Panasonic DECT 6.0 Black Digital Cordless Extra Handset for TG9390 Series Phones (KX-TGA939T) Reviews
Our older AT&T system was failing, and replacement handsets were no longer available...even though the base was working well. Had previously had a siemens unit and hated it.
This phone just misses on a few things which would have made it great -- sharing phonebooks with base AND handsets would be great. The fact that the base unit has different ringtones than the handsets is also odd.
However, performance is good, call quality acceptable, nice large buttons and ease of use make this a system
we hope to have for a long time. And yes, I bought some extra handsets this time
When we needed to replace our 2.0 Panasonic Cordless, I did not hesitate to look at another of their phones. I like the idea that I can add other phones to the system at my convenience. It is nice that you can view callers, if you have caller-ID and remove the numbers from every phone at once. (The old one had you remove them from each individual phone and would not charge correctly if you didn't do this.) The phonebook is simple to use, once you have learned the setup. I also like the ability to categorize phone numbers and have ring tones for each number or category.
These are great phones (purchased the base with 2 extension sets). All Panasonic phones I have had have been great -- battery life, range, sound quality, etc. You can't go wrong with this system.
The phone works. The phone customer support is better than OK (they will troubleshoot with you, even when it is clear the problem lies in your or AT&T/TimeWarner/YourPhoneCompany's mistakes. They take the time to help you track down the problem and fix it. Even though it is not their fault.)
1 major problem makes all the difference.
The stupid ring! Most phones will ring five times, each ring lasting for about a second, and a 1 1/2 second silence before the next ring. But these stupid things must have a design flaw. When a call comes through, one, sometimes two of the handsets (I have 5) keeps going. What do I mean? The ring starts....and doesn't stop. The ring will last for about 8 seconds. The ring lasts during the majority of the time before the answering machine picks up. It is grating and disruptive, and intermittent. Not a good purchase. I have another multi-handset set from panasonic (a different model) and it does the same thing. This is not a fluke. How likely is it that one consumer purchases 2 phone sets (over 2 years apart in purchase date, one from costco, the other from amazon) and they both exhibit the same malfunction? Suffice it to say...I am a panasonic customer no more.

I've had this system for a little over a month, which I bought to use in my home office. It's easy to install both the basic system and the extra handsets. Generally, it's a high-quality home office system having everything I expected, except for some diminishment in sound quality and some limitations on the Bluetooth connectivity.
A nice feature is the Bluetooth connectivity, which permits moving one's phone book wirelessly from a cell phone and allows connection to a Bluetooth headset from the base station. The range of the DECT 6.0 wireless system is quite good, while the Bluetooth connectivity is limited to the standard approximate 10 Meter Bluetooth specification--addition of the extended Bluetooth connectivity showing up in motorcycle intercom systems (500 Meter line-of-sight) would be a nice feature allowing equal choice to the use of wired headsets on the handsets or the Bluetooth headset. The Bluetooth headset will answer automatically, but the phone must be changed manually from the speaker to the headset when making a call from the base station, which can be an inconvenience. I'd like to see the full Bluetooth connectivity available on most current cell phones couple with the extended distance connection, which would just about do away with wired headsets. A nice feature of the Bluetooth connection is that it is compatible with the new Bluetooth headsets allowing connection to two phones at the same time, allowing one's cell phone and this phone system to be answered using the same headset.
One problem I'm having is the sound level in the handsets, which is not high enough. Even the highest volume setting, in the handset itself and when using a high-quality wired headset, is too low for some conversations when the other person's connection is not the best or when speaking softly. This is not a phone for the hard of hearing.
