Handset sound level is good. The display is not back lit nor tilt able so placement is important. Good unit. Works with 2.5 headsets.
It is headed for the trash. The sound is only so-so and the answering machine has never been very clear. It is not nearly as good as other panasonic phones I've owned in the past. Now it bounces an echo back at anyone trying to leave a message. I'm back on Amazon shopping for a new phone/answering machine and when I saw this listing I decided to a write a quick review. I've had this phone for a year or so. A few months ago it stopped playing any outgoing message but the prerecorded default.
I can always count on Panasonic to make a great product andlive by their warrantee.Don't hesitate to purchase this phone.I'm glad I didn't.
The Caller Id, 3 Speed Dial buttons and phone book built into the unit are useful too. I needed a corded telephone that would not die on me during the call for want of a charge (like most cell phones or cordless telephones). I have not heard anyone complain of a feedback during the calls or that they could not hear me well. When you have to delete over 10 numbers, that can be a little annoying. The other one was that when you have the headset on and you hang up, it seems to come back on after a few seconds. This telephone was the best priced product I could find online. I use the KX-TCA60 headset with this phone that allows me to use both hands on my computer at the same time.
I don't use it in Speaker phone mode a lot, but from the few times I did, it worked well.Two minor issues that I can grin and bear with. I actually end up disconnecting the headset and then hanging up to make sure I am completely off the call.All in all, I have found this a great value and just what I needed for my situation. I work from home a lot and when I do, I am on voice conferences a lot with people from 3-4 timezones, that too for hours at a stretch. I have been using this for a couple of months now and have not had any problems. When deleting older numbers from the Caller Id memory, it takes sometime (3-4 seconds) to delete each entry.
This is a great phone, good audio, in and out, phone book works well, headset jack works well. A lighted window would be nice.
