Panasonic GigaRange KX-TG5566M Phone and KX-TGA552M Handset
Finally a phone and handset that is almost perfect. You don't have to read or listen to the "mushed" caller ID voice to identify when you want to answer the phone. You have many alternate choices... ring tones, pictures that pop up, and/or the blinking message light color. There are some weaknesses compared to the many other phones I have owned: 1) You can't customize the caller ID voice for your friends (but as mentioned above, you don't need this feature), 2) You can't dial from the speaker base without removing the handset first (what were the designers thinking?), 3) When you answer a call on one handset, the other handsets report the call as a missed call (just give up cleaning out the missed calls on the other handsets). 4) The buttons are a small on the handsets. However, it's the best phone I've owned so far. What I'd like to have is the ability to load all the features from the PC based phonebook. You can't customize the ring tone, ring color, and picture pop up from the PC based phone book so when you load the individual sets, you do more than put the name and number in the phonebook. You spend a lot of time customizing all the handsets. I do like the fact that you can add a name and number on one handset and send it (or all of names) to the other phone sets (... only one handset at at time). It's a definite keeper once you get past spending a lot of time programming the custom features. I recommend that you buy extra handsets and get down to one 5.8 Ghz phoneset system. I had two different 5.8 GHz phones interfering with each other. Now these phones work everywhere in my house.

Very pleased with additional handset
I bought this additional handset to use with my KX-TG5538 Panasonic base and it has been working like a charm. Actually this phone in my opinion should have come with the base and has a larger screen, allows you to upload your own pictures (where the phones that came with the original based dissapointedly did not). I like the abilty to change ringtones as well. Voice quality has been great and the $20 rebate helped offset the expensive price for this individual handset. All my fiends and neighbors are in awe of this!Only con is that I can not automatically transfer the phone book from my other handsets to this one which can be a pain.

Works Great, No Hassle Setup
I've been really happy with my new handsets. I specifically selected them because they used the 5.8GHz range (no interference with my home's WiFi network), and had color screens. Because the units connect via RF, I can place them wherever I need a phone in the house without regard to the location of my phone jacks. Every handset then uses the hardwire connection via my phone's base station. When you're setting up the new handsets, you can have them copy over the phone numbers you've saved in the base station, which is really convenient, since you don't have to reenter them each time you add an additional handset.

Excellent phone
I purchased this system from another vendor and bought two extra handsets from Amazon. This phone is outstanding in terms of ease of use and quality of sound. It is very easy to toggle between voice and speaker.It is nice to put digital pictures on the phone, but I would consider this a novelty.The price tag is on the high end (the only down side I see), but this is the third phone system I have purchased in the last year. I would have saved a lot of money if I got this from the get go.

great phone
this phone is great. it has many fantastic features and the voice/sound is great. the only thing i don't like about an additional handset is that if you pick up the phone when there is an incoming call with one handset, the other handsets says missed call. it would be great if they would all work togather. but all in all it's a great phone and would definately recommend it.

Good phone for those with impaired vision
We purchased this phone as an add on to my mothers Panasonic system 5576. It's easy for her to use because the computer screen on the phone is backlit, the caller id tells her who's calling, and we have it set up so that she can answer by hitting anykey and then pressing the speakerphone button on the phone. She then just places the phone on the end table and talks as normal. This way she does not have to remove her hearing aids. When using speakerphone it's impossible for the person on the other line to tell because of the voice clarity.

Snazzy unit
Bought this to add an additional phone to my base unit system. Works perfectly. Battery last a long time, and I love being able to customize the phone book, background wallpaper, and ring tones from my PC.Only thing missing is bluetooth compatibility.
