| This phone is totally awesome! Great display, lots of bells and whistles. If you have ever owned a cordless phone before, and the battery dies, so you open the back of the phone only to find a "battery pack". You look every where and no one carries "that" battery pack. Well..., finally Panasonic got smart and did something about that. This phone comes with plain old Nickel-Metal Hydride Rechargeable AAA Batteries! No more battery pack! In a few years when the original batteries no linger hold a charge I'll just replace them with easy to find NiMH AAA batteries. |
All telephones should be this straightforward

| It's amazing what can happen when I follow directions. Set up of the KX-TG6412M was as easy as taking a few minutes to follow the well written instructions. Once set up, the sound quality was, and is excellent. My wife and I were amazed how light the phone felt in our hands...easy to hold up to the ear. Being members of AARP we both love the large, readable display numbers on the screen. We also love the fact that each phone takes 2 triple A rechargeable batteries - what a great cost savings when replacement time comes around. (They are about 1/3 the cost of normal cordless phone batteries) Finally, when the phones are not in use and not on the cradle, they will hold a charge for 11 DAYS! Talk about energy efficiency. Initial rating? 5 stars...very impressed. |
Great Value - no pesky answering machine!

Quick Take: If you want a modestly priced, reliable phone without an answering machine, this phone is a good choice. The second handset (KX-TG6412) is also nice for putting a phone where you don't have a jack. (KX-TG6411 is single handset version).
DETAILS:
I am a long time user, and fan, of Panasonic wireless telephone equipment. Until recently, I was using a higher end version of their DECT wireless phones. But I had one frustration - I was unable to fully disable the answering machine function on my higher end unit. If it got enough rings, it would turn itself on. This is the first truly bone-headed feature I have seen from Panasonic. But I digress.
In order to solve my need to NOT have an answering machine, I set out looking for a phone without that feature. To my surprise, an answering machine free phone is very difficult to find! Finally, I came upon this unit. Not only did it not have the feature I didn't want, it was a DECT technology phone (meaning it would get along well with other equipment in my home) and it was made by a brand I liked.
When I got the unit home, it just got better. I was able to register the units from my more expensive Panasonic system with the new base unit, and they worked just great.
Since there is so little difference in the typical price between the dual handset (KX-TG6412) and the single handset Panasonic KX-TG6411T DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone why not spoil yourself? You know you've always wanted a phone next to your royal throne!
One final note. If you are tired of "scammer" phone calls - "auto warranties", "credit card rate reducers", fake "bill collectors", fake "irs agents", fake "charities", and all of the other low life tricksters, this phone is for you. Just add them to the phone's "call block list" and they will be filtered out (assuming you have caller id service). It works much better than that "fake call block" from the phone company that doesn't accept most of the numbers you want to block. |

Purchased to replace GE DECT 6.0 phone that was not that great. Have 2 cordless Panasonic 2.4 ghz that are great, love Panasonic products.
This phone system does not disappoint. Big easy to read display, large buttons, reasonably comfortable to talk with though I usually use the speaker phone.
Easy to program and adding numbers to one phone automaticly sends to the other so no need to store numbers on more than one phone.
Uses rechargable AAA batteries, seems like a nice idea will see as the units are used and need battery replacement. Should be easier to find these types of batteries than a phone specific battery.
All in all this is a great set, I have ordered two additional handsets and am very pleased with this phone |

| Wow what clarity with dect.6 technology. Excellent style with a bright screen. I would recommend this phone. It does not have a answer machine. |
