I had two of these exact phone and had the same problem over and over agin there is static like you would not believe and the noise is nasty just gros and after you are on the phone it is so loud you cany here what the other person is saying so it there would have been a 0stars i would have picked zero If i were you I would go with Panisonic that is the phone I have now and I dont have a bit of trouble.

I thought this was a cute phone. I was delighted that it would be easy to find because of the changeable face plates and light-up antenna and faceplate.After charging it the recommended amount of time, and a few successful uses, it has gone on the blink. Within less then four minutes of conversation, my side of the reception begins to get static and then washes out totally. Selecting the channel scan button only makes it beep uncontrollably, and the only way to hang up is to re-cradle the phone in the base unit.I have investigated the website's very few options for troubleshooting and have not found this issue addressed. Calling support for help is out of the question as this is our only phone. We are returning it tonight.I really wish it worked, because I love everything else about it.

I'm not a teenager, but I bought this phone because of the different ring tone choices (I thought it would be fun). Well, I was right about the rings, that's pretty neat. Everything about this phone lives up to it's reputation EXCEPT reception. After a few seconds of having the phone "On" it's very noisy with lots of static. When I push the "Off" button to hang up, that won't work. I have to place the phone into the base to get it to hang up. It's a shame that the reception stinks on this phone because everything else about it works great.However, it's going back to the store today.

Note this is an ANALOG phone, despite being on the 2.5GHz spectrum, and its signal can be picked up by other wireless analog devices, like wireless headphone or speaker systems

I have two toddlers begging for my attention, but I am so disappointed with this phone I want to take two seconds to warn others about this phone's poor quality. The phone looked like fun, but after charging the battery as recommended, then plugging it in, the reception was immediately staticy. I could hardly hear the other person and it was annoying to the point I wanted to throw the thing in the garbage. Changing the channels did nothing to improve it. The fun rings the phone advertises have a cheap electronic sound, too. I would not buy this phone.

I LOVED this phone in concept. I loved being able to assign rings to individual callers. I know... how lazy have we gotten that we want an even simpler step than checking the Caller ID. Still... it seemed like a really great feature. However, the first few times I used the phone, I lost the signal every single time. I tried to be patient and search out new channels but each time, there would be TONS of static (through which I found out later, the caller could hear me shouting HELLO? HELLO?) and then eventually I would get disconnected altogether. I returned the phone and, because I still really liked it in theory, I exchanged the phone for a duplicate, thinking maybe I'd just been unlucky and gotten a "lemon". So back home, reprogram, call and pfft. Static galore. I just wouldn't trust it enough to ever recommend it to someone. I went from loving this phone to really hating this phone.
