This is my second version of these phones. Prior set wore out from old age. As I had it about 10 years or so, I was fine with that, and happy to stay with the same brand / model.
This phone has all the features you would expect, including call blocking (but that's not where the robo-call killer is), crystal clear sound, long operation on a battery charge, etc. You are probably figuring out the call-blocker isn'y working so well any more as the robo-callers are now using a different phone number every time they call you. That renders your call-block useless.
The really big deal is a combination of two features. One is that you can put your friends / family / business contacts into groups, each with a distinct ring. And the other really big deal is the do-not-disturb function. I have mine set to start at 1:30PM, and end and 1:29PM. So basically, my phone is always in do-not-disturb mode. And... I set the groups (family / friends / etc) to ring even during do not disturb periods. So people that i know and are in my call-groups will still ring my phone just like normal. But Robo-callers don't ring the phone and they never leave a message because they mostly know you won't call them back. So they can change their calling number all they want and it still won't ring my phone. If someone I need to communicate with does call me and they are not in one of my ring-through groups, they will normally leave a message and I can add them into one of your groups later if I want. These two features have saved my sanity. I NEVER get disturbed by Robo-calls any more. This alone makes this phone a must-buy!
PS: I don't use the cell-phone or blue-tooth functions, so cannot comment on how well those work.

Connecting devices and adjusting settings are all wildly complicated and unworkable on this device. While I was able to successfully pair an iPhone X, and the Link2Cell actually worked, other problems made it unusable. My biggest complaint is that pairing the system to a Bluetooth headset requires a device PIN, which is an out of date mode and not an option for either Apple AirPods or Jabra headsets (I tried both). The Panasonic is unable to “discover” available devices and so I could not get the headset to work which was a very important feature for me. Online support is non-existent.
My other complaint is that in general the entire menu settings interaction is worse that bad tech from two decades ago. It is basically the same hierarchical menu design that you would find on an automated voice system, and we all know how much fun those are! Here’s an example of how that plays out: by default, the phone system speaks caller ID. If you want to turn that annoying chatty robot voice off, you have navigate through about 10 steps on the base unit to set it to “off.” But wait, you’re not done. You now have to repeat that 10 step dance on every handset because they seem to have minds of their own. But wait, you’re still not done! You’ve only turned off chatty caller ID for the landline. Talking caller ID still happens for incoming cell calls. To turn that off, you now have to navigate through an even more complicated set of menus and yep, you guessed it, you have to do it on the base station and on all the handsets. Whew. Even after all of that effort, I have one handset that refuses to accept this simple request and will not shut up.
I am sending the whole system back to returns! Bottom line, so long as you just want a cordless phone it’s fine. But maybe you could save a little money and buy a cheaper model without the bluetooth which is just not ready for prime time.

The phone itself is very nice. My intended use however was for Bluetooth connectivity for myself own purely. The iPhone latest models eight and X both exhibited severe echoing with this model and with the earlier Panasonic I had. This was not a problem when we use the iPhone 7 earlier I don’t know what has happened but ultimately you cannot live with the echo that other people find when they speak with you on this model.

I ordered this phone to replace the old Panasonic that I had enjoyed for years. I was very impressed by the features.
The problems were:
Ringer and caller I.D. sound were ridiculously loud. When I made a call, (at the highest volume)the person at the other end sounded low and garbled. He complained to me that at his end, it sounded like I was shouting at him.
I returned the phone.

i agree with all the positive reviews regarding the performance of the phones, but i had to down grade the review due to my perceived view of the weak performance of the batteries. i have been purchasing panasonic cordless phones for over 20 years now, and i recently upgraded to this model. i like everything about it except the batteries.
the batteries run out of juice very quickly compared to the last sets of panasonic phones that i have owned. if you keep your handsets in the cradle all the time, then this wont matter to you. however, if you carry your handset around most of the time (as i do) then you will see that you go back to the cradle to recharge the phone much more often.
also, just a small, but the low battery warning seens to go off when there is still a lot of life left in the batteries..they might want to recalibrate that low battery warning.

Phones work great! Make sure your batteries are fresh or you may have a problem with the connection breaking up. I used the old batteries out of my old phone. Two of the phones were breaking up when trying to talk on them. I replaced the batteries with a new set that came with the phones & the problem was solved! I also bought an extra handset to make 6 in total & the phone extender just in case. The wife likes to take the phone with her when working in the backyard or when visiting the next door neighbor.

I had my doubts reading only the one and two star feedbacks, but all of the landlines seemed too pathetic to purchase. I had to replace my old Uniden because even new batteries would not hold a charge so I took a chance on this (trying desperately to overlook the price and opted for an extra receiver) and I was very pleasantly surprised. First, I'm lazy so when the box came (which was my only negative because it wasn't in an unmarked box and if someone wanted this they could easily see, from the street, what this was on my porch and steal it), I took it inside for a look see. Pretty straightforward, the receivers need included batteries and need to be plugged in - done! Then, the base, hooked it up on the wall which I couldn't do with my old Uniden so, I'm getting happier. Batteries in and charging. So, I look at the handhelds and start pushing the buttons that are clear what they do and I was able to adjust the ring and noise cancellation later after I made my first call. So, then I got more interested and found where to hook up the cell. I got to the part where it said to pair, went to my cell, put it on pair - DONE! Just that fast. I called myself and it worked perfectly. I called someone and had them call me and it worked perfectly. Then, I went to sent the time and date and found one glitch and had to pick up the "quick" manual. Found that two arrows pointing at each other was a "star" (who knewww). Set! If I do nothing else at this point - like block a call - I'm good until I die. After reading the quick guide I could see where some found the extra two codes to do other stuff, but I'm as happy as I was with my new Android phone when I tried to figure out what it could do and still haven't found all the features. So, I'm good. Tomorrow, I may even leave a message for others to hear on the phone (but, do I really need people to hear, "leave a message because I'm not there". That could signal others to stop in knowing I'm not home......So, there you go. I really like this phone. I got a call on my cell (that I rarely check at home and get so much grief from because I don't attach it to my hip) and I picked up the receiver next to the lounge chair and wallah, spoke to someone who said I hadn't returned their text. Duh! Glad I took a chance on this. Now, if I can find a good wireless thermometer station (trying going through those tidbits of feedback)........L8R

We have used the Panasonic Cordless systems for years. This latest upgrade is a godsend. With all of the Robo-calls and Spam-callers/Telemarketers, our old system, with only a 50 number capacity, required a lot of input to keep up. This system, with a 2000 number storage capacity, has made blocking these clowns a breeze. I highly recommend it to anyone with a "junk" caller problem. Besides that, speaker clarity is great, the screen read-out offers large, easy-to-read fonts; the speaker phone works great; the phone book(s) capacity is way more than we've needed so far; and the multiple phone books and cellphone matching eliminates the frantic hunt for our cellphones when one is heard ringing elsewhere in the house. The automatic "Eco-Mode" battery tending is a nice feature, too. You can just leave the handsets in their cradle/charger all the time without fear of limiting battery life.

As soon as we receive our replacement phones we'll return these. The talk, sp, off buttons too small and difficult to use for older hands. The volume goes to 7 but compared to our 10yr. old Panasonic set that is about a 3 which is very low and difficult to hear. We could barely hear on talk mode and even speaker phone was low and a bit choppy. Calls were constantly dropped and if we had a second call no notification. We missed a call from hospital. Our old phones we could leave off charge for 3 days - these needed charged every 3-4 hours. When battery showed at half mark dropped calls were frequent. We had to turn the phone sometimes so people could hear us. Call block is good.

The phones are easy to read and I didn't have any issues in setup. However less than 3 months in, the base unit's display is not working. I have to send into repair, which means none of the phones will work while the base unit is out for repair! Would not buy again.

This is a newer version of are old replacement phones. They do more things and work just as well as our old phones, only better. Extra things, such as you can set an alarm to wake you in the morning. You can label each one, so you can use as intercom. Baby monitor....etc.

Sound quality is great. a world better then the comparable but tired Panasonic set it replaced. Love the CALL BLOCK button.
I use hearing aids for near normal hearing and the loudness of the phone on speaker is adequate at max in a quiet room but I'd love to have the sound a bit louder at times and that is not available.
The following may be generic to all wireless phone sets, but if one is on the phone, there is no provision for an incoming caller to record a message. I contacted Panasonic, was told for that capability I would have to use my carrier (COMCAST) and it's either their unit or COMCAST, no way to use both. I chose COMCAST out of necessity as I use my phone in Census work so people responding to me need to be able to leave a message if I'm on the line with someone else. But how I'd love to be able to switch back and forth. . .
Overall I still give this set 5 stars as so much about it is just right.

Had this for 3 months and spent most of my time trying to get ahold of Panasonic to figure out why my voicemails are not being saved. I contacted our phone company as I did research about some places will recognize a new phone connect and include their own voicemail system and do hidden fees. This was not the issue. Our internet had no issue. You can call and hear our voicemail but can not leave a voicemail and this is our business. I spent two whole days with online chat for panasonic and did all of their * codes and reboots and nothing worked. They are suppose to be sending a replacement and fix it, had me email them proof of payment. I did all of that and heard nothing in return. I am still contacting them on their chat as there is no number that will connect to them and they just keep saying "it is in review" so when our patients who have emergencies call out of business hours and I call into our office to retrieve those messages so I can call them back and help. I can't do that because it wont save them. Panasonic does not care if you have issues so go elsewhere.

I love this phone! I have used Panasonic phones for the last twenty years but I have never been excited about a phone system until I purchased a Link2Cell. The thought of having to type in my contact list was one of the main reasons I waited until my old system died to upgrade. You can find cheaper home phones than Panasonic, but these high quality phones last a decade or more. Since I was going to upgrade, I decided to get the latest tech and found this Link2Cell phone system on Amazon.
The number one reason I love it is that I could easily import my 100+ contact list with the push of a button. The second reason I love it is that there is a dedicated "call block" button. If I answer the phone only to discover that it is a robocall, I can push call block and it is automatically added to my blocked numbers list. The blocked numbers list holds 250 numbers! Yea! Plus it can block extensions for scam calls.
This phone essentially gives you a second or third phone line without paying your phone company extra. Once you have paired your cell phone, you can answer and make phone calls from your cell phone using this Panasonic system and you can make phone calls using your home/main phone number. You can pair two cell phones to the system, which is great for couples.

Once again I was suckered into getting a "bargain" from a warehouse deal on one of these phone systems. When you see that the warehouse is overflowing with returns for this item, please, only consider getting a new one, if you have the nerve to get one these to work properly. Mine didn't. The Bluetooth connection is terrible. The sound quality on the handsets is outright poor. My unit had originally been in England. The batteries, NiCads (10) were flopping around in the beat up box. But I got a "good deal." Speaking with Panasonic, they were pleasant, but wanted me to send the unit back to the service center. Hence it is easier to send it back to amazon. Which is what someone else did, and then I bought it.

Big product bug: could not stop voice caller ID. With all menu options for this feature turned off, the robot caller ID still yelled out the phone number of each incoming call. We did not like this feature but could not stop it. I found other customer comments reporting the same problem. (One commenter said a Panasonic techie admitted to him that it was a software problem.) Otherwise, this phone system is excellent. We liked all its other features, but we returned it because we could not stop the robot from yelling at us each time a call was received. (We found a Uniden phone system on eBay which we purchased instead.)

My previous Panasonic had a light flashing on the top of the handset when the answering machine recorded a caller message. This unit just tell you, in the handset, that there is a "New message" but no flashing light or other indicator. The base unit does have a red flashing lite. Don't know why Panasonic deviated from this. There may be something in Setup.
I also love the 250 Call Block button on the handset. Beats using the provider's Call Block, that usually has a limited (Cox has a *60 with 30 entries). Just push the button. Another thing, the voice that announces the call (caller ID) is squeaky and would be nice if the user could choose from a few other tones. My other was way better.

Love these phones! Many features that are so convenient. Caller number and name are read aloud so if you aren't near the hand piece you can hear the calls or texts. Nice clear and crisp reception makes receiving and making calls easy since so many cell calls are distorted and inaudible. Link to cell feature comes in handy for this reason as well as no dropped calls. The BEST feature is call BLOCK. You can block up to 250 unwanted calls at the touch of one finger with the block button. If they call EVER again it rings 1 time as blocked. Touché to unwanted incessant solicitors!

Because of prior experience, I requested "SHIP IN AMAZON PACKAGING". Obviously someone wore blinders.
Container suffered, contents appeared ok. Was tempted to send back, of course no return label.
Bit the bullet anyway and set-up the phone(s), so far all are working fine.

I had to replace my 8 year old Panasonic phone system as I felt it was time. I wanted something that has 5 handsets and that was similar in features to my last Panasonic system. I was very pleased to have found this system on Amazon and liked the price.
The price was outstanding cheap and the quality I assumed would be good.
The handsets also have a low battery indicator which speaks and I like this function.
Sound quality is the only very major flaw and it's difficult hearing people speak. When I use the speaker feature that doesn't help. My family is disappointed with this phone system. It's definitely not worth purchasing.

We replaced another Panasonic phone system that was approximately 4 yrs. old. When you pick up the receiver to make a call on the new system, you cannot get a dial tone to make it even possible to dial out. You can jiggle the button, wait 5 minutes, wait 10 minutes, and still no dial tone. It may take up to 30 minutes to get a dial tone. This is true in the base and the other 4 phones connected to the system. Very disappointing, since the only reason we replaced the older Panasonic phone was because of this same feature. However the older phone system is more
reliable than the new Panasonic system, and that's not saying much.

Phone works as advertised, but has limited storage. Blocked calls, phonebook, etc. all have restrictive limits. Base unit display quit working and I was never able to get any response from Panasonic on fixing it. Battery life is not that great, so make sure you keep it charged.

I wanted a phone system that had easy to read large lettering as well as large numbers and a large screen. This phone system has numbers that are large enough and a well lit screen that is large enough, but the lettering on the buttons is so tiny that I literally need a magnifying glass. The backlighting of the buttons does not help in reading lettering on the button. So I am left wondering if the button says Intercom or Speaker, etc. The system does block calls easily, and that was a main reason I got it, but I lost the easy reading of the phones in doing so. I thought I researched thoroughly before buying, but apparently not enough. More and more, I am learning that there are some things you just need to buy in a store.
