Panasonic Cordless Phone with Advanced Call Block, Link2Cell Bluetooth, One-Ring Scam Alert, and 2-Way Recording, Answering Machine, 4 Handsets - KX-TGF944B (Black)

This is the best cordless phone system I have ever had. I wanted to use my old land line number, but I've been getting at least two dozen spam calls a day. This new system has an auto block feature that, if activated, requires unknown callers to press the number 1 before they are connected. The only way I know someone has called is by going thru indicated missed calls, because spam calls never ring. But, any number in your phonebook bypasses the autoblock. The system was simple to set up including the answering system. Speed dial was more interesting. I could find speed dial in the settings list, but it wasn't clear how to add one, but once you put in the phone number you want to add using the speed dial setting, you merely hold a keypad number down for 3 or 4 seconds, which will add the number. I also added a sixth handset which once it was charged, pretty well registered itself with a single press of the locator button on the base unit. Finally, volume and battery life are great, I use speaker phone a lot and it just doesn't seem to wear down. All in all, Panasonic makes a great product.

The landline phone system we had in our home worked fine however the problem was that we were constantly bombarded each day with Robo Calls and all kinds advertising and junk spam phone call that were just never ending and very annoying to say the least. I did quite a bit of research on Amazon on the new generation of phones that included anti spam technology and ultimately decided up this Panasonic phone system after going through all the product reviews. I also liked the fact that it was made by Panasonic. The phone system I was replacing was also Panasonic and had served us well for many years so I have faith in the brand. Setup and installation of the system was straight forward and easy enough and within 30 minutes I had the system up and running and set up. I did have to read the instructions in order to set up my preferred preferences (voice message, ring volume, spam settings, etc) but I found the instructions very clear and easy to follow. This phone allows you to sync it with your cellular phones, which is a really nice option, but I have no interest in this feature at the present time so I didn't bother with that, however I did read the instructions on how to do it and it didn't appear to be to complicated. I may utilize the cell phone feature later.. I found the system to be visually attractive and of quality construction and the best part of all is that from the minute I activated the system the spam phone calls immediately stopped. It was like a miracle We would receive no less that a dozen such annoying spam phone calls each day, sometimes two dozen. It's been 2 days now and we have not received even 1 such annoying call. My wife and I are thrilled to say the least and if a spam call does slip through somehow all we have to do is simply press the "Block" call button and the phone and that number will never be able to call us again. The system comes pre-programmed with an internal list of known spam callers and you can add your own numbers to that list if you need to simply by hitting the "Block" button. Doesn't get any easier than that. This is really a great system, I love it. Its spam blocking technology really works well and the amount of other features that the phone has is amazing. If you're looking to replace your older phone system in order to avoid those annoying spam calls just order this system.... you will be very happy you did.

This phone has a lot of nice features, some of which are a little difficult to set up. I especially love the "Block Call" feature as we were getting many spam colors before we set this up. It works flawlessly. The voice announcing who is calling is pretty robotic, and I don't know (yet) if I can change that. I do recommend the phones, with one caution: you must read the instruction booklet before setting up and after when you want to use different functions

I have been using these Panasonic systems for years. Eventually, like everything that gets old, my previous system needed to be updated. I tried a V-tech system that looked to have all the same feature but cost less. I just replaced that system with this Panasonic as there is no substitute for the quality and extensive features, many of which, are not capabilities of the V-tech system. While they both support BT connectivity with 2 cell phones, there are significant differences and the Panasonic works consistently and with a fuller suite of functions. I was able to import my address book from my cell phone, and call blocking functions are better and easier to use. Sound quality is comparable and voicemail features similar. The V-tech, while indicating BT connection with the cell phone, did not work consistently, and is one of the main reasons for needing that capability - to consistently make and receive cell phone calls via this home system with its 5 handsets.

Like everyone, I have been plagued with spam calls. Since I received this system two months ago, I haven't received a single unwanted call! It is amazing! I haven't tried the manual blocking feature because I haven't received a call that I have wanted to block. The phone itself, is of high quality, with the exception of the speaker on the base station, which is tinny sounding. That is okay because I use the handsets for speakerphone calls. They are all loud and clear. Be sure to download the complete manual from Panasonic. It has features that are not revealed in the quick start guide.

I would like to give this phone a "3+" star rating if I could. The phone itself has many nice features included but it also has some "issues" you will have to deal with. It is easy to set up and looks good on a desk in an office. Be aware that the manual that comes with it IS NOT complete. It does not offer all the information you need about the phone. If you want the REAL instruction/set-up manual go to the Panasonic help site and they will give you a free extensive instruction manual. This is the complete manual that really is helpful. The screens are bright and easy to see as well as the numbers. The buttons all "work" well with soft touch features. One BIG PROBLEM is that the phone WILL ring out of sequence with your other phones you have in your home. I did ALL of the troubleshooting offered by Panasonic to no avail to correct this problem. Also, I contacted my telephone service provider and they told me that some phones like these have this issue and really nothing could be done to correct it (the phone company did check all my service and lines and found everything in working order on their "end"). The speaker on the base unit works well but voices sound sort on "tin-like" and there is no way to adjust the tone of the speaker; so this is another issue you might just have to live with. I did call friends and ask them how I sounded from my end and they all told me I sounded fine. If you can "live with" the out of sequence ringing this phone should work well for you. I decided to keep the phone because of the other features and because I have purchased Panasonic phones for many years and they overall work quite well.

If I were to describe a recent purchase as "LOVE IT" this might be the ONE! The phone works very well. I have no issues with sound quality. I love the call block. These days, I am getting calls from all the prior users of this number and those marketers calling this number for whatever reason. After blocking some thirty or so calls, the marketers are down to a trickle..

Needed an updated cordless phone system with 2 extensions that could handle the ton of scam calls we get. 38 calls a day not unusual, even though we screened and haven't picked up for 2 years. Car warranty anyone? I don't even own that car anymore. I LOVE the one ring hangup, auto check of its large inventory of scam call numbers, screen calling where automated robo calls are rejected, and the ease of blocking a number that may get thru. Those don't ring thru. We can now answer our phone and know it's likely a real person who actually needs to reach us. It's been blissfully quiet. YAY! The Cons: With the sound turned all the way up, it's still slightly softer to hear someone speaking. Getting to the messages and missed calls - noted on the base but not as easy to get to as on our old phone - and there's no blinking light to alert us. Like all computers nowadays, things get complicated and this phone is no different. Many, many features - but so much is going on, the simple stuff that should be easy to get to is no longer simple. Just a few thoughts but we are trainable (I hope) and this phone has worked wonders to remove the constant ringing of scam/robo calls.

FUNCIONAN MUY BIEN, SE HABLA Y ESCUCHA MUY CLARO

Excelente articulo panasonic es una marca de confianza vale cada peso que pague por el articulo

Facilidad de configurar.

Ya conocía la marca y es muy buena, sobre todo que en particular buscaba el ID con voz, es muy práctico para no contestar llamadas desconocidas y solo atender a las registradas, resulta muy seguro también poder bloquear números desconocidos

Me gustó el diseño,la memoria para guardar 100 contactos todo me gustó menos que cuando llaman dice el nombre y solo tiene un sonido no hay más
