AT&T E5965C

Pros: Newest, clearest sounding, best telephone with the most convenient features-read description for more PROS.

Cons: Only stores 50 directory numbers and 10 redial-that's good, but it could be more.

The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend this phone. It might be a little pricey ($169/$86.95), but well worth it. The best quality phone I ever had - greatest sound and features.

Review: Let’s just start by saying that I absolutely love telephones! I always try to purchase the best telephones within my budget. I recently had the Panasonic KX-TG2217S cordless 2.4GHz phone. I did not even have it for a month before it gave me problems. ...

Pros: Clear Reception, Answering Machine, Features

Cons: Hard To Read Display

The Bottom Line: Its a winner with its neat features and clear reception.

Review: I bought my phone back in January, and I am very happy with it. My cordless phones that I had before always had reception problems, and could not keep a charge to save a life. AT+T has solved these problems with this model, and they have been a leading ...

Pros: Looks, GREAT quality handset speaker phone, nice menus, good sound, user friendly, easy to use.

Cons: Only FAIR quality BASE speaker phone. Buttons are abit hard to push.

Review: I have had MANY cordless phones, 900mhrtz, 2.4 ghrtz, both as phones alone and combination phones and answering machines. So this is nothing new, but the AT & T is a new brand for me. I decided I liked the major features, looks and cost, and would ...

Pros: Ability to retrieve messages from handset. Keypad and LCD on base. Expandable.

Cons: High price, Cannot parallel program extra handsets, Answering machine clarity.

The Bottom Line: A fine cordless telephone system if it's semi-steep learning curve and high price isn't a problem. Lots of extra goodies to customize your telephone experience with.

Review: The AT&T E5965C is the latest top of the line cordless telephone in the AT&T consumer telephone roster. (The "E" stands for "Elite"). The E5965C telephone, and all other AT&T branded products produced since 2000, have actually been manufactured by a ...

Pros: good range and features

Cons: pricey with multiple handsets, limited graphics for the color screen

Review: I chose the 5965C as it was the highest rated in Consumer Reports as well as the phone system my in-laws bought after they had battery problems with the similar Panasonic product. The system has a great mix of range, features, and style. The product ...

Pros: Voice quality on outgoing and incoming message good. Lots of options.

Cons: No way to turn off the beep at the end of a message.

Review: This model may be good for home use but in my office I need a quiet machine that doesn't beep when a message is left and there's no way to turn off the initial message alert beep that sounds at the end of an incoming message. Also, in order not to hear ...

Pros: Good audio, phone range in house excellent.

Cons: Operation not intuitive. Handset & base directories and phone logs separate. Poor handset keyboard reliability.

Review: Wanted a 5.8GHz cordless. Researched it to death and the AT&T E5965C was a strong finalized based mainly on a generous feature set, good range and audio. About six months after purchasing, the "0" on the handset stopped responding to touch. I went to ...

Pros: Expandable up to 8 hand-sets

Cons: All of the above....plus high price!

Review: I'm not sure if I just have a defective phone, but I can tell you I have had nothing but trouble with this unit since day 1. The biggest problem is that the phone just dies after about 10 minutes of use. The phone sits in the base charging all day, every ...
