Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Uniden DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone with Caller ID and Two Extra Handsets (DECT1560-3)

Customer Review: Beware
Summary: 1 Stars

Very, very disappointing. I've used Uniden products for many years, but this will be my last Uniden product. Problems:

1. Very flimsy and cheaply made. See the other reviews.

2. Ni-Cad batteries. Really, in this day and age? They could not have spent another few cents and given their customers a decent NiMH battery? Since this unit is designed to stay in the charger, I expect the NiCad batteries to fail in a matter of months, as they don't like being used in that manner. A replacement set of decent NiMH batteries are going to cost around $20, about half the price of the system.

3. You can't even pick up the handset without activating some useless "feature" that you don't need, don't want and will not use. Then you have to look in the nearly useless manual to try to turn off whatever got turned on. For example, the "New message" LED on all handsets blink all the time. If you follow the procedure to turn them off, they start again in a few minutes. We don't have any messages waiting. (Took 20 minutes of my time experimenting to fix this. Bah!) Ditto for other stupid functions.

4. Related to the above, there is no "stop" or "reset" button, so when the phone goes to some weird function that you didn't want (usually by just picking it up), you have to fumble around to get it to stop and go into the "make and damned call" mode. Poor human interface design.

5. Too many useless functions, pitiful manual. I don't need a new hobby, I need a new phone!

I could go on. Look elsewhere.

Description of Uniden DECT 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone with Caller ID and Two Extra Handsets (DECT1560-3)

The DECT1560-3 cordless phone by Uniden is packed with time-saving features that help you better manage your calls. It features a large display screen and orange backlit keys which make it a snap to dial the correct number or access features, even in low-light conditions. The phonebook feature stores up to 70 names with an alphabetical search, unique ringers you can assign to specific calling parties and an option to transfer either a single listing or the entire phonebook. The bilingual menus in both English and Spanish guide you through every step so you can take full advantage of the 10 full hours of talk time per battery charge. The DECT1560-3 includes two extra handsets and chargers/cradles. About DECT Technology: Advanced DECT 6.0 technology, or Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications, operates on the newly released 1.9 GHz frequency band that was recently allocated to support cordless telephony. Uniden DECT 6.0 incorporates unique "listen before transmit" technology that avoids interference with many household products, such as baby monitors, microwaves and WiFi (which operate on frequencies like 2.4 GHz). As a result, DECT phones offer consumers enhanced voice clarity and crystal clear digital sound quality. DECT 6.0 technology also offers higher security and voice protection, as well as a longer battery and battery standby life than existing 2.4 GHZ or 5.8 GHz phones.
