I did some research on DECT 6.0 before using the GE cordless phones. The system communicates in the 1.9 GHz frequency band, so the DECT 6.0 refers to software version 6.0, rather than 6 GHz. One of the features of DECT 6.0 systems is that it allows remote stations to communicate with the base station via a wireless interface. This means that when you expand up to 6 handsets, only the base station has to be wired to a RJ-11 modular port for VoIP or a standard telephone line. The other 5 handsets can communicate with one another on a wireless digital network.
Pros: -The GE 28821FE2 is one of the first cordless phones that I have seen come equipped from the factory with Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery packs. This is surely the sign that a manufacturer FINALLY understands that Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) battery packs are a failure. I have gone through several cordless phone systems that used NiCd packs and they would begin to discharge rapidly and suffer from the memory...Read more 39 of 39 people found the following review helpful:  Great potential cut short by annoying flaws and design shortcomings., By This review is from: GE 28821FE2 Dect 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone and Digital Answering System Featuring GOOG-411 with 2 Handsets (Office Product) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) We really wanted to love these phones, and for the first week or so, we did. Google 411 is a wonderful feature, and very intuitive; even if you aren't sure of the correct name of a business, it comes up with most likely possibilities and allows you to easily find what you're looking for via voice commands. We tried to trick and confuse it, and found it highly reliable and effective. The handsets are light weight, and the belt clip is very tight and secure. Not only does the screen state that you have voice mail, but a light also blinks on the handset and base. You can set up special ring tones for certain people (once they've been added to your phone book), which is a great option (more on this below) to audibly identify regular callers. The volume range for both the ringer and speaker is adequate.
The interface isn't wonderful. Adding numbers to the phone book is challenging, there's no easy way to add a number of someone who calls in. You have to go through 4...Read more 17 of 17 people found the following review helpful:  Good sound quality, poor user interface, By This review is from: GE 28821FE2 Dect 6.0 Digital Cordless Phone and Digital Answering System Featuring GOOG-411 with 2 Handsets (Office Product) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) I wanted to really like this phone... and judging on pure-sound (can I hear the other party, can they hear me), it does just fine.
Unfortunately, the phone is significantly hobbled by seemingly-readily-apparent usability issues. Given this, I was really torn between giving it three, rather than four stars, but in the end the reasonable ergonomic comfort + the excellent range and good sound quality pushed it over to a four in my book. *** ABOUT MY USAGE I typically receive and make calls from and to numbers in the U.S. I don't subscribe to caller ID, nor do I often interrupt callers with call-waiting or attempt three-way calls. My calling patterns, then, are pretty basic :) In my home, I have a wireless network, microwave, TV with several remotes, etc. Haven't found anything to interfere with the phone's signal. *** ABOUT THE PHONE'S USABILITY It's poor, IMHO, and frustratingly so, to the point I have to ask... did...Read more |
