General Electric 28112 1.8 GHz Twin 1-Line Cordless Phone

Overall quality : poor
Ease of use : poor

I am very technologically savvy, and I had a hard time to learn to navigate the phone menu.

The phone has a nice bright blue colour when active, but the LCD display is very faint and hard to see. The volume and ringer are faint, even at the loudest settings, but the line noise when the phone is plugged in isn't.

Very hard to navigate the menus. The centre Talk button on most other phones (and cell phones) is the navigate button, and instinct is to use this. The up/down arrows on either side are inconvenient at best. The buttons are not clearly indicated, and hard to find.

The voice quality is poor. It sounds like an electronic voice with loss of sound (electronic distortion) that makes it hard to understand what is being said.

Definitely a poor product. Unsure if the DECT 6.0 technology or GE's use of it is at fault. Took minutes to decide this product is unsuitable for use.

STRONGLY advise against purchasing this product, especially as a gift. It WILL be re-gifted. Most likely to you.
