Style of phone and Caller ID call back features are very nice. Range of coverage is very poor. If the range was more than the same room or the next room,it would be a great phone. I would say that is the biggest drawback. Previous owner had the voice mail full with personal info. I purchased because Uniden is usually a good brand product, but not at all impressed with this models performance. All the other features of this phone is very useful and good.
Sorry I have had another Uniden similar phone set for years and had no problems setting it up, however this one seems so comple than I gave up. Fortunately other one works still just after years of us of just 2 phones they both had the cover to the antennae fall off so I have protruding wire to watch out for. I will keep this set and will call on my IT grandsons for help , or a savvy friend with better eyesight than I have for small print manual! My sister in Denver I found out also buys Uniden sets from EBay as other Phones don’t have headset jacks for wired inexpensive earbuds! We both have stayed with Uniden older models for years! Unfortunately the model I wanted doesn’t seem to be available any longer!
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I bought my first Uniden DXAI5588-2 two years ago at a retail store, and I have nothing but praise for it. It served two purposes: 1) to put a phone in my room where there was no jack, and 2) the base phone had a built-in answering machine, so the base phone replaced the old phone AND the separate answering unit. The sound has always been clear, more than enough range, even outside (though my house IS only 1260 sf). When the regular phone in my back room died, I sought out the same unit which I found on Ebay. Though I didn't need the answering machine on this set, I just don't use it. The base phone replaced the dead phone, and we used the additional handset in my son's room which also lacked a phone jack. I'm amazed at the reviewers who experienced poor quality reception; can we be talking about the same unit? Every feature of the phone and call recorder works very well. I'd buy this brand again in a heartbeat.Read full review
It was listed with speaker phone handsets which was my reason to purchase this phone...Although it was a mistake with the listing as it does not have speaker phone built into the handsets..All other features work great...However I didn't test it for range nor wireless connection interference of which were additional reasons for me to decide to make this purchase...It would most likely be perfect for me if it had speaker phone capabilities...As briefly as I used it, it had clear reception and I was told that I sounded clear to those I talked to..I believe Uniden to be the best on the market and am unable to compare it to other name brands due to only experiencing Uniden products
I bought the Uniden 5.8Ghz phones because of past experiences with Uniden cordless phones. I have to say though, my old 2.4ghz was cleared in the back yard than these are and that is totally unexpected as the 5.8Ghz are supposed to be longer range and clearer. Nothing has changed, the base is in the same place etc. Overall, great phones but the range is just more limited than you would expect from them.
