[New] VTech VG131-11 DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone - Bluetooth Connection, Blue-White Display, Big Buttons, Full Duplex, Caller ID, Easy Wall Mount, 1000ft Range (Black)

if you still have a landline-these are great you can see the overside numbers and the hand free speaker is realy good..they make sets with more phones in kit..paul

The ring is loud, but it is OK ~ the answering machine of the unit works like you work at Bell Telephone - that is what I want in a land line - the answering machine......

Good !😌

Great phone works wonderful long lasting battery

Functional but you would think that after so many years of those types of products being mature, the navigation would be more intuitive.Also critically, the display viewing angle is very narrow and oriented downward. So when you have the handset in hand, it is OK if you orient it at 45 degrees in front of you, but when it is on its stand, it is impossible to read the display. So to see if you have messages or missed calls, you can't just glance at the handset, you actually have to pick up the handset for the display to be readable... Very disappointing.Also there is no blinking red indicator when you have a voicemail.So all in all, indeed functional, but usability has not been thought through...

Bueno unexito tiene hasta bluetooth

I bought this VTech answering system from Amazon to replace my old General Electric 29869 unit, which finally broke down in 2019 after serving me well for about twenty years. It was a mistake.I had no intention of using the handset – the VTech VA17241BK was to be used on a split line with a Panasonic KX-TS880 landline phone. My only interests in it were to be able to screen incoming phone calls and record those that I missed.I had no major problem with the way the VA17241BK screened my incoming calls – its speaker audio was clear enough to understand. My only complaint in this regard is that it didn't quite go loud enough.However, I had major problems with the way the VA17241BK played back recorded calls. The audio quality of the built-in memory on the unit is very poor. Examples: a caller left a message for me with a phone number to call her back at, but one of the digits in it was impossible to understand clearly. A different caller left me a different message where her name sounded like it was “Brock”, but when I spoke to her later it was actually “Brooke.” This is the kind of message recording audio quality you can expect from the VA17241BK.I discovered this major defect too late to be able to return my VA17241BK to Amazon for a refund – I had mistakenly thought the substandard audio quality was due to either poor landline phone connections or wireless signals from callers that very briefly dropped out of receiving range. A quick phone call from another landline number very close to my own finally showed me where the real problem was: the VA17241BK itself.There was a time when audio memory was very limited (and very expensive) in solid-state technology, but that was long ago. If General Electric could do it right back in 1999 with their 29869 phone answering system (and they did), why can’t VTech do it right with theirs in 2019? What good is an answering machine if you can’t understand at least part of the messages its callers leave on it?Summary: buy the VTech VA17241BK at your own risk.

Excelente calidad
