch dial for an emergency contact. Uniden includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

This phone is GREAT!! I wear glasses and have low vision, but do not need one of those giant BIG button phones, well this phone is superb, the buttons are big, but not too huge. heck, they look normal size to me, not so teeny-tiny like all the phone makers are making them nowadays lol. and that is what i was looking for. the 2nd plus, is that you can actually cleaarly read the caller i.d. area, it too, is larger. thirdly, as an extra bonus, the audio on the phone is adjustable. i'm not hard of hearing yet, i'm only 49, but do have one ear that is better than the other. well now i can adjust the volume to fit both ears comfortably. all in all, this is a superb phone and i heartily recommend it!

I recently purchased this phone for my 84 year-old grandmother who is a little hard of hearing and needed a cordless phone with amplified sound. We couldn't be more delighted with this model. It is well designed, easy to use, and the earpiece volume amplification feature works very nicely. The blinking LEDs make it easy to see when the phone rings, and the caller ID has large easy-to-read characters. A great investment for $50.

This cordless fone is just the one that I have been looking for -- for years. It is cordless, has a choice of 2 ringtones, each with a high/low setting -- or you can turn ringer off entirely. The best thing, though, is the light that flashes when the telephone rings; so you can have the ringer off and still see the flashing light. The base also flashes -- and it's not a tiny flash .. it's really visible from across the room. You can carry on a conversation without the annoying ring. I understand that this telephone is basically for the hearing or visually impaired, but believe me, anyone would be happy with it.
And -- it is caller ID capable, has a redial button, 10 number memory, emergency button, etc.
It is an exceptional product !!!!

beware!!
Bought a different Uniden model. After less than a year of use, both fully charged handsets would disconnect in mid-conversation every two minutes. Finally threw them away.
