Suffers from fade-out. .......2007-09-09
We bought this phone because it supposedly wouldn't suffer from interference from our home wireless system. It didn't - but it did suffer from fade-out, even if you were not moving. Called Gizmosforlife to enquire about the return policy and we're still awaiting an answer. Also sent them an e-mail and I'm awaiting a reply to that also.
Finally a Keeper! Super-Expandable, Attractive, Amazing Range.......2007-06-10
We have a large multi-building home with an ailing old intercom-phone system from 20 years ago ($5000 then). A wireless system would be ideal. I have purchased many systems less than 6.0 and had to return them because of poor range or bad answering machine functions. I am happy to report that this system exceeds our expectations.
I don't mean to confuse you, and it probably does not matter to you, but I purchased this system because it can have multi-modules, which means that you can setup another module on the same line and expand the system with another system. You can have 4 modules, and 6 phones per module, so you can have 24 wireless phones on one line! The intercom would only work on its own module I believe. There are two modules or systems you can buy, one has an answering machine and the other does not. Make sure you get the correct one! They are the same thing except for the answering thing.
Now back to exceeding expectations, the range is much better than any earlier system, so I won't need more modules anyway. I can take the phone all the way to the beach and get clear reception. The system is very very easy to install, and my hard of hearing daughter can hear the rings and the conversation crystal-clear. Also, the units are very attractive and compact, so it can fit in your pocket easily. There are more great things about this phone, but enough rambling from me for now. Thanks Uniden!!!
Great phone!.......2007-05-07
After reading numerous reviews and doing a fair amount of research I bought this phone over several other DECT systems. The sound is crystal clear and the range is much better than any cordless phone I've ever owned. Best thing is that we can run our Wi-Fi system AND the phone system without any interference!
Uniden Dect 1080 6.0.......2007-04-11
Purchased 1 base unit with 5 handset and installed system two weeks ago. The cordless is clear and no interference. One base supports 6 handset and only one telephone outlet is needed for the base unit. All handsets accessing the telephone line through the base unit(much like a CPU). Handset may be programmed to 2 separate base units. This allowed for privacy and no other handset may pickup the line as long as you are using your handset. Any handset may access voice mail allowing the base unit to be located in any room. One handset was returned and exchanged because of charging problem, but the other 4 handsets is fine.
Bravo, Uniden!.......2007-03-27
I just use it for 1 week - till now I'm VERY satisfied: sound and the range are just great, almost no interference or static (much better than Motorola 2.4 Hz I used before); nice, slick and intuitive design; a lot of useful features. The answering machine really does have british accent - and I think it is cool; it looks and feels very good, too! I was able to figure out most of the features without even looking into the Manual (which is not superb). If you have DSL, do not forget to use the filters!!! Altogether, for now it is - 4.5 stars (reliability leaves to be seen, otherwise - 5 stars). Thank you to other people for their reviews of this product - I bought it based that.
Pros: sound; range; look and feel.
Cons:It looks like there is a little glitch with AM in certain mode

Customer Reviews:
I can't believe how bad Uniden products have become........2007-12-17
I hate to pan any product, but this one really deserves it. I've liked
Uniden products for many years, but this one's a clinker.
Right off, I notice several VERY annoying things. The interface is very
difficult to work with. The silly beeps and blurps get old quickly.
Even though the handset is squared up, it is difficult to hold
because of the small size, which isn't apparent in the photos. There is
no external headset jack and it is not wall-mountable, but I knew this
when I purchased. It is expandable however extra handsets are expensive.
The outgoing greeting MUST be recorded by you; it has no anonymous
'default' greeting that most others have, and that I prefer. There are
numerous other quirks that were annoying as well, but I won't list them
here.
After charging and fiddling with this thing for over an hour I
could not get the date/time to set. The answering machine refused to
function properly because of this, which made the whole thing unusable.
I finally gave up and returned this phone. I'm sure that defective units
are the exception, but even before I found out that the date would not
set properly, I was disappointed. This phone felt cheap, light and was
not comfortable or intiuitive to use at all. The beeps/braps/blurps were
extremely annoying, and you will probably find this to be reason enough
to return yours if you buy.
Nice Phone, good sound.. No headset jack!.......2007-11-02
Very nice in appearance.
Excellent sound and range.
No headset jack and no belt clip. What a pity! I sent it back.
Answering machine with useful beep.......2007-10-23
One feature, essential to me, has not been mentioned by other reviewers. Uniden seems to be the only phone manufacturer that provides an audible beep to alert the user to waiting messages. I seem to be incapable of noticing a blinking light or other visual message waiting alert, so I stick to Uniden. The only way a buyer can find out about this feature is to download and read the owner's manual at the Uniden site. It is not called out in the printing on the box or any other prominent place.
This base unit, with extra handsetsUniden DCX 100 Accessory Handset and Charger for DCT756, DCT758-2, DCT7585-2, DCT76565-2, makes a very good household system, and the base unit is smaller than many and takes up very little space.
Overall, fine phone!.......2007-10-10
The phone fits perfectly in the hand, and the speakerphone feature is excellent! The voice quality is first-rate, and the answering function works quite well. Not a perfect phone, but one of the best I've owned in the last 10 years.
Alright for the price, Panasonic is better.......2007-09-01
I bought this phone because I found a local store that had it 50% off. After 5 days, I returned it simply due to the odd UI and an undocumented feature: you can't pick up the phone from any handset if another handset has the line. It says "line in use". I have never seen a home phone do this. It guess I could see it as a privacy feature, but to get someone on the other side of the house to pickup the call, you have to transfer the call to that handset. What if you don't know what room/handset is in?
Here's my rundown:
pros:
+ Lightweight
+ Small, candy-bar size (it actually looks like a cell phone)
+ Very low cost for a DECT phone
+ Expansion handsets only $35, compared to others which are upwards of $70
Cons:
- proprietary battery
- no backlit buttons
- menu UI is slow
- menu UI is confusing
- obviously a european market design (british recording, date format)
- The speakerphone volume is weak. My panasonic has a speakerphone volume 100% louder than this
- The earpiece volume isn't that loud, even on the loudest setting. My panasonic is at least 33% louder on the earpiece.
- No external headset jack.
