Poor outdoor range.

byvalereee Oct 24, 2006
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Corded base set, no-jack hand set. Works in a wireless-network setting.
Cons Zero range outside the house.
Recommended it? No

I've been using the Uniden TRU8888 for about six months now and though it was pricey and works fine as long as I'm inside my house, I'm ready to try something else. I literally cannot step one foot outside any of my doors without affecting the quality of the signal. As long as I'm indoors, I'm... Read full review »

Wonderful home office phone

bybmills313 Nov 4, 2004
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great usability and features...expandable base unit, speakerphone
Cons A little pricey
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this phone about 3 months ago for my new home office and I have no regrets. I wanted a base unit with a cordless so I could wander around the house if necessary. Another of my must-have items was speakerphone, so this phone met all the requirements! It was a little more pricey than other... Read full review »

Surprisingly good. Solved all of my problems...almost.

Pros Great: design, looks, display, functions, answering system, sound, speaker and handset.
Cons Appears to be incompatible with Plantronics amplified headset (M12). And is $170...
Recommended it? Yes

I was having issues with my Panasonic 2.4 GHz interfering with my wireless network (not uncommon), so I decided it was time to upgrade. I needed a 5.8 GHz phone with a corded base (one reason is for a Plantronics headset), answering system, and cordless handset options.
The 5.8 GHz TRU8888 was... Read full review »

I recently purchased a GE-25880GE3 5.8GHz Corded/Cordless w/ Answering System Phone from Circuit City. Within a month, I returned it because it was a cheap phone with poor sound quality and terrible design. (See my other review for details.) I only spent $50 on the GE, but I feel I got what I paid...

Not terribly impressed

byebway Apr 23, 2008
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Call quality seems pretty good.
Cons Poor interface layout Returning out of state calls difficult
Recommended it? No

We have used this phone system for about 2 years in our home office. One annoying trait is the phone redial feature, after receiving a call from a different area code you cannot simple hit redial to return the call. The phone will not add the 1 in front of the area code for you. so you have to... Read full review »

Home office phone, best I have seen out there for what it is

Recommended it? Yes

I have been looking for a combo phone to replace my current 2.4 Sony that stopped working.

After much searching I found this combo phone. The size is right, the price is right for what I will use it for, and I like that you can have up to 10 cordless handsets.

As far as I can... Read full review »

Battery Life

byadkinson Jul 5, 2005

Pros Ringer tones, Speakers in the hand sets, Call notes
Cons Battery life
Recommended it? Yes

I have had a number of Uniden cordless phones but this set has the poorest battery life of any of my previous phones. I am very disappointed in this one feature. The other features of the phone perform as explained and the speaker in the hand set is great. Read full review »

Like the phone but answering machine just wouldn't work

bycv73 Jan 27, 2005
1 Helpfuls 2 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great features and voice clarity
Cons See above. Just couldn't get the answering machine to work.
Recommended it? No

This will be short and sweet. I agree with the review by bmills. However although all the features were great I could never get the answering machine to accept calls. It would announce one word "hello" and then just shut off without taking an incoming message.
I call Uniden and they trouble... Read full review »
