Panasonic KX TG2670 2.4 GHz 1-Line Cordless Phone

Pros: range, digital answering machine with clear sound, good styling and design.
Cons: Digital speakerphone clips, low battery life, not expandable.

Saying goodbye to my old friend.
After almost a year of faithful service, it’s time to say farewell to my trusty old phone. We have had our differences such as the short battery cycle, and our share of problems such as the clipping...

Pros: small size, extremely long reception, high-tech looks, crystal clear sound under normal conditions
Cons: no hold or mute on handset, constantly conflicts with other 2.4GHz devices, flimsy antenna

I will admit up front I'm a sucker for high-tech gadgetry, something you may already know if you read my reviews. *smile* If it is a shiny bauble and has an on/off or power switch, chances are I will see if I can buy it, even if I don't have any need...

Pros: Chock full of features, great sound quality and range, cool looks, wall mountable
Cons: Tiny handset may be TOO small for some, expensive if you pay list price

My mission: find a good quality cordless phone for a new house my wife and I are building "in the country". Requirements from my wife: easy to use, wall mountable, built-in speakerphone, long range (so she can take it with her outside), decent answering...

Pros: Dual Speakerphone, 2.4 Ghz, caller list, NiMH batteries
Cons: Delay on pickup, slight buzz on memory viewing, rather short talk time

I'm a sucker for getting myself into a mindset where I need something, I was finding my old cordless phone to be getting a little short for batery life, and decided to get a newer phone.

I went on a research mission to find a phone that would...

Pros: Small, stylish, and attractive
Cons: Poor sound. Poor options. Poor TAD. Overpriced.

I was very disappointed with the Panasonic KX-TG2670N (with TAD) and its sister unit, the KX-TG2650N (without TAD). Having reviewed the feature lists of current cordless telephones and having had a number of acceptable Panasonic units, I eagerly chose...

Pros: Stylish design, mobile speakerphone, digital answering machine, caller id, 2.4Ghz, built in phonebook, lighted keypad
Cons: Limited ring options, no volume control for rings, answer machine system has it's faults

-Update: 06/22/01 -
Well, now that I've had more time to use this thing and get to know it's quirks, let me make a few additions to things I think you should know.

There are specific design flaws in the answering machine system. First of...

Pros: Crystal Clear, Very Long Range (in NYC!), Battery Life, Speakerphone in Handset, Headset Jack on Handset AND Base, pre-dialing, redial button
Cons: Not Waterproof or shockproof, no mute button on handset(must press intercom 2X), no telco VMI.

It seems that just about every year I buy a new phone for one reason or another. Oh, yeah I'm a phreakin geek, that's the main reason. Anyway, working for a phone company I have the added benefit of understanding exactly what makes a phone good or bad,...

Pros: Very cute all in one design, 2.7 GHz operation
Cons: delicate handset, static

This unit is my latest buy from Panasonic. I have used two other models of panasonic phones before and like their simple rugged design and excellent performance. Though I did not require another phone, this Elite phone from Panasonic grabbed my attention...

Pros: Awesome range, handset speakerphone,base speakerphone,caller ID in handset.
Cons: Complicated programming and operation. No mute or hold on handset. No second battery charger!

I bought the phone for $250.00 a little overpriced, but needed the handset speakerphone and wanted a higher quality phone than the V-tech competitor (see my opinion on this phone- coming soon). Handset speakerphones are great when your forced to...

Pros: Big on features and range
Cons: Below average sound quality

I suppose everything is relative. I thought this phone fell terribly short on true voice reproduction quality. Some reviewers thought it sounded great. Well, okay, compared to what?

The truth is, my 3 year old Uniden 900mhz digital spread...

Pros: Compact, stylish , nice LCD readout, fairly decent range, and most importantly...the $50 rebate!!!
Cons: If you don't have Caller ID service from telco, you lose some really cool features.

About this product and what I loved:

As far as the phone and answering machine goes, I have no problems with it.
This phone is very functional, aesthetically pleasing work of art and a real space saver. This phone is loaded with typical...

Pros: Looks great! Good reception and lots of features.
Cons: Battery life after two months is 15 minutes.

I got this phone as a gift for Christmas this year. It worked great for about a month. Reception was good, features worked well, and I had no major complaints. However, after six weeks, the battery life began to drop rapidly and now the battery will...

Pros: Small, Loaded with features
Cons: Battery life, battery life, battery life, lousy sound, HORRIBLE PANASONIC CUSTOMER SERVICE

I bought this phone in November of 2000. By February 2001, I could barely get 20 minutes of talk time out of the phone. I called Panasonic customer support and they said I had to ship it to their service center. I asked them just to send me a battery as...

Pros: Cool caller ID specific features, great range.
Cons: Weak battery, cheap microphone for answering machine outgoing message.

I've had this phone for a few years now. It was quite expensive (around $250) when I bought it, but it looked cool and seemed to have some nice features. You can set it up to ring differently, and have the screen light up a different color, when ...

Pros: Small, light weight, LONG range, handset speakerphone is GREAT.
Cons: BATTERY LIFE IS TERRIBLE, fades in and out, works 50% of the time!

I'm glad I found this phone for cheap on an auction site and didn't pay full price. About 50% of the time when I answer the phone it will be just static. I then have to hang up and hope that whoever it was will call back then I can answer on my sony...
