You can select among eight ring tones and 12 musical ringers, while the supplied audio patch cord allows you to record custom ring tones. An intercom feature lets you communicate with other handsets on the same system, and a handset-to-handset call transfer feature lets you route incoming calls to another handset location. The redial function lets you dial any of the last 10 outgoing calls, while an any-key answer feature allows you to answer a call by pressing any button on the phone.
The NiMH battery has an eight-hour talk time, with a standby battery life of up to five days. A handset speakerphone and headset compatibility also provide convenient methods of hands-free communication. The i5803 comes backed with a one-year warranty.

This review is from: VTech i5803 Accessory Handset for i5800-Series Expandable Phones (Office Product) I can't tell you about service or support because I never had a problem with my V-Tech phones and have been a loyal customer for 15 years.
What I love about this phone. 1) The handset uses regular rechargible AA batteries. No more searching for the right type of battery. 2) larger than previous models I have owned. As a result I drop it less, and I lose it less often. 3) Easy set up I never touched the manual 4) Flashing LED in handset when I have a message. You would not believe how many times this has helped me find the phone in a dark room at the end of the day. I used to own 4-5 handsets because they kept getting misplaced. 5) Price.

This review is from: VTech i5803 Accessory Handset for i5800-Series Expandable Phones (Office Product) When my batteries started to fade away in my GE 900 MHz I decided it was time to start researching new cordless phones. I knew I wanted cordless 5.4mhz phones because I have a wireless home computer network plus I knew I wanted an expandable phone system.

Now I know the designers want them look like cell phones but this is a home phone and I won't be putting it in my pockets. I also found that many of the cordless phones looked and felt cheap. Finally I came across the VTech i5800 cordless phone series, it met my two biggest shopping points and more. I purchased the VTech i5800 cordless phone base unit that features an answering machine with three mail boxes and a very nice pre-recorded voice message, a color LCD menu screen that works just like a cell phone with a phonebook, call log, tools, ring tones, etc..

I replaced it with two more handsets. I have two complaints with these units - you can not upload or transmit your directory list and this list is limited to 50 numbers. Other than that, and the failure (it would no longer recognize the base station i.d.), these work for me. |
