Pros & Cons
Pros
Great value priced item - i feel that i got a good bang for my buck. Great set of portable phones but we received a great deal on them. I hope it lasts another 12 or so years.
Panasonic kx-tgd664m is a set of 4 cordless handsets. It has an intercom which you can set up between any of the handsets. Allows us to get rid of the landline, and just use our cell phone as the. Landline.
Took about 10 seconds. The phone to cell feature works flawlessly with my iphone 13 mini. Bluetooth reconnects automatically.
It has 3,000 phone book entries, not the wimpy 50 my old panasonic one had. The only drawback is that it takes a couple of days to set up. Mine have been knocked over and even onto the floor numerous times without breaking.
Waterproof handset with 2 aaa rechargeable batteries. Comes with the cheapest batteries they could find.
Cons
It really belongs in the dumper. System soon fails and neither amazon nor panasonic were at all helpful. This piece of junk is already boxed up and going back.
There is no flashing light on the handsets to let me know there is a message. You can't erase a message from the handset, only from the base unit. The incoming caller sounds like they are crushing cornflakes into the phone.
Panasonic is a scummy, underhanded company. Why did some corporate * decide that for me?
Phooey on you panasonic. Audio is poor and scratchy. It's awful no matter what setting the vc is on. Shame on you, panasonic.
The phones in this set are as sleek as wet hotdogs. The handsets are narrower in width and depth. However the bases are too lightweight and move around too easily.
Highlights
Quality
Well made, easy to use, good volume and tone, the sound quality is great.
The sound quality is good, and the phone is comfortable against my ear.
I'm very disappointed in the quality of this phone.
As expected of newer items it was not of the same quality as my older system.

When a call comes in you can see on the display if it’s coming from a linked cell phone or from your home line

Whenever i get a robocall i report it to the “do not call” registry and then i block the number
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Subsequent calls from that number do ring once before they are hung up on so that’s not perfect

My other panasonic phone set prevents blocked numbers from ringing at all

So i guess that’s my one quibble with this one

And that set also has jacks in the handsets for attaching an earphone which this set doesn’t have

But sometimes if i’m texting back and forth with someone the bingbong and “text message from” announcements get old pretty quickly

I typically disconnect my cell phone from these phones at that point
