Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Uniden TRU9485-3 5.8 GHz Digital Cordless Answering System with Dual Keypad and 2 Extra HandsetsCustomer Review: This one FINALLY got it right!. Summary: 5 Stars
After purchasing several unsatisfactory brand-name cordless phone sets, this one FINALLY got it right. Sound is clear outgoing, incoming, on speaker, AND on message playback (it also has a hearing-aide compatible mode which we have not tried). All handsets are updated automatically without the need to enter phonebook numbers (or date and time) separately. Each handset is capable of retrieving messages, interrupiting incoming screened calls, and storing (or deleting) caller IDs. Every handset has a speaker phone mode, a belt clip, and the option of it's own ringtone. Very convenient. Handsets can be put into baby monitor mode. The system is expandable. Answering machine flashes an amber antennae light on each set until the message is played back, and playback does not remove the number notation that there is a message on the phone (like our last set did!)
Customer Review: Great phones for a great price Summary: 5 Stars
These phones did everything they set out to do, and they can take a beating. Never had a problem with reception, even outside, where you're pretty far from the base. The speaker function is great. The only thing I would have liked is if the intercom feature allowed you to speak directly to the other room, rather than making the phone ring in that room, and forcing someone to actually pick up. But this is a fairly minor point, and just a personal preference.
As far as taking a beating, my 1 year old has taken care of testing it in this department, and so far so good. Handsets have been dropped, thrown, and scrapped in the ground, without any negative effects on performance.
For the price, you really can't beat it. It's my first Uniden, but I can tell you it's far better than my previous Sony and Vtech phones.
Customer Review: works great Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this phone from seller abcliquidators1 on ebay. I got it refurbished, and it cost me fifty. Great deal. The base plus all 3 phones work and look great. The display is big and bright; the displays and buttons light-up when you press a button or if the phone rings. It has really nice features. The sound quality (hearing and speaking) is excellent. The speakerphone (and intercom) feature on all phones and the base is really nice. I bought the phone because of all the good reviews on amazon. I also got a 2-year extended warranty from squaretrade for seven. The phone does NOT interfere with my wireless devices. Although I'm sure I could find some petty faults about the phone, I have no legitimate complaints. I would purchase this item again.
Customer Review: Excellent phone system. Summary: 5 Stars
No need to repeat everything that others have said, but in general I concur. Sound quality and range are excellent. It would have been nice to copy the entire phone directory from the base to the satellite phones as opposed to doing it entry by entry. The short back light time can be annoying, and you do have to erase Caller ID info from each phone, which is rather inconvenient. The one-button dial feature for nine numbers is a plus, especially since many other brands don't offer it. Despite its few drawbacks, this is a great phone for the money. A "PS" in response to another review: if being able to cradle a phone between your shoulder and face is important, good luck with virtually all modern phones. Not a convincing criterion.
Customer Review: Excellent phone system! Summary: 5 Stars
I just love my new Uniden Tru9485-3 phone system. It has so many features that my old system didn't have. The Do Not Disturb feature is very cool. Just press one button and all of the ringers shut off all phones. 100 name address book is nice too. Also, very nice that you only have to enter all of the names once. They can be transferred to other handsets. The fancy ring tones are pretty cool too. The only thing that I can say that I dislike is that the message indicator light on the base is not illuminated. No big deal, but my other system's was. You can check your messages from any handset. No need to go to the base unit. Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase. I know you will be too.
