Panasonic Cordless Phone with Advanced Call Block, One-Ring Scam Alert, and 2-Way Recording with Answering Machine, 4 Handsets – KX-TGF944B (Black)

Very nice phone with lots of features
I bought this 5 handset phone to replace a similar, but very old, Panasonic 5 handset phone. I was happy with the old phone, but some of the old handsets started to fail (no screen or keytone) and could not be remedied with new batteries or other troubleshooting steps. So far, I’m very happy with this replacement.It was easy to install and setup. Of course, the 99 page manual is a bit daunting, but it is actually comprehensive and understandable. Keep it in a safe place since you may need to refer to it.Another reviewer mentioned they didn’t like the wall mount. It does stick out a bit more than my old phone, but it’s fine. I don’t even notice the difference at this point.One initial oddity was that when an incoming call came in, I could hear a ring in the bedroom, but not elsewhere. The Panasonic phones rang on the second ring. Turns out that is a built in feature. It’s supposed to delay on the first ring in order to screen “one ring” calls. It was an old conventional landline phone that rang on the first ring. I turned off the first ring block so all phones now ring on the first ring. It wasn’t a big deal, just an oddity.I can’t say for sure whether the 14,000 call block feature actually works. But I don’t get many robocalls anyway. Some calls are identified by my provider as “spam risk”, but I never answer those calls. I may start adding them to the “call block” feature, although that may get tedious.One annoyance: When listening to a recorded message on a handset (as opposed to the base unit), there is no “erase” option like on my old handsets. When the message is playing you have to hit “pause” and then “menu.” That makes no sense. Fortunately, there is a key shortcut – *4 – you can hit to quickly erase the message.I have not used the cell-link feature. I’m not sure I see a need to answer my cell using a handset. However, I may try it out at a later time.Overall, I’m very happy with this Panasonic phone system and hope it lasts as long as my prior Panasonic phone.

A Great Product
I’ve had great success with every product I used with the Panasonic brand, and this is no exception.I replaced a cordless system from AT&T that had poor sound, features sometimes didn’t work, that was hard to use. Finally, something didn’t work right on it, and I just threw it into the trash and bought this one.When I was setting it up, and just plugged in the handsets, each of them, all by itself, talked to the base unit and programmed the connection. And it was ready to go! With the AT&T phones, I had to put each phone into the base unit and program it.My wife isn’t a tech enthusiast, and she keeps praising the selection of the Panasonic phones because of the superior sound, ease of use and even better appearance.All that I would wish for that this setup doesn’t have is the ability to connect more handsets–I’d like to have 8 handsets. AT&T appears to be the only cordless phones that handle more than 6. However, I prefer all the advantages of this superior product, accepting the limitation of 6 handsets.

Facilidad de configurar.

Desafortunadamente, me llegó este kit incompleto, lo tuve que devolver. Por la marca y tal como observé los aparatos, es muy probable que el funcionamiento sea muy satisfactorio pero, para mí, no lo fue tanto al estar incompleto.
