How well does the speaker phone feature work? Is it easy to be heard and understood?

that was the biggest feature i was looking for when i bought this phone, and let me tell you, this phone does not have alot of bells and whistles but the speaker phone works flawlessly!!! you can hear perfectly plus plenty of volume. you can be heard perfectly. i've never had anybody ask me to repeat anything!! even with the tv and kids in the background..200% better than my $600.00 cell phone. so for that reason, i love this phone!!!

I think all speaker phones are somewhat scratchy. This one is ok, I can understand the person across the room, and I yell back! Only because I'm across the room, and not on top of the phone. I think you'll be happy.

I never used this feature. I returned this phone because of the display did not light up.

Yes it works flawlessly, it should appear as a speaker and microphone. I believe we only tested with gotomeeting, but it should work with all of those services the same

I find the speaker phone is OK as long as you don't set the volume at maximum. If you do, it distorts sound. I have not used the conference phone function.

I've used the Bluetooth to make and receive calls occasionally. Not the clearest conversation you're gonna have but it works. I haven't used the Bluetooth feature for anything else thus far.

Yes, phone does have a speaker phone. It works well as I use this feature quite a bit.

Yes, once one person picks up the call, all the rest of the phones on the network can hit either talk or speakerphone and hear and speak as if in a conversation. Caveat Emptor: Phones need to be separated by at least 20 feet to prevent feedback howl. Otherwise, it works perfectly.

the speaker part of the phone is great... i have it hanging on my wall in kitchen, put on speaker phone and talk while washing dishes or cooking. we are about 10 feet from phone and it is clear as a bell and they can hear us just fine. this is great phone...i love it!

No, volume down/volume up/pause and the pause works also to accept calls. For the price it's a good acquisition. For a small speaker the sound quality is good, i believe will only find better audio quality in speakers above $150.

I think yes. The handsets are quite loud when using the loudspeaker function and quite easy to hear when not.

It works well. You can encounter issues when you have your cell phone connected via Bluetooth if your phone is more than about 30 feet from the base unit. For us that is pretty good because we have a floor and multiple walls in between. Without obstruction you could easily get more than 50-60 feet. If your cell phone is close to the base, then it sounds just like a normal phone call over a speaker phone. Generally it is the quality of the cell phone that is more the issue. We live were we are lucky to get more than one bar. Generally the speaker mode of the handset is better than the cell phone in non speaker phone mode much less speakerphone mode. So you shouldn't find issue with speaker phone. I have conducted several conference calls using speakerphone mode over both landline and cellphones using speakerphone mode of the handset.

Yes, everyone I talk to hears the echo except me. It renders the phone useless.Sometimes the caller assumes the connection is bad and wants to call back, sometimes they hang up before I have a chance to tell them it's the earpiece. I'm using a verizon LG flipphone. There are other problms like the multifucntion button barely clicks so you never know if you've pressed it or not. Also there is slight digitation in the callers voice. Volume is fine if your indoors and quiet, but outside is harder to hear. Not a snug fit on your ear.

All I can ad is that my speaker phone works fine. Does not miss parts of words.

The system has been working without any problems. The speaker are adequate given the price. However, I rarely use it since I like to listen to music at night and this system has noearphone input.

Yes, I used mine for about a year successfully as a speakerphone, then suddenly nearly everyone I spoke with couldn't hear me clearly anymore. Works okay initially, but not reliable for me.

Hmm, it's a bit difficult to understand from the base station since the speaker is a bit small. But we listen to our messages through the headsets which is very easy to do.

I routinely use the speaker phone and have not encountered any complaints from callers. On my end the sound is clear. I have had the phones for a couple years now and am very happy with my purchase.
