Panasonic Dect 6.0 Dark Grey Cordless Phone with Answering Machine (KX-TG6431M) Review
Available @ Amazon CHECK PRICES!
I really like the panasonics cordless phone quality, most other competitors do not get very consistantly good reviews so this is a good product.
I do wish Id of looked on amazon and found I couldve gotten this model with two handsets for like 16 bucks more though. To buy one seperate on amazon its like 37 bucks…sigh oh well my error.
My one gripe will affect those who dont want to hear noise (call screening while sleeping) turning off call screening is a two step odd process part of which must be done while the call is coming in or you have to call yourself to do it! Dumb why no button for it! (there is a volume button but doesnt stop call screening volume per book).
It stays off after process (volume of call screening) unless someone in house uses the actual charger base answering machine unit to check messages, then it resets. If youre not aware someone used the machine instead of picking up calls from handset you get sound. I live in a small space so this is a pain if you sleep days.
and a minor gripe: once you listen to a message, but do not want to delete, there is no reminder light that it is still there. No biggie but dumb.
I do like the unit but if it was made a bit differently Id be happier.
I did notice the volume on phone set at high isnt real loud (on some calls only) which is fine for me but if youre hearing impaired it could be an issue, my parents have a panny cordless very similiar to this one (new) and dad has to use speaker phone to hear (which runs battery down faster). (the volume on hand set is just too low compared to old analog cordless).
It does what it says and sounds fine no buzz. The phone handset volume is not simple to turn back on (no shortcut ringer on off button), you have to access the menu to turn ringer back on. If you forget ….you dont hear calls.
It does blink on its end and on display, when rings though.
I did not find a problem erasing messagings as one review mentioned I dont think its hard and is one touch.
Inspite of my gripes, It really is a nice system and you can purchase extra handsets later, and easily purchase new batteries which arent expensive at this time. “aa” nimh. Though you must charge them in phone unit charger or the phone wont recognize the full battery.
You can retrieve messages from handset and it blinks to notify you have messages, it even has some sort of synching for voice mail if you use that.
It also has multiple caller id functions (I dont use them) but its nice to have the options for some. Inc’d various assigned rings to incoming calls if you have caller id. And it will audibly announce the caller is you have caller i.d.
It has a nice phone book function, holds long numbers and spaces.
If It wears badly I will return to update 
Overall I do recc’d it

Customer Reviews
Panasonic Cordless Review – Big Sky Establishments –
This is the second one of these I have purchased – one has 3 handsets and a fancier base with speaker and one has 4 handsets. They are very reliable and easy to use. I like the fact that each person can program their handset as they wish. They could be a little sturdier. One of our base sets got killed off by a large power surge. All the rest of the equipment on that group was still good though, so just replacing that base wasn’t too bad.
On the second purchase, we were upgrading because our old wireless phones interfered with our wireless internet connections. We have had no problem with the 6.0 phones in that regard.
Great basic phone – EGS757 – Portsmouth, VA
If you’re looking for a basic phone that’s easy to use, this is for you. The sound is crystal clear, the buttons are large, and the answering machine works well. It has a small base so it’s great for small spaces, which is the primary reason I purchased it.

THIS IS A NEW VERSION OF THE SAME MODEL. IT IS GREAT
SMALLER AND STILL HAS ALL THE SAME FEATURES. I HIGHLY
RECOMMEND THIS ONE.
