Uniden Dxi5686-2 5.8 Ghz Dual Handset Extended Range Cordless Phone System With Call Waiting Caller Id This phone is set up so that when you put it to your ear, your cheek hits the off button on the phone. The phone also has a very short range for a 5.8 ghz unit, I have 6 other 5.8 ghz phones and they work all over my yard. These 2 phones only have a range of less than 50 feet. If I had known this I would not have bought them, as they are almost useless when you step outside the door.

I recently "upgraded" from a 2.8 gig set to this 5.8 ghz set. I thought it would be less interference because of my wireless router which operates at 2.8gighz. Well these two phones are the worst wireless phones I've ever used. I've lost count how many times someone will call only to get my answering machine because my handset can't find the base! I can be 5 inches from the base and the handset still can't find it. It does this randomly...also everyone complains that they can't hear me very well or there is a lot of static. I never had these complains with my old phone. I don't think I'll ever buy uniden phones again.
