Nice phone. Looks and feels great. Just some problems. Mute button is definitely in the wrong place and when you dial a number you cannot hear any sound so one doens;t know if it has actually got pressed or not. Otherwise its small and works very well. Has a great battery life. Hasn't died even once and I keep it off the charger all the time.

The things that matter the most to me for a cordless phone are the clarity/range, sturdiness, comfort, and call mute/hold. This phone is A++ on these features. In addition, the weight and extra rubber sides make it easy to grip, the audio is full with loudness headroom, and the buttons light up in the dark. The Caller-ID display is a little small and a little slow in registering. I highly recommend this phone. I've gone through dozens of Sonys and the instant I experienced this phone, I knew I had stepped up to the next level.

I read the review by An Electronics Fan from Paonia, CO, and started laughing so hard! It's sooo true that mute button on this phone is in the wrong place. I kept pressing it with my cheek!!! The key pads do not light up, and you don't hear the tone you usually hear when you press the numbers. It doesn't cradle well so it's not comfortable for someone who stays on the phone for long. However, the receoption is much better than my old Sony cordless that was 900 Mhz. The sound is clear and I do like the style of this phone. It is cheap, and that is probably the best feature of this phone. :-)

I have owned this phone for awhile. The range is worse than my 900 MHz phone and the battery cover keeps slipping off. Good look and feel to it but that's it.

This Motorola phone is light weight and nice to grip, but the "mute" button is in the WRONG place. If you have any hint of cheek bones, you will constantly be pressing against the "mute" button and sending your talker into the land of aloneness. You then have to take the phone away from your ear to see where to press it, this time with your finger, to get your talker back who has been oblivious the whole time and talking away. A terrible design. The range doesn't seem that great either, basically the same as my 900 hz (or whatever) phone from before. Probably worth it to invest more $ for a better phone.
