Reviews of the VTech ip5825

CNET Review
The Good: Great price for two digital-spread-spectrum handsets; one shared phone book; call timer; standard AAA rechargeable batteries.
The Bad: Short handset battery life; confusing control-button array; "hybrid" 2.4GHz/5.8GHz; no battery meter.
The Bottom Line: The 5.8GHz VTech ip5825 is a dual-handset cordless phone system with a bargain price, a nice array of features, and decent call quality.
Manufacturer: VTech
Part number: IP5825
