Uniden 5.8GHz Cordless Expansion Handset for Select Uniden Expandable Phone Systems

The Uniden TCX905 offers all the same features as the handsets that came with several other multi- handset Uniden phones. It is a solid phone handset, with the 5.8 gigahertz frequency ranking as one of this phone's greatest attractions. I have found that I can stray a good distance from the base and it will still function normally. My home and yard are not huge but I still had problems with fading signals with my older phone. I often had to reposition myself if I was outside in order to get my old cordless phone to receive the signal. But with Uniden TCX905, there is no need to reposition myself or the phone. The signal is still clear, even when I am standing in the corner of my property.

The LCD display on the Uniden TCX905 is nice. It isn't very large but it lights up in an orange color and it shows many bits of information, like the date and time, the phone number and name of a caller (when an incoming call is trying to ring through), a battery charge indicator, an indicator telling

...

you the number of different caller id's that have come through; and an indicator telling you which handset you are using (you can program each one with its own number). The LCD contrast and the ring volume can be adjusted on each handset, making it customizable per room. You can even change the display to read in English, Spanish, or French.

Uniden TCX905 is compatible with many different Uniden phone systems. But in order for this expansion handset to work, it must first be programmed with your main phone. This requires entering specific code numbers into your main phone's base unit. If you do not program, the phone will not work. Programming is simple (instructions are included for programming into different main phones) and it must be completed or the phone will be worthless.

There are only a few things about the Uniden TCX905 phone that are deserving of criticism. First, it can get a little tedious trying to program new names and numbers and one needs to be careful not to get carried away because it can take a long time to get everything programmed just right (using abbreviations is a good idea, to speed up the process). Second, I don't like the flashing red light in the upper left hand corner of each handset. This is a charge indicator that lets you know the phone is charged and ready to go. There is nothing wrong with letting consumers know this, but to have a light that continuously flashes can be a tremendous distraction. Third, the base is small and light and it can easily get knocked off the table or desk on which it rests. Fourth, I would prefer a plug that didn't have a block attached to it. This makes it easy to grip, but it also means the plug has to be inserted a certain way or it will partially cover the electrical outlet directly underneath it.

Overall, in spite of a few inconveniences, I am still satisfied with the purchase of my Uniden TRX905 handset and I may add another one or two handsets like it in the future. They sell for a reasonable price and they are compatible with many different Uniden phones. Clear sound, slim design, and countless features make this auxiliary phone a nice addition to any Uniden household in need of extra phone units.

Uniden 5.8GHz Cordless Expansion Handset for Select Uniden Expandable Phone Systems

I initally got aa TRU unit from costco which was on sale with 3 handsets and a base unit. I replaced a panasonic unit and also vtech units at home. I was so happy with the performance after 2 weeks that I threw away the rest of my phones and purchased an additional 2 handsets.
There are so many great features, it has been well thought out. I has room monitoring for the baby, walkie talkie mode between handsets "direct link".
It has great receptions on the 5.8 Ghz range. In addition it doesn't mess up my wireless network at home.
I is very easy to set up and personalize.
I think it is the best complete home phone system that I have had.

Uniden 5.8GHz Cordless Expansion Handset for Select Uniden Expandable Phone Systems

I need a two-line cordless phone, so sometimes the choices are slim. This is a very affordable unit and can be used as a two-line phone if you have a compatible base unit.

You can transfer the phone book between phones, which is very handy. The quality is also very good. The phone is also very affordable, especially as a two-line unit. The only issue that I have found is that the ringer volume is a little too low.
