GE - Skype - Certified - 2 in 1 Internet & Standard Phone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had a bit of a time finding a decent phone for use with my skype until I found this one. I keep my home phone to no long distance and of course cell phones only allow so many "anytime" minutes. I bought a year of skype and was very pleased with quality over a headset using the sound card through the computer but I did not desire to be tethered to the computer each time I needed to make a call. The first cordless skype phone I bought was horrendous (read my review of it also) and was becoming discouraged. I could not understand what is so complicated about getting decent quality from a cordless skype phone when you can so easily from a regular cordless phone.

I bought this phone not expecting much but still hopeful. I was pleasantly surprised. At first it was not the greatest as I kept getting drops in my calls that I never got using the sound card in the computer. I was using version 3.5 of the skype software and decided to try downgrading the software to 2.5. That was the trick, now this phone delivers great quality calls with no drops. This phone can also be used as a regular phone but I have not used or tried it that way as I am pleased with what I already have.

Using the 2.5 version of skype I say this phone is worth the money, and I almost forgot that it uses AAA rechargables (included) but if you need quick power you can put regular AAA in to make a call (just don"t forget to remove them before placing the phone back in the charging base.

You do need to have an AC outlet close for the base, I mention this since many are powered solely through the USB but this one is not.

I'm pleased with the quality I get from this phone and recommend to anyone looking for a good cordless skype phone.
