This is the best phone I have ever owned.
The reception is is great. The speakerphone feature works great too, it is nice and clear from both sides when speaking, no breaking up. It has nice melodies to choose from. There is one I love and use that doesn't scare me from my sleep like the regular ringing from my old phone did. It was easy to register my other handset also.
I am very happy with this telephone.

THIS IS THE WORST PHONE I HAVE EVER OWNED! DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE.This is my first review of anything, but I felt this phone was so bad and expensive that you needed to be warned.
The display goes blank so you cannot read caller ID and it is impossible to hear anyone or be heard.
I bought this phone through Amazon in December 2004. Do not buy!
Great Phone.
I actually have the 5202M which is the same phone, but with an additional hand set. This phone works great! The CallerIQ is the only odd feature because to use if effectively you have to call into a service which appears to cost about $10 per month.
The reception is very good but I can't go more than about 50 yards from the house before it starts loosing reception. Within the house it is perfect.
The speaker phone is great on the handset as well. I didn't think I would use the feature, but for long hold times or sharing a converstation or just working hands free, it works great.
I am giving it four stars because when you add a handset they don't seem to "work together" in the sense that if you pick up the call on one hand set, the other hand set logs it as a missed call.
Faulty product, don't buy it!!
Check out the below (cut and past into your browser address) - all of these panasonic phones have problems. This is about a pending class action lawsuit against Panasonic.

Noisy phone
There is an 'echo' noise in the phone. This is suppose to be 'free of any interference' but that is not true. I wish I could return the phone but do not know how and it has been more than a month. I would not recommend this phone to anyone.
