Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of AT&T 1855 Corded Telephone with Digital Answering System and Speakerphone
Customer Review: Decent Phone
Summary: 4 Stars
It's a good set of features at a good price. I wanted speakerphone, caller id, and answering machine. Has all 3. If I want to get picky it would be: the machine's computerized voice is not a great voice. The power light above the play button is a little big I don't see why the power on light has to be so big. For some reason those things bugged me a little from giving it a perfect review. On a plus side having a mute button with speakerphone is nice. The unit is not too big on a desk smaller than some other units. The number buttons are nice feel, they are good size but not too big, and flat. So overall good value.Customer Review: Only one problem
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall, this is a very good phone with many solid features. My only complaint is that there is no way to adjust the volume for the message alert. Because of the poor location of the phone jack in my kitchen, I have to put this phone in the master bedroom upstairs. Unlike my last AT&T phone, which allowed me to adjust the volume of the message alert, this one has a very quiet beep, and the volume can't be adjusted.
If you plan to put this phone in an out-of-the-way location, you may want to consider a different phone. Otherwise, you will have to visually check the phone to see if you have messages.
Customer Review: A very good Phone/ Answering Machine - with wires.
Summary: 4 Stars
I have 14 rooms and at least 14 phones. Many are wireless, hence battery powered, and hence always going dead for lack of charging. This phone has a wired handset, and a small "Brick" power supply that plugs into the wall. It never goes dead (unless the power goes out). It records very clear messages, has caller ID, a speaker phone, and 8 (I think) volume levels. It may not be 2.4 gigahertz, but it is a great phone, of the type that is disappearing. I bought 2 more, as spares. I would give it 5 stars except for the manual. This phone has so many options it needs a book with an index, not a few sheets of paper.Customer Review: good voice quality, one missing feature
Summary: 4 Stars
After my old Panasonic speaker phone died (from spilling a beer on the keys), I bought one locally. I ended up returning it because the speaker volume was too low. The reviews for this one looked good, so I bought one.
The speaker volume for this phone is more than adequate, and the mic is sensative enough that I can use the phone from 4 or 5 feet away. I find the caller ID very useful. My only wish is that there was a hold button. The panasonic had that, and it was very useful for times when I needed to go to a different floor to pass a call on to someone else in my family.
Customer Review: Good corded phone/ ans. machine
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this phone for my mother to replace her older AT&T corded phone w/ ans. machine. She lives in a small town that doesn't offer voicemail and this is the perfect solution. The phone works great, good volume, and easy to set up. I like her to have a corded phone along with her cordless in case the power goes out....this makes a phone always available and another plus is that you always know where the phone is, not like a cordless that goes where you go and sometimes stays there even if you don't. All in all, she tells me she loves it and the voice quality is superb.
