Negative Positive
Title: Super clear, power hungry
Review: After doing tons of research on my next phone, I decided on the VTech. No phone seems to do it all for all people, I just cared what worked for me. I don't care about the shared phonebook deal. I just want clear calls, some handset customizing and decent battery life. I got most of those. The calls are exceptionally clear. No hiss or echo. It's amazing coming from my old uniden 5.8. I have the handsets spread around the house. I have one in the bedroom with the ring volume set to off. That was an important feature. The battery life isn't very good. They say you should get 100 hours standby, buy I just get 10 hours. So if you lose a handset for more than 10 hours, hitting the locate handset button on the base won't help you. The handset is nice and the lighted buttons are a plus. The answering machine works just fine, but you can't check the messages from the handsets. Kind of a bummer on that. But, as a clear cordless phone, it works great. I'm using it on Vonage too.
