Product Description The 5.8 GHz VTech ip5850 dual handset system offers a wealth of telephony features:three-mailbox answering system, caller ID, speakerphone, intercom, 50-location phonebook, mute, volume control, page feature, and much more. With 5.8 GHz phone technology, you get ideal performance when it comes to clarity, range, and security. You're also on a much less trafficked area of the bandwidth than either the 2.4 GHz or 900 MHz frequencies. Customer Reviews Good phones I bought this set just over a year ago (Jan 2005) and I've been very satisfied with it. It was important to me to have a 5.8GHz phone system, since I have a wireless network at 2.4, and I like the shared phonebooks between handsets so I don't worry about which is hung up where. Signal has been clear throughout our (fairly small) house and in the front and back yards, and battery life has been completely satisfactory. The answering machine has also met expectations. Battery problem. After 7 months of moderate to low use, the handsets both stopped working at the same time. If I take out the batteries and and reinsert them,the handset works again for an hour or a day, depending on I don't know what. It's not that the batteries are dead, they may work for a day or 2, then stop again. I replaced the recharageable batteries for $30...but the same thing kept happening. The phone still rings and records messages, but 80% of the time when I try to answer a call, the handset is dead. The only other problem with this phone-answerer is that the messages are much less clear than my 16 year old Panasonic tape answering machine! It has many other helpful features and seems a bargin for the price, but is no use to me if the handsets don't work. I'm looking for a more reliable system. Awesome! I got this phone system about a month ago. So far, it is working very well! It took the place of a cheap GE 5.8 GHz phone. The clarity is incredible on these VTech phones. I have a large yard, and the handset-to-hanset feature is great when I'm out doing yardwork, and my wife needs to talk to me. I would definitely recommend this set.
