Uniden DECT 1735 Range

Connecting Panasonic phones to Uniden 1735 – I have the Uniden DECT6.0 model1735 home phone given to me (don't have the manual). I also have a current main unit Panasonic DECT 6.0 model KX-TG6823ALB that I'm using How do I get my Uniden home phone to connect to the Panasonic phones (4) I am using now so I can have more handsets around my home I have got NBN. Many thanks Patrick Show reply

Do not buy this product – Some years ago having had a Uniden corded phone with no problems I decided to purchase their cordless 3 unit set to replace my Panasonic which "died". What a huge MISTAKE!!!! This would have to be the worst phone I have ever bought. Tinny ring, slight echo in conversations, slips easily out of cradle and difficult to work menu. As one cannot test… Read more

these items in store I was hoping Harvey Norman, Batemans Bay, would replace if for no other reason than a goodwill PR gesture when I explained I was not happy with the product and explained why. But No. The product had to have a fault. Whilst the item cannot be described as faulty it is certainly a problem in the usage. I was told "buy a cheap product and you get what you pay for". Totally incorrect. My Panasonic was in the low price range and lasted for 7 years of continuous use with no problems.

As I no longer wished to use this Uniden phone due to the problems I was left in no position but to buy a new one so went back to Panasonic and like the old one it is so easy to use.

I advertised the Uniden for sale at a greatly reduced price but no takers. People obviously had taken note of previous reviews which I should have done. The Uniden now sits at the back of a cupboard shelf.

This is a great phone and read the instructions properly – This is a great phone don't give up if you cant install it . Please contact uniden and don't bag the product. Very simple they will fix the issue. Bad reviews do not fix the phone .Get your act together and contact uniden do the right thing. Show details ·  2

Works well – Was having trouble with menu, but after persisting with manual all ok. Very good customer service, both phone and email help, very quick return answers, very clear instructions, phone operates 5 star. Show details

3rd Uniden cordless phone – This is my 3rd Uniden cordless phone. Other 2 gave up after 5 years. I was disappointed that the latest one didn’t have the option to allocate a special ring tone to callers. Also that the screen was smaller and lit up with red light which I find hard to see. The phone is working perfectly as did the other two.  Show details ·  2

Regarding handset to base reception – I have just purchased the Uniden 1735+1. Reception distance for the DECT system is claimed to be up to 600m outside, and (I think) 60m inside. Inside the house reception is OK. Outside, through double glazing and shrubbery, 80m is about the practical limit. At 60m, if I step behind a masonry outbuilding, I experience total loss of reception. At… Read more

40m, inside my workshop, line of sight through two windows, reception is OK. If I step behind a masonry internal wall, I lose reception. This is identical reception to my ancient Telstra 12250 DECT phone. I have yet to test the call quality. Set-up seemed easy enough, if you read the book carefully. This is not in the nature of a complaint, but rather a guide for users who need to use their phone away from the house.

Cant see numbers and names on the display with them being small and the backlight being red – Cant see the numbers and names on the display with them being so small and the backlight being red.

I will never buy it again – Find the instruction hard to follow for a 75 year old, with the modern day teck talk. Key pad good size but screen to dark. having trouble with the time because I have caller ID. Show details

Excellent customer service – Had Uniden Land line phones for many years (back up system for medical reasons) and last model stopped working (old Age) purchased new 1735 which stopped working after some 2 1/2 months contacted company who promptly forwarded instructions on how to return the unit post free under guarantee . Their followup communications were excellent and now awaiting arrival of replacement unit Show details ·  1

Very unreliable – I have an intermittent but frequent problem. The phone rings, I pick up a handset, base station or remote, and the phone keeps ringing. Message on handset "Connecting...' but it does not connect. Show details

DECT1735 – I have had my D$CT for 2 days and I find that for a 71 old year pensioner, the color of the screen to is just is bad. Instructions ,to small to read. Perhaps a thinner manual or a quick more easier to understand.

Not Happy – Bought 3 weeks ago, every time I received a call the light would start flashing. I had to reboot the phone daily. I returned it to the store who I turn refunded my money.  Show details

Rubbish – new phones both display out of range , replace on cradle, check base power , have been charging for 2 days have replaced batteries with new ones just to check $40 dollars wasted will go with another brand or mobile  Show details

Not connecting, not charging and the warranty process reads like a con – I have an DECT1735+ 1 which is advertised as being NBN compatible. I contacted my NBN provider it is still not connecting. I plugged the phone in and has power, the batteries are in the handsets and at first seemed to be charging. The handsets either say they are out of range or not in base station. Both are in the cradles and are literally 2m… Read more

away from each other. There is no dial tone and it is not ring when we test call After two weeks the handsets stopped charging and the base station is cycling a down and left arrow like symbol on the display resets they suggest does nothing.

Granted due to my own business I've not had time to chase and push this process along like I should but I got this set on the 25th of Dec and I still have no real sense of a resolution.

The warranty process they email you reads like If they DECIDE it's non-waranty they will charge you for the quote for repairs........? I've ask for clarification from Uniden I have not heard back again to be fair I only ask yesterday.

Save yourself the trouble and hassle don't bother buying Uniden at all.

SO disappointed! – Tolerated this phone for months now..no more.. people can’t hear me..Say “sounds like you’re talking under water”. It crackles and plays dead. I spoke to Office Works and they ..without hesitation..said “just bring it back, no worries” Hmm! Show details

terrible phone – hours and hours of reading manual and blogs to get the basics working. Don't buy this phone. i wont bore you with the problem as too many to list but after 18 month...now people can ring me but I cannot answer. waste of $100 Show details

Not happy with this phone – I purchased this phone for my business and had trouble months after. Phone sounds fuzzy when talking also can’t hear voice messages clearly. Phone is getting worse, I’m now shopping for a new one. Rang my phone company to check if it’s the reception or bad line but They said it’s not. Show details

Excellent response to query – On advising the Uniden Customer Service team of my problem I received a detailed reply allowing me to ascertain that the actual problem was a flat NBN backup battery actuating a phone alarm. This allowed me to fix the problem and restored my faith in the Uniden system. Show details

Complicated – I cannot work out how to use this phone, it is the most complicated piece of equipment in the house. All I want to do is switch the answer phone on and off and pick up my calls, I want to throw it down the creek I am so frustrated with it.

Useless Phone – 1735 cordless phone wont ring. Rang Uniden for help, no help was offered told to take it back the phone was faulty. The lady I spoke to was rude and talked over me all the time then hung up me. DO NOT BUY UNIDEN PRODUCTS Show details

2nd Faulty Phone – Purchased a Uniden DECT 1735+3 14 months ago. No 2 Phone died. We decided to buy a new Uniden DECT 1735 +3 on 5th July 2020. I installed it and did a test. Everything worked as it should for about half an hour. I noticed a No 8 appear on the base Phone. When I tested the phone nothing worked. I Phoned the Good Guys and told them the problem and… Read more

asked for assistance, thinking I have done something wrong. They just told me they did not make house calls and to return the phone. I am using my old phone at present until I can purchase one that works.I rely on our landline as we are elderly and do not have a mobile phone. This exercise caused me so much stress as I had just come out of Hospital with major Surgery. I am not impressed.

The handset won't charge – When I first used the phone, it worked. Then I found it was completely flat. So I reseated it, and nothing. I removed the battery and put it back and it turned on. Put it in the cradle, and it started charging, or so I thought.. the charging light went off after 5 minutes and it would not charge again. Removed the battery, repeated the above, and… Read more

it did the same thing.

Either a faulty battery or charger. Either way, from a uniden product, terrible.

Dreadful. Two of four phones dead in five months – Bought January 2020. Four phones. One dead in three months, the second dead June 2020. Have bought an 8355 and hope this is better. I will then return the 1735. Show details

Had So Much Promise, But Fails To Deliver – I had so much hope for this product. After using various Uniden products over many years the only failures we had ever had was either being chewed by the dog, or an unfortunate incident with a toilet. With this sort of brand loyalty built up over decades I didn't even consider any of the competitors - why would I, Uniden had never let me down… Read more

(unlike that damn dog).

The marketing spiel sounded like it would do the job, the specs confirmed that this was the product that we needed (with 3 separate levels we need base + 2 handsets). Setup was very easy no surprises at all, but that's where the good news ends.

- It only rings 6 times before the answering machine picks it up. I have changed the settings from 6 rings to 9 rings and also 12 rings, but still the same thing. - If I do manage to get to the phone before the answering machine picks it up, when I pick up the handset it does not connect (at least, not every-time). - There are frequent issues where the handset says 'Not Connected' - The old phone would work in the shed, this one will not - even now that the base is closer to the back yard - The audio quality doesn't seem as good as the old phones, although this is quite subjective and can't be measured

Unfortunately I can only rate this as 3 stars, and if I'm honest, one of those stars is only there for old times sake because of how good Uniden has been in the past, but not now.

terrible product – i rang my nbn provider and no faults have reset my uniden and after 5 minutes of having a conversation it cuts out and plays a recording of the conversation we already had DO NOT BUY this rubbbish product Show details

Phone died after 3-4 months both time – Good and reasonably priced phone except the power function died after 3 months, then the same thing happened with the replacement after 4 months. Cant be a coincidence but nobody else has complained of this happening. Show details

Disappointed with phone – I have had no end of trouble getting the answering service to work even when the handset and base tell me the answering service is on followed the instructions in the booklet but no go what I need is a step by step instruction on how to set it up Show details ·  4

Great value phone – Purchased this phone a few months ago to replace my old phone. As I rarely use my house phone, I wanted one for the added security of knowing that I have a phone in case of emergency. The extra handset is handy as I can keep one next to the bed while the other is in the living room. It is wifi and nbn friendly, and doesn't crackle when the… Read more ·  1

microwave is used. It has an advanced alpha display caller ID, 70 phonebook memories, an integrated digital answering machine and up to 10hrs talk time and 7 days standby, and can be either wall mounted or desk mounted for convenience.

Seems to work fine. No Issues at all – Changed over to Uniden DECT phone yesterday after continuing problems I have experienced with Telstra approved hand set that I have had for 10 plus years. Unit was was easy to set up and I had the phones working with my NBN in a matter of minutes. Batteries were included for both phones and were easy to clip in to slot in the handsets. Now I am… Read more ·  1

able to pick up calls at the press of a button and no longer experience dropouts or "screeching" hand sets when I attempt to receive a call.

The unit and handsets are neat, easy to use and appealing to look at. Very happy so far.

HOPELESS – Purchased a couple of weeks ago. Had problems since day one! Firstly, Noise on the line when trying to make or receive a call. So loud making the phone unworkable. Having to revert to our mobile phones. Second. Intermittent dialing tone. Sometimes you get it, sometimes nothing. Have done all suggested checks but to no avail. Perhaps we just got… Read more

a 'bad' one but that is no help! Unfortunately we disposed of the packaging and receipt otherwise it would have gone back to the shop. Only solution is to bin it and purchase a new phone which will definitely NOT be a Uniden!

Easy to set up and NBN friendly – These phone system is easy to set up and connect to your modem for use through the NBN. The 3 handsets have there own charging stand, this is handy to have in different parts of the house. You will never be with out a phone that isn't charged. I would recommend this phone to anyone wanting an easy to use phone. Show details

Battery is not good – Just purchased this and while it looks great it’s battery is not good and mine heated up,the battery hook up to back of the phone clip In the wires and it’s abit tricky so you can’t jusy buy normal battery’s if they play up, I left it on charger for 24 hours called someone spoke for 5 min battery went down to 1 bar,as I said this was newly purchased.  Show details

An ok phone for the money – Bought the phone for $44.95 from JB Hi Fi. Single handset and base as we don't need or use extra handsets. Phone rings loud and clear, however there is no way of turning up the volume during conversations which is only a problem for my husband. We use it on speaker phone if necessary. A bit slow and painful to input phone numbers into the phone… Read more

book but that is only a minor irritation. Not really a bad phone at all for the price. No problems so far.

Need longer ring time before messsage cuts in, unable to answer phone before message bank comes on, maybe take off message bank? Show details ·  3

Disappointed – My phone keeps saying handset not registered place on base. I can't get a dial tone. Keys are not responding. Brand new phone Show details
