I am looking for a good cordless phone with excellent range. I live in a brick home with plaster walls and reception can be a problem.

I can't answer your questions about range, but I am very happy w/my cordless phone.

Not a great product. I would upgrade if I were you. Mine has terrible reception and a constant buzz.

I have the handset (the receiver/transmitter) in my office which is in the front of my house. I took the pendant outside to the street, about 70 feet from the handset and through a concrete wall and got good reception. I then went to the back of my house and got good reception at 90 feet from the handset (through two concrete walls and three interior walls. My test was to use the talk feature and ask "what time is it, and what day is it" and the pendant responded loud and clear the correct answer. I think that was a good test. I did not test the pendant at a longer distance. I bought the set because my wife has a visual handcap and has Parkinsons and I wanted a one button touch phone so that she could call me on my cell phone when I'm at the store and/or I could call her and she could easily answer the pendant phone. All other pendant type phones would call 911 or some answering service and I wanted a pendant that I could program to call my cell phone when the button is pressed. This was a perfect solution. Larry

It will easily reach 200 ft. I have a house that has steel siding. I take the phone outside on my 5 acre lot. I make and take phone calls outside all the time. It is a great phone. Anyone with a Bluetooth cell phone should have one. I get very poor cell reception in my house. So I set my cell in the best place for reception which is about 14 direct ft. away with 3 walls in between it and the V-tech. It works well. I had 2 land phone lines when I got this V-Tech. I dropped 1 line when I got this phone. Using my cell, it literally works as well as the as any 2 line phone.

Range is good up to 30 feet in my house, and works through walls at that range as well. I read the complaints as well and found out that it was the first model they made that had range issues.

"Pretty darn good"....I tested it for you. About 30 feet with clear reception through one stucco wall, then breakup and disconnect 40-50 feet away and through another stucco wall. I was connected to my PC in my office. I am able to go outside in my yard and tool around.Hope that helps.Additionally: it works well with A2DP in that I connect to my PC and my phone audios separately, so if I have my cell phone on me, and am in my office then leave, I can let it disconnect from that music source and have it switch automatically to my phone's music. Not losing my phone connection, which is most important. I use a similar configuration with my MOTOACTV device and my phone and headset. Works great. "Pretty darn good"....I tested it for you.

What model are you referring too? Range can be affected by walls, metal objects, interference, and bad battery's.

This has great range also. Left my phone in my home office and walked to the other side of the house in the basement.(65+ feet plus walls and floors) Worked great. Forgot I did not have the phone in my pocket.

Motorola XT901 is a good choice. Heavy use on texting, watching videos and so far it has no any problems.

These are great little walkie talkies and I would highly recommend them but that's a pretty long distance away. I don't know of anything that has that type of distance on it. There are cell services that offer walkie talkie type comunication that you can talk directly without ringing that are nice and even some walkie talkie apps for some of the phones that let you talk directly without ringing the phone just like a walkie talkie. With the apps you have to have it installed on both phones to work. I use one of these apps at home when I'm working to see when dinner is ready or if I'm needed for something they work pretty good.

I have a Phonak phone, which is fine, but, I can here my cell phone better(than the Phonak) using the Compilot. I have no experience with Blue Tooth cordless phones.

I have had mine as far as 30-40 feet, with no problems in reception? So yes, it should be no problem. Walls, etc. could shorten that length, but I had a few walls separating the signal from the phones, when I was 30-40 feet away, in my house and had no problems with reception. Your house could be different, depending on thickness of walls, emi, etc.

I have one mounted in my basement and it covers about a 1/2 acre lot at 80% signal strength on the outer edge. My phone has connected to my wifi in the business parking lot across the street from my house ( about 400ft line of sight and through 4 walls and some dirt) BEST AP I EVER OWNED.

They are very good phones. So good that I own two of them for my family and home. They are easy to program for your use and are small and comfortable in your hand. Also they are not to heavy at all.

I do not have a good answer-I have had my phones since July-yesterday one handset quit work completely? I would think that these phones should be better than that-I have used portable radios and have always used Motorola with good rfesults-I am really put out with these recent purchase.

I haven't had any issues with reception due to the phone. Its all been the provider, although even that has been very little to none. Been a pretty good phone for me!

I didn't have both - no cordless hand set, but I can't imagine that the range would be affected very much by having two "receiver" devices in close range of each other. Some of the phones have repeaters available if range is going to be a problem for you - - - they would definitely extend the range .

I don't know how many feet it can go but we have a long ranch type house now, and previously had a two story. It was good anywhere on our property and into our neighbor's yards. Best phones we've ever had.
