EnGenius FreeStyl 2, High power and sensitivity wireless extreme range, 9 Handset Landline Telephone, 900 Mhz with 2-way intercom

For the price I paid, I was disappointed. The buttons feel weird, the sound was low, and the speakers sounds cheap. Reminds me of the 900 Mhz phones from VTech in the 90s, which I thought was built better. It sounds and feels more like a radio, that's been transformed into a phone. So I gave it 3 stars. But; I can see it having 5 star capability if I view this device in a different light or prospective. So I wanted phones, like regular phones and bought a Panasonic cordless DECT 6 Plus system after I bought this that I'm thrilled with. Big buttons, super loud speakers, all the bells and whistles with 2 cell phone connects, phone books, etc. I decided to keep the phone till the end of Jan for the extended return period, and give it a chance. If I look at this phone as more of a radio, that I can be in any part of the building and get my phone calls, then that itself will be enough to keep the phone as a specialty phone, that can slip in my pocket when I walk around the building and not miss my calls. So far so good, and I found that the up and down arrows will control the volume levels which go much higher than default, so I can cross that complaint off my list. It works on the other side of the building even behind pallets of product, so check. It's very small and compact, fits in my pockets so check. It feels solid and well built. the base unit is small and compact, doesn't consume much space. I'm going to give this 5 stars now, because I saw it in the wrong light or perspective when I unboxed it. My friend Mike tells me it has the same electronics as the high end Durafon. It's not the kind of phone you buy as your primary phone, it's a specialty phone for long distances and high densities such as warehouse pallets and products and exceeds my expectations.

Have to admit, I was skeptical, but as far as longer-range connectivity, this phone *delivers*! Calls are answerable and clear throughout the span of our operation - 6 or so lineal acres - even though the base unit is basically buried within a concrete building and the acreage is full of foliage (which is full of water - which sucks up radio freq) and *big* machines. Additional handsets are a breeze to add: press a button on the base unit and two on the handset, and voilà! No programming needed. My favorite feature: the various available ring tones. I am extremely fond of the fact that you can choose your ring tone per handset, as well. My old office phone used to scare the bejeebus out of me every time it rang, but with this one, I've chosen a softer, more melodious ring tone that doesn't startle me. I find that to be a huge plus. Huge. So far, the only thing I would change would be to have the ability to block numbers from the handset. On our old phone, if someone rang and I didn't want them to get through again (at least not from that number), I could easily add the number from the call log onto a blocked list. Even though we are on the national 'do not call' registry, it is largely ignored, and we get loads of telemarketing calls. Being able to just block the number right after hanging up - without having to enter anything beyond a short menu path - was very handy. I guess one other thing that'd be nice: we had voicemail integrated into our old phone system, but this phone does not have a built-in answering device. You have to go through the phone company for voicemail as opposed to the phone saving voicemail locally. I also liked having visual VM notifications on the phone's digital screen which I do not have with this one. In summary (TL;DR): the main reason we got this phone system was the range, and it does not disappoint. It's got some attractive bells and whistles, too, though not quite as many as I wish it did. Still, that that doesn't detract from the fact that this phone does what EnGenius says it'll do which has earned it 5 stars from this user.

For a product that costs this much, id expect it to be of very good quality, I got the complete opposite. The buttons are small and hard to push. The "long range" i could only get about 400ft. The sound quality is terrible.

Super easy to set up — had it out of the box and running in minutes. The range is excellent, the call quality is clear, and it’s been reliable for daily business use. For the price, the value is fantastic. Definitely a great investment for any small business needing a solid long-range cordless phone system.
