Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Uniden TRU9485-2 5.8 GHz Digital Cordless Answering System with Dual Keypad and Extra Handset
Customer Review: Great phone. Great speakerphone. Talked for five hours on one handset.
Summary: 5 Stars
I work at home, and attend lots of conference calls. I was on a conference call recently for five hours on one handset, and the battery meter only lost one bar (of three). (I used a headset the whole time, the handset was only a few inches from the base unit, and the whole thing is only two weeks old, so all of these may've contributed to the long talk time / low battery use. But regardless, that's pretty good.)
The speaker phone works quite well. I've used it on most of my "meetings" for the past two weeks and had no complaints (of my own or from other meeting participants). You can easily switch from speaker to handset and back again.
I also like how you can assign rings to specific calling numbers. I've set up a convention where "friends and family" get one ring, work people get another ring, and everyone else gets a third. I used to have two phone numbers that rang to the same line, but with different rings -- this is almost as good, and better in some ways.
This phone has other features that I haven't used yet, but sound kind of nifty, like the "room monitor" feature (where a handset can act as a baby room monitor), and the "walkie talkie" mode where the handsets talk to each other directly. This is independent of the base unit -- it doesn't even have to be plugged in.
This is my 2nd Uniden phone, and I've liked both of them.
Customer Review: I love this phone!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
First, the phone came on time and once I got it charged I was very happy with it. I have had other phones that cost more but have less features. This phone is perfect! The speaker phone on both the handset and the base is great, crisp, and clear. The intercom feature is great, My fiance' and I communicate from bedroom to kitchen through the inercom so that I can bring what ever he needs from the kitchen without yelling "what do you need from the kitchen". The Do not disturb feature works great; it just makes the phone/voicemail 100% silent so that we can sleep without interruption (we work 3rd shift so we need our sleep during the day). The ringers are lovely, I like the fact that we can pick specific ringers for certain people. Oh yeah, and the best thing about this phone in comparison to our old Vtech phone is that with this phone if we receive a voice mail we don't have to hear the voice mail indicator beep until we get the message. The old Vtech phone we had used to get a voice mail and it would beep every 5 seconds until you listened to the voice mail. This phone does not make any noise unless I let it. Most of the time we keep the phone on Do not disturb due to telemarketers. I really love this phone and I didn't spend much money on it because it is a refurb!!!!Customer Review: Best phone I've ever owned
Summary: 5 Stars
This is quite simply the best cordless phone I've ever owned. For that matter, it rivals all of the corded phones I've ever owned, too. Uniden did their homework on this model, and it begs the question "why did it take so long for such a good phone to be released?" The sound clarity of the system is as good as it gets. Both the base station and the handsets (comes with 2) have speakerphones that are also super clear. Check messages on the base or on the handset where you can control all the normal answering machine functions (handset has a message waiting light). Controls are all well thought out, build quality is good, and the system overall is just amazing. The only possible criticism for this phone is that it won't work in a power outage (not even the base speakerphone, but this is not a surprise). And, if the power does fail, the clock will be reset to 12:00AM (flashing) until you either set the clock or use one of the handsets to reconnect (it will re-sync the time). Other than that, this is an amazing phone, and I say "BUY IT!"Customer Review: Over a Year and still dependable!

Select ringtones
...assign different rings to different numbers
...glow in the dark buttons are a plus to dial by TV light at night
...get your answering machine message from any phone by the touch of a button
...and play these messages for others by passing the receiver to them....my boyfriend never checks
....very small light flashes on each phone extension when you have a voicemail message
...speaker phone from each handheld option...great for when companies put you on hold...leaves your handsfree while you wait
...walkie talkie option from each handheld is nice
...All this for a little over a hundred was worth it for me...and I got 2 more extensions ...at a 2 for one sale at Officemax for $30...they plug into any regular electrical outlet...so I have extensions in rooms I never had them in before...really nice to have one in the garage and basement....no more running for the phone and can call these intercom style ...to talk to boyfriend in garage while he's tinkering around...
Customer Review: GREAT CORDLESS TELEPHONES
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the Uniden Digital Cordless System to replace my aging cordless phone that would no longer hold a charge in the replacement batteries. This system was a Refurbished Unit and since the price was right for the features you get, I bought it.
The phone came in the same box as you would receive if you bought it retail, along with all the cords and batteries etc. This telephone has something for everyone. I like the different ring tones you get. I was so impressed with the telephone that I bought another one to give to my Father In Law who has a hearing problem and wears a hearing aid. He used my phone one day and commented on how well he could hear through the ear piece.
The Model Number TRU9485 has extra hand sets you can buy and program into the main
Keypad.
This is Not the first time I bought a refurbished item on Amazon and I have never had a problem with other goods purchased that were Refurbished. In some ways, if its coming from the manufacturer it's just like new.
