2.0 out of 5 stars "I can't hear you!", March 19, 2009

I researched on the net for GE phones before buying this product. Most of the phones had very bad reviews over all. This one had 3 stars based on very few reviews. I bought it because it was inexpensive and worth try.

Pros- low price, good looking, many functions - answering system, digital, speakerphone, ...etc.

Cons - with volume set to the highest level (5), frequently could barely hear people talking. I had to ask people to please talk louder, which is never a good thing. After buying it, I found someone else who has the same phone. They told me that they had the same problem and remained unhappy with their purchase. I gave it to a relative who needed a phone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Design. Great Phone!, October 14, 2009

I don't really use a house phone that much, but decided I needed a replacement right after my Motorola went for a dive. After shopping around for about a day, I simply decided this one was it. Yes, I read the reviews. Still, I purchased it at my own risk and don't regret it. Phone looks awesome! Sound quality is great. Battery life is excellent. I left the handset off the base and used it moderately for three days. Could have probably gone longer, but didn't want to push it. Haven't really tried out all features, but the Goog-411 is great. Really like the ring tones as well. Distinct and plenty of them. I'll admit I chose this phone mainly based on the design and great value. I wanted the DataLink version, but didn't really like the design as much. I also checked out a few Uniden, Vtech, Panasonic, and Motorola units, but decided to give this one a try. Before my Motorola, I had a G.E. and really liked it. I'm glad I purchased another G.E. phone!

1.0 out of 5 stars Battery Life is F-----, June 10, 2009

By	dontbuyge (CO) - See all my reviews

I bought 4 of these from OD on a sale. The standby battery life on the phone I bought was 12 hrs. I called GE a day afeter I bought the phone and told them of the poor performance and they said they could not do anything as the battery is not covered by the warranty! So, I took the phone back and will not buy another GE phone again.
The phone itself worked well when it was not in the recharging station. The Google directory service was a nice feature that worked very well.
