Panasonic KX-TG4771B Dect_6.0 1-Handset 1-Line Landline Telephone

I needed a phone in my kitchen and decided to buy this Panasonic answering machine. This phone is great. Very easy to to install. One of the best features is the call block, I have no more annoying calls. The corded handset works during a power outage, Talking caller ID is loud and clear, easy to use, easy to see, amplified receiving volume, and you can program this phone to your preference. I can use the cordless phone in every room and outside with great clarity. It has wide display with white backlight, big buttons with backlight, side volume key and more features. My family is very happy with this product.

Purchased this phone/answering machine lightly used through an Amazon seller. It came with everything in the original box (plus a couple of extra cordless phones that work with the base).The KX-TG4771 is a CORDED DESK PHONE (with speaker phone)- It has a built in Answering machine and options to use phone company answering services as well.- On screen is caller ID, current time/date, whether the system is in use, and more.- One additional cordless (wireless) handset is in the basic pack and more can be added.- Additional handsets do not attach to the base phone, even for charging. They have their own chargers.- At least one cordless handset is needed to access some basic settings. Most notable of these is recording your own message for the answering maching.- The phone's corded handset (that is the part you pick up) has no buttons on it - like an old fashioned desk phone.I am using this system to replace an older Panasonic cordless desk phone/speaker phone/answering machine, model KX-TG2258.Comments:The new phone system is harder to setup and the instructions are slightly harder to figure out. For example, the instructions have [menu] but not until you press the # button will the phone cue you for the code. Unfortunately some basic things need a code, and some settings require the cordless handset. Bottom line is that it was not intuitive, but it wasn't that hard to figure out with a little trial and error and reading the instructions.The sound quality and range is much better than the older 2.4 GHz phone. Is the sound as good an old fashioned corded phone (when in good condition)? Not quite, but close. Also the old phones can lose quality too if the carbon gets packed. The cordless so far has not dropped out in parts of my house where the old cordless had.The cord on the handset has uses a smaller plug than the typical module phone. If you want to extend it, make sure the plugs on the longer wire will work.Adding additional handsets requires "registering" the new handsets to the base. It's pretty easy once you find the instructions under "Special Programming".Being a corded phone, Panasonic designed it so the basic phone works in case of power loss. Of course you may need an old fashioned paper phone book to look up the phone numbers of the power company or your neighbors, but I'm sure you have one stowed somewhere.. right?Corded is also good if you want a bit more security against evesdropping or accidental cross talk.Overall seems to be a good choice if you want a decent desk/speaker phone with answering machine and cordless option. Box states made in Malaysia except charger which is made in China. See pictures.

This phone is replacing my KX-TG5776 and feels less solid. Buttons are huge and unit has talking caler id plus screen showing caller id on base unit and handset. I expect to be happy with this set up. The base unit is in my bedroom and the handset is in the main room allowing me to hear the talking caller ID in both rooms. Great option for visually impaired or those looking for a large keyboard. Handset has seperate base station allowing it to be in different room than base station. Base unit also has full key pad and speaker phone.The solid Panasonic KX-TS105B Integrated Business Corded Phone - http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-KX-TS105B-Integrated-Business-Corded/dp/B000090WE9/ref=sr_1_sc_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1337724829&sr=1-1-spell will stay on my desk by my computer. It feels more solid, has good sound quality, and has worked very well as a landline phone. It was purchased for its ability to work in a power outage and replaced a simple GE coreded phone that finally died.

This answering system never worked out of the box. Could make outgoing calls fine. Set phone up per manual and Panasonic.com/help website. Incoming calls would just ring & ring and then go to my phone system voice mail. Caller ID would only say "Florida call" with no number display when I was trying to get the machine to answer. My old Uniden which I was trying to replace would ID as "Florida call" and display the phone #. I repacked the phone and returned it to Amazon. Don't waste your money or time on this phone system.

I've had the Panasonic KX-TG4771B phone for a while, and as I've had occasion to use it more and more, I find I like it less and less. The corded part seems to work all right, but the cordless handset isn't much. It 'works,' but according to those with whom I'm speaking, it works poorly. Poor sound quality when the person at the other end can hear me at all. If I switch to the corded phone, everything seems fine. Hmm. Think I'll be switching phones when the opportunity presents itself. In the meantime, going to move the corded phone to the studio, and maybe put the cordless handset in the recycling bin. If the corded phone ends up being as problematic as the cordless, I'll report back.Thanks for reading. 10/6/17

An excellent phone, with good sound quality and a very useful adjustable volume feature for both the cordless handset (earpiece) and the answering machine (playback). No noticeable interference on the wireless connection. Does exactly what it's supposed to do, no muss, no fuss. Strongly recommended!One cautionary note: The Caller ID feature on this entire series of Panasonic phones frequently puts up a message on the screen reading 'Missed Call.' Be aware that this message does *not* necessarily mean you've missed a call! It will display this message *any* time the phone has rung and you didn't pick up while it was actually ringing - including calls that have left a message on the answering machine, hang-up calls, and some others, too. This is not a serious problem; the 'Missed Call' message is easily erased, and you can pretty much ignore it anyway. It's just a slight glitch in the software.
