This phone is great in that it is convenient and frees up your hands to do other things while still carrying on a conversation. I do English tutoring over the telephone and am on it for a long period of time. I didn't get sore ear like I do with traditional handsets. That was a big plus for me. I found the reception was pretty good, but sometimes the person I was talking to said that I didn't sound loud enough. The phone dials very loudly, I had to pull the headset off while I pushed in numbers.

All in all, I was satisfied, but not impressed.

This is a great little phone. The only problem I have with it is that the belt clip is not very secure, so the phone tends to fall off when I'm walking around. The reception is great, even with the base unit sitting in a back bedroom.

I was so excited to see this compact size phone to clip on to my belt and talk with the headset. I am so disappointed. The clip never stays on, always falls off while I'm talking, thus disconnects my phone call! Ugh! Not to mention, the headset swivel practially rips my hair out every time even when I take it off very carefully! Not at all the item I had hoped for.

Nov 2004. I just got the new white GE 40 channel Headset Phone.
I had tried several small Uniden and GE handsets with an add on headset and all were terrible. I returned them all.
This one is great. It attaches to my pocket. Its so light. The sound is clear and loud. The headset is comfortable.
It is great to be able to write a review for something that works the way it is supposed to.
PS I would have preferred black. If they make it in black I will buy one of those too and maybe give this one away.

I love this phone. It's lightweight and the battery goes on and on and on before having to recharge. The caller ID is a bonus and you can't beat the price. I didn't think I would like a traditional headset but after wearing the headset a few times it's starting to shape to my head; so much better than the ear piece headsets. Everyone I've talked to thinks I'm on a regular phone since the reception is so clear. The clip has fallen off a few times so I just stick it in my pocket since it's so small. I'm ordering one for my sister-in-law who spends more time on the phone than anyone I've ever met.
