This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG7644M DECT 6.0 Link-to-Cell via Bluetooth Cordless Phone with Answering System, Metallic Gray, 4 Handsets (Office Product) This was a seriously pricey phone for our family, but it had every feature I wanted. I needed to be able to wall mount the base and answer calls from the base for when the kids lose the phones. I won't have to buy expensive replacement batteries. I easily paired with my cellphone and download over 100 numbers to the shared phonebook. Then I could go back in and easily remove the ones I didn't need. Once it was paired, I also was able to receive cell phone calls through the unit. I heard the cell phone ring first, followed by the panasonics. The ring volume can be lowered, but I love being able to have it loud so I can find the phone that's fallen behind the cushion. The intercom system works great. It's easy to customize each phone with a more descriptive name like kitchen or bedroom and you can easily intercom without drilling through menus. I love being able to turn off the ringer in the bedroom just at night,. You can set a turn off time and turn on time. The only thing I haven't tried yet is transferring a call to another phone. I know there are still loads more features available, but I'm seriously happy with my purchase. 40 of 41 people found the following review helpful: Integrating cellphone, Google voice and skype + bluetooth speaker This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG7644M DECT 6.0 Link-to-Cell via Bluetooth Cordless Phone with Answering System, Metallic Gray, 4 Handsets (Office Product) Let me first talk about my phone setup. 1. I use google voice + Obihai 110 (highly recommend) as a free land-line, google voice will forward calls to both my cellphone and panasonic 7644M. 2. I have one cellphone paired directly with 7644M with link-to-cell. 3. Finally, I use link-to-cell to pair my computer with 7644M, so as to make computer calls with skype, etc. Below are the results for this setup, I numbered them corresponding to the above 3 different ways of using the phone. 1. There is no problem using GV this way, I read from one previous review that if GV forwards calls to both a landline and a mobile-phone, there will be a glitch that the other side cannot hear your voice. But in my case, GV forwards calls to google chat (which is converted by ohihai 110 to voip signal), and mobile phone. And there isn't any glitch at all. When receiving a call, usually 7644M would ring first, then after 2-3 seconds, my cellphone rings, I can pick-up any phone to answer the call. 2. Basic feature of link-to-cell phones, works like a charm, really easy to setup. One thing worth mentioning is its ability to transfer contacts from mobile phone to landline. However, to copy all contacts together as a whole to 7644M, your phone need to support PBAP (phone book access profile), which seems not existing in my cellphone. So I have to transfer contacts individually. Another good thing is you can make multiple calls using different handset at the same time. For example, if one handset is making calls using cellphone signal, another handset can still use the land-line to call someone else. I believe there can be 3 simultaneous calls (1 land line, 2 link-to-cell) at maximum. 3. This is like using it as a bluetooth headset paired to computer. The manual doesn't mention anything about it, but it turns out working well. Here are the steps to achieve this. First, use link-to-cell to pair the phone with your computer. After pairing is successful, your computer will automatically install the drivers for this blue-tooth handset. Then in the sound and recording devices, you should be able to see one new device named blue-tooth hands free audio. Now, if you want to chat on skype with this handset, dial a random number (I dialed 1) using the handset via the computer link-to-cell, since this is an empty number, you will not be connected to anyone. But after a few beeps, the handset will establish a voice connection to your computer. You can now chat via skype or any other chatting software with your handset, assuming you have properly setup the sound devices within these softwares. One major problem using it with skype is that the handset would hang up either when skype finishes a call or when there is no call and no sound from computer for like 10 seconds. This means after you dialing 1 with the handset, you need to dial the person you need to call immediately on computer, and the connection only last one call, after which you need to repeat again to establish connection. The numberpad on handset works with some lag in skype. I guess there is some workaround for skype to maintain a constant or automatic connection, but didn't figure out how. I also tried to set my default audio device as 7644 on computer, and played mp3 via the handset speakerphone. It's mono sound obviously, but acceptable for some audio books. I tested for about 10 mins without seeing any problem, and handset automatically hang up after I stopped music for 15-20 seconds. As you can see, this phone integrates all of my phone services. Whenever I receive calls from cellphone, GV, skype, I can answer them with it. I can also make calls with it using all the above services. A few comments for the difference between 7641 series and 7621 series if someone wonders. They are basically the same except for 1. handset on 7641 have headphone jacks. 2. You can dial and speak via the base unit with 7641, while 7621 only have the answering machine function on the base unit. 3. For the same reason, 7621 doesn't have base unit display, and there is no intercom between base unit and handset. 4. 7641 have power back-up mode during power failure, which means you can still make calls even there is a power outage less than 13 hours. 5. I didn't see on 7621 description page it has range-boost, while 7641 clearly says it has range-boost, which allow 20% more distance between base unit and handset. So if you only use your handset to make calls, and your area doesn't have power outage once in a year. Then probably 7621 could also meet your needs. I just played with it for half a day, so cannot comment on its reliability. But for its versatility and good sound quality, I would vote it for more than 5 stars! 45 of 49 people found the following review helpful: OK, but there are some shortcomings This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG7644M DECT 6.0 Link-to-Cell via Bluetooth Cordless Phone with Answering System, Metallic Gray, 4 Handsets (Office Product) All the reviews are pretty much dead on. They mostly focus on the positives of the phone. Other reviewers have said basically how I feel. It is a pretty good phone, but I wish it could be made better by improvements in the shortcomings listed below. I will give my thoughts more on what I feel are some shortcomings. 1. The phone feels cheap, compared to older phones I have had in the past including AT&T and VTECH and others. For me, not the most comfortable to hold. 2. Handset volume is definitely lower compared to older phones I have had in past. 3. The display name of handset is limited in character length and so are names in address book. 4. Software driven menu is not the easiest to navigate. You might need the manual handy to figure things out. Not the most intuitive design. 5. Volume control is hard to adjust during call. You have to take phone away from ear to adjust. It would have been nice to have volume control on side of phone. 6. No dedicated intercom button. You have to press "menu" button then scroll down with center pad and get to "Intercom". Once again, it would be nice to have a dedicated intercom button. 7. Mailbox system is pretty basic. Would be nice to have multiple mailboxes. At least three...Mailbox 1 for dad, Mailbox 2 for wife....you get the idea. My old Vtech had 3 mailboxes. Worked great! 8. Caller ID list needs multiple presses to see list. WTF? Should go directly to Caller ID list. Most Recent Customer Reviews phonesphonesphones I did research on panasonic & it rated the best.
