Customer Reviews

Does the basics well
Pros: Ergonomic. Good keypad (proper spacing between keys is increasingly rare, it makes dialling so much easier). The stand has a shallow recess that the phone sits in, so it doesn't fall off its perch at the slightest knock. Great sound quality. Excellent battery life. Very effective speakerphone. Shared phonebook. Takes standard AAA NiMH batteries, so it won't cost much to fix when it no longer holds a charge.

Cons: No SMS. Slightly basic-feeling user interface, in common with some other Panasonic products.

For me the pros outweigh the cons. I bought these after returning some disappointing BT Verve 450 handsets. They looked great and had lots of neat features, but I felt they were flimsy, and they had poor audio quality. What Panasonic give you is the basics done well.

What it says on the box
Product arrived promptly, was easy to set up with a clear manual. Sound quality on the handsets is excellent - slightly better than on the answer machine. All in all a good product.

Stand-by problem.
I quite like these phone. There's a great feature whereby you can copy the contacts list at the press of a button from one phone to the others - saving you the bother of re-entering them on all the phones.
However, I've found an issue which I can't resolve. The phone will randomly power-down (i.e. turn themselves off) if they're out of the charging units. They should stay powered up for up to 7 days but mine can turn themselves off in as little as 30 mins.
I've been in touch with Panasonic and they accept this isn't right. Amazon, as usual, have been fantastic and changed the phones but the replacement set are just the same.
I wouldn't have bought these if I'd known they were going to do this.
