Pros: Corded/Cordless, Expandable, 5.8GHz Cons: Wear and tear on the keypad was fast
There comes a time in everyones house hold when you have to add more phones because you have either lost the primary handset or lost it in the couch covers. Cordless phones are a must as no one likes to be tied down to 1 sitting position while on ...
Pros: Great features on the base unit. Uniden great at raising my hopes and dreams. Cons: Handsets are unable to hold volume on incoming calls rendering them essentially useless.
I have been a VERY happy Uniden user for the last six years. Recently I decided to upgrade my system to the UNIDEN TRU-9488 model. This model comes essentially as a corded phone base w/ digital ans. machine plus one cordless handset (a TCX905) with the ...
Pros: Great quality and can’t beat the price! Crystal clear sound Cons: None
My son decided to throw our cordless phone down the toilet and so I was forced to upgrade our phone. I purchased this set at Costco when they had a $30 off promotion and therefore it was just about $90 for 4 phones! The main reason for purchasing this ...
Pros: Large buttons on base unit and the unit is reasonably easy to use. Cons: Very poor range, less than 50 feet; small buttons on handsets.
I purchased the phone due to its positive ratings and a couple mandatory features. I wanted a phone with the speaker phone in the base so I could answer with one finger. I wanted large buttons on a base dial pad as this makes dialing easier with ...
Uniden TRU9488-3 corded/cordless phones by ford1953jimep ,Nov 08 '06
Pros: Wonderful features, very good range, good voice quality on cordless phones, very good price. Cons: Keypad on base not lighted, and voice quality on speakerphone/answerer on base not great.
I purchased the Uniden TRU9488-3 phone package from a new Costco store in Raleigh,NC. The regular price was $120, but Costco had a $30 off coupon, and also gave me two $10 gift cards for taking out a membership and applying for their American Express card, so it was like buying it for $70. This package consists of the TRU9488 corded base with answering system, and three cordless phones.I have used one of the cordless phones at the end of my 200ft. driveway through the woods, and the performance was excellent. It has many features (call waiting,callerID,etc) that I don't subscribe to, but all the features I do use are very good. The voice quality of the base speakerphone leaves a little to be desired, but is very usable, and understandable. The longest conversation I have had was about two hours, but the battery indicator still showed the highest of three levels of charge. Compared to the GE cordless phone/answerer I had before, this is like coming out of a cave into the sunlight. Since Uniden pushes the corded phone as being usable during a power failure, it would have been nice to have the base keypad illuminated.
Pros: Highly intuitive controls and menus. Excellent audio quality. Handhelds are expandable up to 10 units. Cons: Base station keypad is not backlit.
This system is very "smart". The first thing I did was set the time on a handheld without even opening the manual. Lo and behold, the time appeared in all four displays of the system that were scattered about the house!
Very satisfied with the quality and ease of use. The system also operates as an intercom between any two handhelds. Handhelds are nicely backlit and easy to read and operate. Battery life is vastly improved over older technology. An excellent value for the price. You should upgrade even though your old clunker is still working. Made in The Philippines and not China.
Best phone I've ever owned by risholam ,Feb 04 '08
Pros: Too many to mention...it's made life bearable (that's a bit much, but I'm very happy) Cons: So far haven't figured out how to wall mount it...it's not in the manual.
I have a small business and am on a lot of conference calls. I've searched hi and low for a phone with a good speakerphone and mute. This phone delivers that and more. The cordless that comes with it is tops too. All the right features like headphone jack and monitor to name a few.
I purchased this phone late-2006 for my home office. My main reasons for purchasing were:
- Base Speakerphone
- Expandability
- Ability to transfer calls between base & handsets
I am very satisfied with this phone system. I am able to have the base on my desk (I use the speakerphone quite often) and then I have wireless handsets in other areas of the house just in case I am not at my desk.
this base unit works only for a week. by malitha ,Jul 22 '08
Pros: works well for the first week. Cons: garbage after the first week.
no costomer support.
I bought the TRU9488 with 3 hand sets. i could not receive calls after 1 week. the caller can hear the rings going but the phone is not ringing. then i disconected the power and tried calling with my mobile as it is suposed to receive calls during power faliurs as well. i can hear the rings go when the power id down, but the moment i turn on the power it stops ringing. so i bought anothe TRU9488 on ebay and connected my previous hand sets. same scenario. works for a week and no incoming calls. please dond buy this phone and wast your money. my advice to you is do not buy this unit.
