PANASONIC KX-TG 9152 DECT TWIN WITH WIRELESS USB SKYPE ADAPTOR REVIEW
Please help others like you with just one click! Just click 'yes' or 'no' to indicate if a review you read was helpful. This information is invaluable to us. Surprisingly for such a well-specified product, set-up was fairly simple and intuitive. Sound quality is excellent, the handsets are light and comfortable and the only problem with the answerphone part is the annoying accent on the default greeting. The Skype out phoning is generally good though a couple of times the receiving phone could not hear me. This is a Skype or TCP/IP problem and not a phone problem.
Regards John This telephone system exceeded my expectations. The sound is crystal clear and far better than any other cordless phone I have used hitherto. The pre-recorded answer phone message telling callers you are not available is done by a wonderfully cheerful voice, not as impersonal as with most other answer machines, and some callers already have commented very positively about this welcoming experience.
I like the idea that the choice of ringtones also includes the option of assigning short voice messages to up to 20 numbers. For example, when I now ring home from my mobile phone, there is not just a ringtone, but also the announcement Regards Mrs. Rose Lees The PC setup was straightforward. For calling abroad the quality of the Skype calls is better than the dialed access calls, although it costs a little more. Of course calling another Skype user is free.
The phone received a good review in Which. The phone is easy to use and has plenty of useful features e.g. you can listen to messages o both the handset and the base station. The base station flashes when there are new messages. If you use 1571 then this takes a message if you are on the phone. Regards John Rutter I am delighted with the quality of this product, the sound quality is superb and the whole system is extremely easy to set up and use. The intercom and conferencing capabilities are a major step forward from our old system and even our biggest technophobe can find a missing hand set.
The Skype capability will, in the future, greatly reduce our phone bills, so the system will eventually pay for itself. this will be sooner rather than later thanks to Ligo's price level. Regards Frank Delivered promptly. Installed very easily and works very well
Regards Mr. Paul Cox This DECT phone is one of the best I have used. Loads of features, very versatile and easily the clearest sound on any cordless phone I have heard. It does take quite a few key presses to access some of the features and some of the icons used are not particularly obvious, but you soon get used to that. The set-up of the Skype integration and wireless adaptor appears to go very smoothly at first, but my main reason for not giving this kit full marks is because you may find that the Skype adaptor software has taken over the rest of your sound settings! You have to do quite a bit of fiddling with settings, both in Skype and in the computer sound settings so that Skype uses the phone and everything else goes through the computer speakers as before. To be fair, problems caused by third party peripherals, such as webcams, may become apparent in the Skype software at the same time, but once you've got it all straightened out (check online forums for help), the Panny with its wireless adaptor works so well that you often don't notice you've just picked up a Skype call, rather than a landline call. We like ours so much that we've just bought the same for my parents, and my computer-phobic dad is now using Skype without realising it!
Regards Jonathan The panasonic KX-TG 9120 is one of the models which can be daisy chained to FOUR independent telephone lines (supports upto 4 bases) with Skype FIVE lines input and cumulativly support upto 16 hand sets as each hand set can only support four bases, though on a single base it can support 6 handsets. All handsets can choose any one of the FIVE lines for out going calls and receive incoming calls from any of the lines.
This featerse is not high lighted even in the panasonic website and hardly anyone is aware of this flexibility of panasonic 9150 Regards P C Ashok This is an excellent product and has more than fulfilled my expectations -particularly the cordless-ness! Ligo provide a prompt and efficient service to their customers, and I am very happy to recommend the product and Ligo to others. Thank you. Alan Cross.
Regards Thomas Just to say that we have 2 sets set up and v. happy with product so far (after 2 weeks). We bought the model based on a which? best buy report and even though we haven't used the USB Skype adaptor yet, we bought this now so that we have the facility when we need/get round to installing it (so can't comment on this bit) - so can't give 5 stars for this reason.
It's worth adding that service by Ligo was excellent and other customer's comments appear true to word. I ordered it Monday and it arrived either Tues/Wed same week! I accidently ordered 2 units online and when I phoned immediately after placing order online I spoke to a British person (as opposed to being farmed out to a customer service rep overseas!) and they rectified the order straight away. (Customer service/support always a concern when buying stuff online). Regards Melissa Thank you for the excellent service and prompt delivery of my recent purchase of telephones. I have no hesitation in recommending your company to others.
Regards Mr. Kenneth Madderson It works well and was easy to instal and is excellent with Skype. Big Bonus you can be on Skype and still receive ordinary calls. Well done Panasonic and well done Ligo for a good recomendation.
Victor......... Southampton Regards Sir Great product. Searched for a phone with these functions and there arent too many out there. For a phone with a difference this is the one you want.
Regards Yvonne Works perfectly well. Lots of features, but can't be bothered to access them all. Do find the phonebook needs a lot of keypresses to access. Should be made simpler.
Regards Mr. John Glazer This phone is very good. Call clarity on speakerphone is excelent. Although the phone does all it's documented features, the only downside is that the colour interface feels a little dated when compared to any mobile phone's colour interface - I expect this is similar across most brands. Despite this minor point, I'm very happy with my phone & shopiing experience form Ligo.
Regards Luis These phone handsets are of an excellent quality and very easy to set up and use. I particularly like the colour screen and the address book with caller display, which is very convenient. Well done Panasonic.
