Will never buy another product from this company again. Have owned for 5 months and just threw in trash today.
Leaving a handset off the cradle for even a few minutes all but guarantees that the battery will die the next time it rings.I've considered buying new batteries so that I can give this phone another shot, but at $25 each, I might as well just buy a new phone (after doing more research this time). Actually talking on the phone reduced that time severely, and using the speaker phone cut the life down to about fifteen minutes.
I used to have two older VTech 900 MHz phones that I loved, so when my wife insisted that we re-establish our land-line, I went straight back to VTech. I bought this phone without doing any research because of my previous experiences with VTech products.
At their peak, these batteries would only allow the handsets to be away from the cradle for about four hours, and that was assuming that you didn't use the phone at all. Unfortunately, that was a mistake, as battery performance has rendered this phone almost useless just a year after we bought it.
I followed the factory recommendations when setting up the phone, installing each battery and then charging each handset for about a day before use. A year later, those times are reduced even further.
Besides, there's no guarantee that the new ones will perform any better than my old ones ever did.
The phone goes dead very quickly and needs a new battery after just a short time of owning it. Not worth a single penny that you pay for it.
No problem with battery life. I almost didn't buy this phone after readig the negative reviews.poor battery life, etc. I have had the phone for three months and it has performed flawlessly. It has lasted in excess of 2.5 hours on multiple occasions. Great design, intuitive use, a little pricey, but well worth the money.
Very clear and no interference. This is a great phone. I cant comment on the battery life because I keep the phone on the base all the time. Very stylish. Sound is excellent. But I've never had a problem. If you want a beautiful phone that works great and is easy to use, buy the Vtech.
