Strengths: multiple functions; excellent sound quality
Weaknesses: short battery life
Summary: I am happy with this phone so far. It looks stylish and the color is freshing. The only complain I have is the short battery life. You need replace the battery in order to get it working for a long conversation. Otherwise, it is a great phone.

Strengths: Nice looking phone. Nice to have 2 lines in one phone with digital answering machine(replaced my old uniden with 2 lines).
Weaknesses: Heard about the battery problem. I think its better to switch over to NiMH one.
Summary: 2005-11-14 07:55:35 And its good I can add any other compatiable phone not some restriced models only. I will update how it is after couple of weeks.I have had bad experience with panasonic customer service regarding a previous phone, so we have to wait and watch for this one.

Updating after using for 5 months. the original panasonic battery started causing lot of problems. I couldnt even talk for more than 10 minutes with full charge. Bought a new NiMH battery and it has been excellent after that. So definitely look for replacing the battery as soon as possible. After replacement of battery, the phone is excellent. Very bad battery from Panasonic.

Strengths: Multiple handsets, appearance
Weaknesses: None found to date.
Summary: This unit was purchased as a replacement for an older Panasonic 2-line phone (lightning strike). Even with its numerous features, it is very easy to program. The screens on both the base unit and the handset(s) are very readable. The sound quality is just a good as the replaced unit, maybe better. And with the ability to add up to 8 handsets, this unit is excellent for houses that have a limited number of phone jacks.

2 Star ReviewDon't buy this phone!
Strengths: None worth mentioning.
Weaknesses: Short battery life. Low volume. Short range from base, to pick up signals for satellite phones. The screens often go blank on three of four satellite phones, so you can't view caller ID.
Summary: I've had this phone for more than a year, so based on longer-term use, I can say that I'm very disappointed in this product for the above-mentioned reasons. I thought I'd give it one more chance in my new house, hoping it would somehow work better with different physical distances between phones, but the same problems exist. I'm shopping for a new system right now...

Strengths: 2 caller IDs. 2.4Ghz does not interfere with wireless internet acess. Great color.
Weaknesses: Panasonic not the best to deal with in regards with rebates.
Summary: This phone is a very good phone with many features. Caller ID on both Handset and on base. I can't say much bad about phone but I got this phone with a rebate sent to Panasonic. And lets just say you might not get that money without a fight and atleast 6-8 months later and many calls.

3 Star ReviewPanasonic KX-TG2740S Cordless Phone
Strengths: Speaker phone,Dual keypad,Big hand set,2 caller IDs
Weaknesses: Very low volume, Message indicator which is hard to see, Expensive and hard to find Extra handsets,
Summary: So far this is working fine. but I am dissappointed wiht the handset low volume. Some times it is very hard to hear from the otherperson. The answering machine working fine. But the message indicator light is very hard to see from distance. The handset receiption quality is very good. I liked the speakerphone feature a lot. I haven't had any problems other reviewers mentioned about the short battery life. I haven't replaced the orginal battery. So far no battery problems. It has so many features which I liked. I go this phone in a very good deal with reabtes. So I can't complain about the price. It is worth for the money which I paid.Overall it is a good phone.

Strengths: paper feeds through cleanly, no jams at all. phone is an added bonus in convenience
Weaknesses: none
Summary: first off, replace the battery with the energizer NIMH ER-P511. the standard battery shipped with this item is NICD, with a capacity that doesn't hold the charge very long.

the fax machine is intended for light faxing. it uses paper rather than film (good to save money). prints with an ink film roll rather than ink cartridge (cartridges can be pricier, and also dry out if used infrequently...another good thing)

the phone is great, range, clarity...but it cannot be networked with other panasonic phones. I have another 2.4 ghz answering machine/phone combo...and if the fax machine is set up as a fax machine, I have to use the answering machine on the fax machine. which isn't a bad thing, its just more limited (only has one mailbox vs. my other phone which has 3)

all in all, a great investment for someone who doesn't require heavy duty faxing (ie: sending 20 page faxes)

Strengths: Good range, good set of features
Weaknesses: Lousy battery
Summary: The handset on this phone has a lousy NiCd battery with memory effect. I replaced it immediately with a NiMH battery as I knew over time it would just get weaker. Otherwise, this phone is great. It has good range and both the speakerphones and answering machine work well.

Strengths: Excellent Phone.. Good Quality.. Its a panasonic!
Weaknesses: none
Summary: Purchased this phone couple of weeks back and I have been satisfied with the phone. Good Quality. No Static.

One of the best phones I have used. With speaker on base and handset, it comes in very handy.

I had a olympia before this and I wish I would have bought this phone before. No comparisions between these two.
