Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The AT&T 9345 keeps your phone line crisp, thanks to 900 MHz transmission and 30-channel autoselect for the clearest connection. The three-line LCD works in conjunction with Caller ID/Call Waiting service (offered by most local phone companies) storing the names and numbers of the last 50 callers. The phone also displays phone numbers as you dial, helping you minimize embarrassing misdials to strangers, and features a "message waiting" indicator light to work in conjunction with voicemail services.

The 9345 features a 20-number memory for frequently dialed friends, a page/handset locator, and is headset and hearing aid compatible. Perhaps the nicest feature is that the ringer is programmable, letting you customize the sound. The phone is backed by a one-year warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Actually, a pretty good phone but doesn't meet my needs, November 20, 2001

By	"audiguy" (Huntsville, AL) - See all my reviews

Over the past 2 weeks, I've tested 12 different cordless phones, some analog, some 900MHz, some 2.4GHz, some DSS, incuding Panasonic, Sony, Uniden, etc. Even though I didn't ultimately choose the AT&T 9345, I was impressed with the comfortable styling, solid construction, clarity and decent range. People I called said my voice was very clear and distortion free. Earpiece volume is also good. The CID window is large and text is easily readable if you have good vision or wear glasses, but is too light in my opinion. Bolder text would make a big difference and the contrast can't be adjusted. Entering names & numbers into the 20-name memory is a breeze and accessing the stored info is easy and quick. One thing I didn't care for are the solid plastic indented keypad buttons that feel a bit strange and cheap.

The reason I didn't choose the 9345 is partly due to the indented keypad buttons, but mainly because conversations tend to drop out during interference. With slight interference or noise, parts of words or sentences would get cut off and I'd always have to ask people on the other end to repeat themselves. Keep in mind this was only outdoors at a reasonable distance from the house. Inside the house in any room, the 9345 was perfect. But we have a great back yard with a Koi pond, etc and I enjoy talking on the phone out there and don't want my conversations being chopped up.

I expect some intereference with any cordless phone, but don't want my conversations cut off in the process, and all the phones I tried intermittently cut off my conversations during interference (particularly digital) except two...the new GE 2.4GHz (analog) 27910GE1, and Sony analog 900MHz SPP-N1020. I ultimately chose the Sony SPP-N1020 because of its excellent, nearly interference-free performance with no drop-out even when 3 houses away from mine, as well as being well-designed, comfortable and having more features than the AT&T at about the same price.

1.0 out of 5 stars So Annoying, December 18, 2002

By	jenbird "book and classic movie fiend" (Havertown, PA) - See all my reviews

This is the second AT&T cordless phone w/caller ID that I've bought, and I think after this experience, I'm going to switch to a new brand. Here's why:

1. When I press the phone button to answer a call, it doesn't answer right away. I sit there saying "hello?" for a good 10-20 seconds every time before the connection is made. I checked; it's not the phone line.

2. The buttons are too small.

3. You can only store 10 numbers in memory (my previous model stored 50).

4. Erasing caller ID entries is more complicated then it needs to be. I don't want to have to press the buttons a million times.

5. Turning off the ringer used to be an option in the menu. Now you have to remember which number key it is.

All in all, this phone is much more trouble than it's worth.

2.0 out of 5 stars I can't hear you., March 24, 2004

By	Lorri "Mother of small children" (Grand Rapids, MI) - See all my reviews

I purchased this telephone after a series of Uniden phones that broke after any abuse. We own another AT&T phone that has worked fine for about 10 years so I thought this might be more durable. Indeed it may be more durable but that is not the problem.

My main issue with this phone is that even at the highest volume level I still cannot hear the person at the other end of the phone. Some other problems I have encountered is the programable telephone directory which saves your numbers in alphabetical order. This is fine in theory but if you call someone frequently and their last name begins with a Z, you will spend a lot of time scrolling through the directory. In addition, there does not appear to be any way to call someone back from caller ID if they are calling long distance. The caller ID displays the area code and number and there is no way to add a 1 to the number to return the call.

I think that I would have been better off buying a series of Uniden phones that I could have at least used.
