About VTech IS8151-5 Super Long Range 5 Handset DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone for Home
Overall Feedback:
73% positive
78% were satisfied with the design; however, 22% found it unappealing
I find the intercom function of this cordless-telephone very awkward and non-intuitive. It requires multiple button pushes and scrolling through menus. I am dissatisfied with the design of the cordless-telephone.
87% found the call management features helpful
The call blocking system works by eliminating calls based on your phonebook. It took a while to program the numbers I didn't want blocked, but the system is working as promised.
I have not received any robodial or solicitation thanks to the great call block function.
The cordless telephone integrates with cell phones and has a good answering machine feature.
I have a phone that announces the caller's name, which has saved me from ignoring important calls.

80% appreciated the sound quality ; nevertheless, 20% encountered distortion
The sound quality is clear with good volume control. I appreciate the extra phone over my prior set.
The speaker voice for announcing calls sounds very tinny and fake.
After a couple of months, the background noise increased and the sound quality became terrible.
The microphone for the speaker phone is awful and the sound quality decreases to the point where I have to repeat myself. Additionally, at about 300 feet, the phone will begin to randomly drop calls.
69% were satisfied with the battery life, although 31% found it drained quickly
For conference calls, long times on hold, or trying to get help from tech support, this phone is not good.
Some batteries are completely dead while others last about 30 minutes of use.
The phone's battery life is very poor. It dies the same day even when I use it for only an hour or two.
78% liked the range; however, 22% experienced limitations
The phone has good range, but it only works when functioning properly.
I got the phone for its range and it works great when I take it outside while working alone.
I have a phone with long range, but it is almost unusable.
Even if I am 2 feet away from the base station, the phone still gets disconnected. The range has nothing to do with the disconnection issue.
