Uniden - TRU12803 5.8 GHz Phone/Answerer Review Summary

Cordless technology is utilized with the Uniden TRU12803 5.8 GHz Cordless Phone. This phone offers 5.8 GHz operation, so there is plenty of power to keep the phone running and reviewers also like the speakerphone capability and multiple handsets. Uniden TRU12803 5.8 GHz Cordless Phone is “The Best Portable Phone I Have Ever Owned”, says one enthusiastic reviewer and there are others who feel the same way. But some feel exactly the opposite, like the reviewers who make comments such as “My Uniden Phone is not the Best Cordless I Have Ever Bought” and “Looks Can be Deceiving”.

I have tried several different phones over the last 10 years.  Uniden seems to be the best of all of them.  This is not the first Uniden I have purchased.  They do last longer than others I have purchased. I havereally bad luck with portable phones. I leave them sitting on top of cars. To close to...

I wanted a 5.8 GHz cordless phone system and decided it would be a good time to replace my aging AT&T answering device with an integrated cordless phone and answering system. Trouble is, the AT&T worked so well that it spoiled me for answering machines. I tried a 5.8 GHz GE cordless phone and answering...

very disappointed with this phone

This phone looks great, but once using I find that it is not as good as it looks.  My old phone had the ability to take a call from the caller id log and format for redialing purposes.  This one won't let you do that.  Now I have to find the number in caller id, write it down, then dial it.  Sounds like an easy thing but so much nicer when you can push a button and the work is done for you.  The screen is hard to read as well.  Nice that there are lots of hand sets to add.

I got this phone when we moved because there were only two old phone outlets in the new house. I like to have a phone close at hand having my son around, so I tried this expandable phone system from Uniden. Not only is the answering machine great, and the quality of sound wonderful. I can use the speaker phone on the main set or on the individual phones themselves. As well as have a phone in my basement where there is no outlet at all and not have to worry about the cordless loosing its charge.

 I love this phone and wish I had it sooner.

I have owned this phone for several months and although it has it's limits, the overall package is superb.  Decent reception, easy to understand functions and priced very reasonably.  All in all a good deal for a medium priced phone.

I am reviewing the
Uniden phone and I have to say that my first one was the best but, the one I have now is not living quite up to my previous one . It was only 2 years old when it passed. I'm sorry but cannot find model number.,
