Panasonic KX-TGJ322EB Landline Phone Cordless, House phones, Nuisance Call Blocker, Answer machine, Colour Display, Twin Handset - Black

“Edit: July 2026: It’s been 10 years since I bought these phones and wrote the original review below and I’m delighted to report that I’ve had no issues whatsoever. A decade on and this Landline is only a secondary phone and have it for emergencies only. I’ve blocked all incoming calls except mobile numbers. I hope the review is helpful. Many thanks. This review is not sponsored by Panasonic or anyone else. I’m just a very keen user of this product and wanted to share my experiences. These are my personal views based on my experience of finding the ultimate landline phone to stop spam callers. I’ve tried to be as broad minded as possible. I really hope you find it useful and please remember to click on the Helpful button. Many thanks. This is the new 2015/16 top of the range product in its class from Panasonic. It's a little costly but I felt it was justified as I wanted something that was absolutely state of the art that will last many years. - You need to have caller ID in order to make use of the call blocking facility. Speak to your telephone company to activate this service on your line - sometimes this service is free of charge. - You don’t need to subscribe, pay or request the call blocking facility on your line as it’s ready to use as soon as you use this set. - I particularly like the talking caller ID display feature that speaks the users name this is a very useful function that also provides some light amusement. The ringer will pause intermittently while the phone speaks “Call from David for example”. It repeats the sequence until you pick up the handset or the call is transferred to the answer machine. This particular feature can be turned on or off. - I like the colour screen it is very clear. You have the option of having no screen showing when unit is charging useful for the bedroom. - There are plenty of ringtones to choose from although they are a little Old-fashioned. I found the traditional ring is more than adequate. - The general phone is fairly easy to set up and user-friendly, nice light and comfortable handset. - Phone directory is very easy to set up and access. You input the details just once and it will automatically list the info on every handset. Handy if you have several handsets. Each individual is categorised so you can give priority to VIPS i.e. Family members who will automatically bypass the DO NOT DISTURB facility. - Battery audible warning is very loud and will interrupt call to let you know you need to recharge the handset! You have time to finish your call or lift another handset. Useful. - You do get a helpful information booklet and also a free phone number in case of difficulty. - My only gripe is lack of instructions for setting up the Do Not Disturb feature. The idea is that you program certain favourite numbers for example family members who may wish to bypass the do not disturb facility. - Make sure you set ALL the phones to the Do Not Disturb feature at the same time, with the SAME do not disturb times. - You can then categorise certain selected numbers who you may want to reach you in an emergency. - It's great now it works perfectly! - Anticipating a specific call from a Witheld number (ie hospital, Doctors’ surgery etc) isn’t an issue, simply temporarily turn off DO NOT DISTURB mode from a single handset. When the call is complete, simply reactivate DO NOT DISTURB on that particular handset. I’ve found this highly useful for important calls. - You can also add additional IDENTICAL handsets and can have up to a total of six all working from the main base unit. Phone directories will be automatically added to your new handsets once they have been registered to your original base. (I bought the quad set and recently added on the duo set. Must admit to phoning Panasonic UK who quickly took me through the steps of de-registering the x2 new handsets and re-registering these to the original base. 2nd base is now acting solely as a charger with the answer facility turned off. You only need to plug in the 3 pin plug to the 2nd base as you don’t require the telephone cable). Remember to copy in the SAME do not disturb times and ringtones on your additional handsets. Sound quality and operation of handsets are not affected at all by having add ons. I’m thrilled to bits with the new extended set up! - Call Blocker - Easy to use. Tested and works by cutting off blocked number so quickly that they don't hear a single ring the line simply goes dead. Handset lists in your blocked calls with a symbol to show number was blocked and a time and date stamp.Blocks individual numbers, withheld number and also groups of numbers. For example you can block certain area codes if you find that you get many calls from a certain town or city. Useful. I also use a CPR call blocker (Amazon) for ultimate protection - which I believe is far better than the handset capability alone on the Panasonic blocking ALL international numbers, spoof calls, robo calls etc. (Costs vary depending on CPR model but bass models typically start at £40-£50 one unit needed per household which plugs into main bass unit and covers all your extension handsets, quick and easy to attach to main unit and no running costs or fees). (The Panasonic has limited call blocker capabilities and won't block unavailable, international, spoof, calls). I'd give this Panasonic phone 97% + for value for money. I'm delighted! *********************************************************************************** - Recommended manufacture Improvements needed: -Do Not Disturb set up instructions - Improving Call Blocking facility capability - to pre include International and unavailable, spoof, robo numbers, single digit numbers. Also improvements needed to not only block groups of numbers ie particular area code EXCEPT those who are in your directory who you want to get through who share the same area code. (Currently blocks area codes but will block friends and family who share same area code). - Speed dialling of frequently used stored numbers using a single button not responsive In conclusion this is a top of the range stylish and modern phone and would certainly recommend it for anyone looking for a phone that has everything you'd need for a landline. ********IMPORTANT UPDATE: 3/9/16. ******** Just wanted to brief you with an AMAZING trick that this phone is capable of! Ok so we now all know about call blocker, block the number and the call centres won't reach you ever again using THAT number. But time and time again they will simply call you using a different number, spoof number, made up code, copycat area code etc to fool you into thinking its local and not some call centre abroad? Are you STILL plagued with calls? Jumping each time the phone rings? Getting disturbed during that important tv programme, football match, film or during mealtimes etc? Well I have found that if you simply put your “Do not disturb mode” on 24/7 then ONLY calls from your directory will get through. Anything else will ring silently and will be put through to answer machine (you won't hear them speak either until you playback the message at your convenience) so withheld numbers and numbers not in your phones' directory who are genuine can still leave you a message. - I advise that you start do not disturb mode at 0100 and end at 0059 (or any configuration of your choosing that lasts 23 hours and 59 minutes) then you are covered 24/7. As before, you will need to set ALL handsets to DO NOT DISTURB with the same times. Tip is to do x2 handsets simultaneously if you bought the quad or duo pack. Go to “Do Not Disturb” and “Select Catagory” choose the same catagory that you have already put your friends and family in and this will allow their calls to bypass the Do Not Disturb facility. - This is WONDERFUL for people like me who live alone who worry about cold callers. Do this and you will ONLY ever hear the phone ringing to genuine callers in your directory! At LONG LAST I now have total control over my phone and it is real empowerment after all, I pay the phone bill. So it's a case of heads you win, tails you win! Thank you for reading this review. Please rate as helpful. Thank you so much!

I was after landine telephones with Talking Caller ID, as per my parents current Panasonic PNL C1035 Triple telephone set, which unfortunately the load speakers were starting to fail. These new phones have the required Talking Caller ID, loud speakers and also facility to increase the incoming callers voice, even when using the loud speaker. Unfortunately I'd say the sound quality isn't as good as the former Panasonic phones these were purchased to replace, but they were definitely the best alternative I could find, and trust me over the last four months I've tried many numerous options and makes. Price wasn't a factor at all and I'd have happily paid what ever it cost no limit, just to get what my parents actually needed. The incoming ring tone even at its highest setting isn't very load and definitely not loud enough for anyone with hearing problems, but I've managed to solve this with a separate little ringer speaker, which has a flashing red light as well as increasing incoming call tone sound and has definitely enhanced the incoming ringer volume. Not a lot of choice in the incoming call ringer sound options, but adequate. Not as user friendly as the previous Panasonic phones as far as my parents needs are, but for me set up was exactly the same as the previous phones and is quick and easy. My parents are 93 and 88 and are trying to hold on to what independence they still have and been able to receive and make telephone calls is not only important to them, but is also equally important to myself and my siblings. So I'd recommend these phones to anyone looking for something that's easy to set up, as reasonable sound quality and the all important Talking Caller ID. If the sound quality could have been better, then these telephones would have been perfect, but so far they are definitely the best of a bad bunch. Given nowadays the majority of the younger generation don't bother with landlines and tend to just have mobile phones, you'd think the telephone manufacturers of landline phones, would quickly assess their client base is going to be older and in the main have failing eye sight and poor hearing. The elderly require physical helping aids bot necessary pretty looking items. It won't be long before landlines become obsolete, so come on landline manufacturers start to produce what your main client base actually need and are more than happy to pay for! I'd recommend these phones based on my parents experience and I was more than happy with the price given I purchased them as a gift.

There are a few things I read in reviews that are incorrect so I thought I would put them right. Some settings are unique to each handset and some are shared amongst the entire system. Shared settings are updated automatically and there is no need to set them in each handset. For example, setting the time and date will update the time and date in all the handsets. Another example is if you add a contact using any handset that information will be shared with all the handsets. Some settings on the other hand are unique to each handset and have to be individually programmed in to each handset. The handset volumes, ring tones and so on. All this just works seamlessly. You can also use any handset to program the settings of the base unit, such as the answerphone. The base unit also has a ringer in it, so that can be set too. The phones are very adaptable. Just about everything can be set or unset. It’s all laid out very logically in the menu and is mostly very intuitive. The only thing that caught me out is that sometimes the pickup and end-call buttons need to be used while navigating the menus. As soon as you realise that though everything else is easy. Everything works as it should and the phones really are good. Incidentally there are 40 ring tones to choose from including specials for Christmas! I must confess that I thought they sounded a little dated. Also the wallpapers for the display seemed to be mostly rain a few flowers and more rain. The sound is a little tinny but very clear. The volume could be a little higher but was enough for me. There is a rather annoying delay of a few seconds when you access the phonebook. However the phonebook itself is extremely well laid out and informative. The voice announcement of who is calling really is extremely useful. How many times have you run to the phone thinking it was aunt May when it turned out to be a double glazing salesman? Well now you can take a more leisurely stroll when the caller is unknown. The nuisance call blocking is simple but highly effective. I block all calls with no number, all that start with 00 ( international calls ) , and if someone calls who I don’t know they get individually blocked, which just takes a few keypresses. In general comparing this phone to similar level BT phones the Panasonic is more flexible and that makes it also a little more complicated to use. It has more settings albeit uses more keypresses to do the same thing. There is one important difference between the two, though, and that is the way call blocking works. With the BT phone any calling number is always displayed on the display but if it’s blocked it doesn’t ring. So if you look on the handset you can see a blocked number is calling and you can pick up if you decide to. On the Panasonic though the call is NOT displayed on the display. To my mind this is a weakness with the Panasonic because you could accidentally pickup on a blocked number because it’s not on the display. All in all this is a really impressive set of phones. Expensive, yes, but well worth the money and these days you can usually pick up a bargain if you shop around.

Well after my landline was cut by a telephone engineer and not telling me that nobody uses plug in sockets anymore I had to search for a trio of phones as I had a double and a Stand-alone in my kitchen. Chose these after seeing the reviews. They came within a day instead of 2 days so I was chuffed. They were incredibly easy to set up but I had to go and buy a small extension lead as the main phone wouldn’t reach my side of the cabinet where it sits as the lead isn’t very long. They are lovely and clear after my old phones which were past their sell by date. Caller ID but I turned that off. Nice clear display altho I have made a little hood to put over the bedside phone it’s a little bright it may darken but I haven’t read all the instructions to be fair. Mountains of ringtones to choose from and the intercom feature is brilliant. You can speak to all handsets or a chosen one only. Speed dial is available and 250 names and numbers can be stored. Store it in one handset nd it saves to all of them in the phone book. All in all £76 for 3 phones that tick all the boxes is. Really good deal. I can highly recommend them.

We have tried many Digital cordless phones over the years including Panasonic, Samsung, Binatone and BT models but have found a personal preference for the Panasonic models. Our last Panasonic Phones lasted about 4 years before we had to replace them. It may sound odd, crazy even but as there are so many home phone sets on the market we took a few months to decide what would suit our needs more before finally deciding on the Panasonic KX-TGJ323EB Trio Cordless Handset, we were not dissapointed with our choice. With an excellent build quality, [what you would expect from Panasonic anyway] the best features on this phone are the following: 1/ Call Block Feature - Block nuisance callers and telemarketers (Although you can subscribe freely to the telephone preference service TPS to opt out of telemarketing calls) this is still useful because some telemarketers still ignore this and call anyway - hence the need for this feature. 2/ The phone reads aloud the name of your caller whilst the phone is ringing - This is a really handy feature, you can now avoid dashing to the phone only to find out it is someone that you can call back later or just avoid all together. SImply put - this feature is my favourite because you can be cooking, gardening or doing something where it is inconvenient to just get up to reach for the phone only to realise it is someone you can let go to answer machine and call back at a more convenient time. For those contacts you know may be emergencies - you know as soon as the phone rings... [Note:You need caller id for this feature to work which is usually an extra feature you have to pay for monthly with your line rental provider] 3/ The Phone book update on this model allows you to have more than one number per contact. Which cuts down on the number of contacts....(Enough Said) 4/ Easy to transfer the call to another extension - ideal for businesses or a very large household Overview: Panasonic have kept all the best features of previous models but really thought about what added features would stand out against the competition and included them all in this simple and excellently priced package. If you are looking for a solid make and design with simple but useful features this is definately the best one we have tried so far.

Our old set of phones were Panasonic and we loved them. However, they were getting rather old and we also started receiving the dreaded nuisance phone calls and decided to choose these Panasonic phones with call blocker to solve the problem. First and foremost the call blocker works a treat. The phone has a lot of options that may overwhelm anyone who does not cope well with technology - things like "do not disturb mode" background wallpapers, screen colour options and 40 ring tones to choose from. However, when the handsets have been set-up to your requirements they work similar to most cordless landline phones. The "do not disturb" mode will allow you to programme an individual handset so it has a time when it will not ring out, for example I programmed our bedroom phone so it will not ring out loud after 11pm. You can programme the handset so it will allow certain numbers to bypass the "do not disturb" mode and allow the handset to ring out, which is handy if you know someone who may need you in an emergency. My favourite feature on these phones is the intercom feature which allows any of the handset to phone each other. The intercom mode is great for phoning from the kitchen phone to the phone in my teenage children's rooms to tell them dinner is ready rather than me having to shout up the stairs to no avail because they are wearing headphones. To be honest, the intercom mode is most useful for finding a handset that has been misplaced simply by ringing it. Using the intercom mode does not cost you any money as you are using the handset base to transmit the signal and not the landline. You can set up to 5 alarms/reminders on each handset which is handy. You can set the handsets and the base so that it speaks out loud the number of the person that is phoning you but only if you have caller ID. If the number and name of a person that is calling you is already stored on any of the handsets then you also have the option for the phone to speak the name of the person calling. When it speaks out the name of the person calling it does sound a little robotic but it does the job. I ordered the set with 4 handsets but it is possible to add another 2 handsets. Each handset takes 2 AAA rechargeable batteries which come supplied with the handsets. One more thing, to use the call blocker you must have caller ID with your landline provider. These are great phones and I am really glad I chose them. However, if you only need a call blocker and not a new set of phones you may wish to click on the link below. On this link you will find a call blocker that is extremely easy to use and is designed to work with your existing landline phone. One big red button to press and the call is blocked. CPR 1200 Number Capacity Nuisance Call Blocker with Caller Display - Black Update 19/5/2016. I have had these phones for a while now and I have noticed a couple of problems that I feel I have to point out to any prospective buyers. Firstly, There is absolutely no warning when the handsets batteries are about to run out, our old Panasonic handsets would beep about 10 minutes before the batteries in the handset would finally die. This has resulted in a couple of conversations being cut short because the batteries have died without warning. Secondly, the range of the handsets is great for anywhere inside our house but if I move 10 feet into the garden (which is then 30 feet from the base) I lose the signal. I still really like these phones despite the two faults I've just mentioned. However, I have reduced the star rating from 5 to 4 stars. Update 1/7/16. My brother recently purchased these phones as he too started to receive up to 6 phone calls each day from charities, sales people and P.P.i cold callers. Even after blocking countless numbers the calls kept coming. I resorted to setting his phone to permanent (almost permanent) "do not disturb mode". First I set the "do not disturb" start time to 12:00am and the finish time at 11:59pm. Then I selected which categories of numbers I wish to get through to ring out - which is all of the categories from 1 - 9. You have to do this for each individual handset and remember to switch the ringer on the base off. This means that people who's names and numbers are not stored in the handsets will not make the phone ring out, you will however see the phone light up and the number of the person calling you displayed. The reason my brother was getting so many nuisance calls is because he answered the phone to a "telephone survey" person whom then took all the information he gave them and sold it on to numerous companies. These "surveys" are not gathering harmless information and although they may tell you that you will remain anonymous - you certainly won't. If they have called you then they obviously have your phone number, once they get your post code, marital status, age range and discover if you are a homeowner or not there is and awful lot of information for companies to work with. Six days after completing a "telephone survey" my brother received countless charity phone calls, P.P.i calls and calls from "equity release" sales people. Sorry this review has ended up so long.

We had made the mistake of buying BT landline phones which worked for a little while then stopped suddenly - something to do with a Sky setting apparently - it was hard to find a real reason. These handsets work. The ringtone can be changed, the volume can be adjusted, they are intercoms, they have speaker phone, they are easy to set up, the screen is colour and clear - what more do you need to know? I’m very happy with the set (we have got the two handset bundle).

It works very slow. It has good functions like call blocking , nice ring tones, speaker, caller ID.

Produit parfait mais attention ce modèle est en anglais ( donc les prises aussi, il faut acheter un adaptateur prise téléphonique Français)

The quad handset is perfect for a busy office, allowing multiple employees to have their own phone without the need for a separate line or phone jack the phone's intercom function is a convenient feature that allows you to communicate with other employees or departments within the office without having to physically walk over to their desk or workstation. This feature can save time and make your workday more efficient.

This is a few days later and I had some plug converters in the bottom drawer even though I’m still waiting on the ones I ordered. I’ve got the phones working and they’re bloody excellent. Easy to set up and I love them. They work on my NBN and now I’m vey happy. Please note they do have English plugs. Doesn't seem suitable for Australia and the instructions say designed for use on UK and Ireland Analogue system. Until I get the adapters I had to buy I don't know if it will work.

Il prodotto in sé è molto valido. Ci sono però due grosse pecche: 1. Le spine (che sono un blocco unico con gli alimentatori di ciascuna base) sono spedite con lo standard UK. 2. Il cavetto di collegamento alla rete telefonica che arriva con la base principale è anch'esso con uno standard non adeguato a quello che abbiamo in Italia (RJ-11/RJ-14). E' assolutamente necessario indicare tali differenze e quindi la necessità di acquistare SEPARATAMENTE i tre spinotti adattatori ed eventualmente anche il cavo telefonico.

Muy facil usar
