About Uniden 5.8GHz phones
Uniden 5.8GHz phones operate on the higher end of the frequency spectrum, providing greater range and less interference than standard 2.4GHz phones. Uniden 5.8GHz digital FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology secures privacy while providing longer range and crystal clear sound. 5.8GHz frequencies often escape most wireless interference, including most Wi-Fi networks, resulting in a cleaner and clearer signal, and unlike many other 5.8GHz phones, Uniden TRU series phones both transmit and receive in 5.8GHz.
It works, price is right
Installed fine, works out of the box, no issues, everything is fine. Its a phone. It makes and receives phone calls just like every other phone. I have yet to ever find a "perfect" cordless phone, especially one that lasts a long time. After a while, buttons stop working, or the battery dies, and it doesn't seem to matter if they are expensive or cheap. So I treat them like a disposable item. This thing is less than twenty bucks, if it lasts me a year or so or better yet 2 years, then great, when it breaks I'll toss it and get another one. The phone I replaced (which I got for $10 on sale and lasted about 2 years) was still working OK, but the battery died. Guess what? It cost almost as much for a replacement battery as this phone cost brand new! So I got this one, and like I said, it works fine. Note I do not have DSL like the other reviewer.
Great Little Phone!
I am quite pleased with this phone. It is loud and reception is clear even taking it outside. Functions are faily easy to use, however it only allows for storage of 10 phone numbers. Also, once again Amazon's shipping was phenomenally quick.
Uniden 5.8 GHZ Caller ID cordless phone
Very good phone-- my family has been using it for about two months and we're happy with it. It is connected as a digital phone to our cable modem, and is in our family room next to two computers. We have not experienced any interference with our wireless router (which is about 4 feet away from the phone base). The previous 900mhz phone sometimes had interference issues. Reception is clear, and we have not had any problems using this phone anywhere in the house (upstairs or downstairs). We only experienced one problem-- about two weeks after installation the phone was cutting voices in and out, but switching to another channel cleared this up. Overall a good choice for the money.
