Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Uniden DWX2077 Handset meets JIS7 waterproof specifications, which means it can be submersed in up to one meter (3.28 feet) of water for 30 minutes without damage. It even floats! The DWX2077 also utilizes DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) 6.0 technology for interference free reception. Expandable up to six handsets, the DWX2077 offers caller ID capabilities and loads of other advanced features that make it easy to keep in touch whether you're inside your house or out floating in the pool.

Headset-compatible for hands-free calling, the DWX2077 delivers user-friendly operation that makes it a pleasure to make and receive calls. The backlit display and lighted keypad let you quickly dial numbers and access options, even in low-light conditions. Four-way conferencing, a Directlink two-way radio feature and call screening options give you the ability to improve communication without the need for a large, bulky unit. Additionally, the DWX2077 boasts both a 100-number phonebook and 100-number caller ID memory to help save you time hunting for important numbers. Finally, you can choose among 20 ring tone options and identify who's calling before picking up the phone.

About DECT Technology
Advanced DECT 6.0 technology, or Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications, operates on the newly released 1.9 GHz frequency band that was recently allocated to support cordless telephony. Uniden DECT 6.0 incorporates unique "listen before transmit" technology that avoids interference with many household products, such as baby monitors, microwaves and WiFi (which operate on frequencies like 2.4 GHz). As a result, DECT phones offer consumers enhanced voice clarity and crystal clear digital sound quality. DECT 6.0 technology also offers higher security and voice protection, as well as a longer battery and battery standby life than existing 2.4 GHZ or 5.8 GHz phones.

The DWX2077 is backed by a one-year limited warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Industrial Strength Phone, August 20, 2008

This review is from: Uniden WXI2077 DECT 6.0 Digital Waterproof Cordless Phone with Caller ID (Office Product)

Many cordless phones on the market today feel like slippery little bars of soap. Not this one. It feels solid and indestructible. It's even covered in black rubber to make it easier to hold. The sound quality is crystal clear, and the maximum volume setting is extraordinarily loud. It doesn't have a lot of gimmicky features: there are only a few simple ringtones, for example. But it is a pleasure to use, and it will probably last until landlines go the way of the telegraph.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very solid, clear sound and... waterproof?, December 1, 2008

This review is from: Uniden WXI2077 DECT 6.0 Digital Waterproof Cordless Phone with Caller ID (Office Product)

This is a very solid phone... It is heavier than my last cordless, but I see that as a plus. Easy and very comfortable to hold, easy to use, very precise buttons... and you CAN use it tucked between your ear and shoulder (or I can, anyway). Bought two and I am very happy... will probably buy accessory handsets in future. We have no need for the waterproof aspects, but the quality really shows, even when out of the pool. It is not as strikingly orange-looking as it seems in the photos online, but at the same time it is not a "blend in" desk accessory (a plus for our office).

This review is from: Uniden WXI2077 DECT 6.0 Digital Waterproof Cordless Phone with Caller ID (Office Product)

I bought 5 of these phones. 4 were given away as gifts and I kept one for myself. We all love our Uniden WXI2077 DECT 6.0 Digital Waterproof Cordless Phone with Caller ID!.

**PLEASE NOTE:I did give this 5 stars but somehow when the rating came out it was 4.

Pro's:
+Replaced by a newer model so you can probably find them for less if you look. I bought mine for $15 each!
+Easy to hold; black rubber on sides, top and around the speaker on the back of the phone.
+Orange LCD is easy to see, as are the orange backlighted numbers.
+Stores up to 100 phone numbers
+Submersible aka: Waterproof! Take it in the pool, hot tub, shower, bath tub or out in a rain storm.
+Has speakerphone capabilities
+Can act as a walkie talkie if you have a second handset in your home.
+Excellent sound quality
+Easy to setup
+Clear LCD with date, time and length of call function
+Orange and black color of phone makes it easy to find when you set it down outside or in the garage.
+Excellent range on this cordless phone.
+Caller-id function if you have that service with your phone company.

Con's:
-Safety orange color of phone seems to be the only color it comes in.
-Registering the phone can be tricky so read the manual and take your time.
-No answering machine included.
-Very masculine looking...which could be a + or a - depending upon your gender.

A good solid, waterproof cordless phone for your home, patio or garage.

Don't hesitate to buy one to enjoy the submersible feature either. You never know when you may need to make a call from 6' down in the pool!
