PanasonicExpandable Cordless Phone System with Amber Backlit Display – 2 Handsets – KX-TGC352B (Black)

LOVE IT!!!

Great product for fantastic price. In our current economy every cent counts, these cordless phone were life savers! I could afford to get them.

Nice cordless phone but wish that the light would remain on when charging. Allowing visual find in the dark!

Cell service knocked out by fires. We have magicjack but old cordless phone not working. So, I was without any phone for several days. Very impressed by prompt delivery despite heavy smoke everywhere.We've owned MANY cordless phones over the past 25+ years. The better ones were always Panasonic. A lot of these phones had more features than these new ones, but it turns out that I rarely used all the fancy features. And, I absolutely don't want the answering machine because Magicjack comes with excellent voice mail system.Some of the old phones cost upwards of $200, which would be around $400 in today's dollars -- and they had expensive proprietary batteries. Besides, the old ones only had one handset. We usually had two cordless phones in the house. The KX-TGC352 cost is next to nothing in comparison to the old ones.Since I use a variety of devices that use AA or AAA batteries, I have a good battery charger and a stash of rechargeable batteries. I replaced the provided 300 mAh batteries in one handset with 1000 mAh. I charged both handsets overnight and they still show full after an hour or so use this morning. Just to see how it goes, I won't put them back on the bases until they run low. I suspect I'll get 2 - 3 days with the stock batteries and at least a week with the 1000 mAh. I have no worries at all about batteries running low since, if necessary, I could easily switch handsets and I also have plenty of freshly charged AAA NiMH batteries I could swap. You can switch in the middle of the conversation by picking up the other phone and then turning off the first one.One problem was easily solved. DTMF tones were not recognized (while pressing number in response to voice prompts). Opened chat with magicjack and the tech knew exactly what to do... changed some setting on their end and it works fine now.I set up VM detect on the phone (menu #332). Now if VM is waiting, the screen says "New Voice Mail Press VM" with VM button appearing on screen. Pressing VM takes me straight to magicjack VM (set up number with menu#331).Set ringer tone (menu #161). There are 5 tones and 10 melodies to choose from. You can also choose to be silent (menu #238) or to be silent for a specific duration (menu #237) like maybe you don't want to hear the ring while you sleep from say 11pm to 6am.Another adjustment: the time displayed on the phone will automatically be set with an incoming call. This could be alright if you're in the Eastern zone in US, but I didn't like it shifting like that. So, manual set (menu #226) keeps it on Pacific time.I used to like having a headphone jack on the old phones, which I used some for conference calls. This phone doesn't have a headphone jack, but, frankly, if it had one, I would probably never use it. We generally use skype, Zoom, go-to-meeting, or other Internet application for conference calls.With the first handset, I setup speed dialing keys exactly the same as I have them on my cell phone. I haven't set any speed dialing on the second one, but it's there if I need it. The phone book is shared between the two handsets (if you add/change/delete an entry on one handset, it will show on the other one).There is a place for "handset name" but I don't know what that would be for. Each handset has a number (1 or 2) next to the charge indicator, so it's easy to tell which is which. The handsets appear identical except for these numbers.Some features like hold, call waiting, redial, and such are there and work like they have on previous models -- plus some useful newer features. In summary, this system is basic but has every feature I would ever use or want, and not a bunch of stuff I would never use.

Item as described and fast shipping and delivery. Would definitely recommend item and seller to other buyers A ++++

Very basic phone for the money. I had a higher level Panasonic group that just deteriorated over the years and I didn't want to spend a lot for a land line. Unlike the old one, this one does not verbally announce who or the number calling so you have to look at the receiver to see the number calling. This is only acceptable because most people I want to talk to do call my cell phone number.

Am very pleased with my purchase! Phones work great! Great for the money!

Great deal and good quality. Just miss the voice mail indicator light on my old phone.
