What is the best cordless phone to buy?

Question

i have had no luck with ge or at&t or panasonic,they were all 5.8

Answer 1

Roger V is correct. But I don't think it makes a lot of difference whether you buy a Panasonic or Uniden DECT 6.0 phone.  

Answer 2

The Panasonic DECT 6.0 is one of the best on the market....and with the new block caller, you just gotta love!! It works like a charm....you can get it at Walmarts and Target...!

I got a Uniden for my Packet8, because I got it for free with my VoiP service, and I use the Panasonic with my MagicJack

Answer 3

DECT 6.0 phones use the 1.9 Ghz band, which means you won't get interference from WiFi devices that operate on the 2.4 or 5.8 Ghz band.   And, with DECT 6.0 phones, your conversations are Encrypted between the handset and base unit to prevent snooping.

I use and like the Panasonic model KX-TG9333 DECT 6.0 cordless phone.

This phone can be programmed to "Call Block" specific phone numbers that you don't want to be bothered by. Block up to 20 separate numbers.

It also has a "Night Mode" that prevents the phone from ringing during late night hours. Just program in the times you don't want to be disturbed while sleeping. This will keep anyone from calling you at night when you are sleeping.

I think it is great that phone manufacturers are building these features into phones. Now we don't have to pay the phone company more money just to block annoying phone callers.

The KX-TG9333 also includes a built-in answering machine.

But if you want to skip the answering machine, then go for the KX-TG9313, which is a little cheaper.

And if you still want Call Block and Night Mode, but want to keep the price down to a minimum, then you may want to try the KX-TG9361B model, which is just a single handset unit, but no answering machine:
