(More customer reviews)I went to Target to get another KX-TG2216 2.4GHz phone to have in the house when I came across this new KX-TG5050 5.8GHz phone and the price wasn't too bad, so I bought one.
First of all I've been very happy with the quality of the KX-TG2216 so I was a little leary of experimenting with another model. Let me just say that I'm very happy and impressed with the features of this new 5.8GHz phone. They have taken all of the features of the 2.4GHz phone I have and expanded them.
The one feature that I wish all phones would have is the directory matching feature, and now Panasonic seems to have included this on these new phones.....kudo's Panasonic. The way this works is that when you receive a call and if the number of the person is calling is matched in you directory that's how it's displayed on the phone. In other words if you have your mother in your phone book as "MOM" this is how it will show on the display. Panasonic calls this feature "Personalized Name Display".
On to the display. The new display is not only larger but the black lettering against the orange background makes to easier viewing.
The sound quality is very good with plenty of volume. The listening volume on the handset as well as the speakerphone are loud enough for us folks who are middle aged and only hear half of what people are saying to us.
There is now one touch soft buttons for both voicemail and the internal phone directory. Thanks Panasonic for now using a nickle netal hydride battery. When I first saw this battery I thought is was a lithium because of it's small size but it turns out to be nickle metal hydride with 830 milli amps output and seems to work very good so far.
Physically the phone itself is the same size as my 2.4GHz but Panasonic has shortened the antenna by about 1 1/2" inches. Speaking of the antenna, when you have voicemail a light built into the top flashes slowly indicating someone has left you voicemail. Also the light flashes rapidly when you receive a call. This would be nice if you chose to turn the ringer off but still want to visually know when someone is calling.
All in all I'm very happy with this phone and I would definitely give it a:
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
