What kind of range do the handsets have from the base?

The range has been good for us, maybe not quite as far as the older panasonic cordless multi lines, but close. Maybe 150 feet in a big metal building, going through walls. VERY happy with these phones BTW, and have been using the older panasonics for 15 years

Real simple. There is a "pairing" feature which the user's manual walks you through. I have 3 handsets attached to a single base station. They all work great! Have been using them for about 18-months. No issues...

Plantronics states the operating range as "Up to 33 feet from phone or tablet". My experience has been that they begin to drop out at about 30-35 feet.

I'm very happy with it's range. I couldn't give you an exact number, but it works well enough that I never worry about dropping a call or connection when I'm within reason. Line of sight with the sending bluetooth device offers great range.

The range is not great - I'm guessing 3-4 miles? The walkies are perfect, otherwise.

Sorry Bill, I cannot answer that question. One more thing that's NOT good is that one of the handsets is already starting to malfunction. I can barely adjust the ringer anymore. Never would have purchased it if I knew the trouble it would be.

You can buy an additional handset at Amazon, they work fine. Distance from main may be over 150 feet. The base is good for two handset and two different numbers.However you can use only one handset at the same time, they also work like an intercom

The only difference I can see is the expanded range. More distant between the base and the handset on the 158 model. We are using it for our business and it working very well.

20-25 feet...I really don't go further than that, but the calls are clear from this range.

We also have 4 phones. We have used our HANDSET 3 about 50' from the Base Unit. There was only 1 wall between the base and handset. Unsure what a 2nd wall would do for reception. When the cell was connected by bluetooth, the cell was about 5' from base unit. Very pleased with units.

Carlos - CL81201 has exceptional range potential; however, range can never be predicted, as it varies from one environment to another. Buy with confidence, as our phones feature unsurpassed range. Thanks!

I do not know personally - have not done a range test. Samsung's specs claim 150 meters (about 300 feet). Actual distance capability would of course vary, depending upon other factors such as interference, obstacles in the propagation path, etc. sorry i don't have a better answer.

volume on the handsets is very good. I am useing for the last 7 years. you can high or low or silent mode & same thing with base corded phone.you can block some phone calls by your hand sets.

You can answer the phone from either the phone's answer call button or by a quick press on the bluetooth head set. The front presses/depresses on the front side near the top. When my hands are busy, I sometimes answer the phone by pressing the bluetooth against my shoulder. The range is about 30 feet. I can confirm that because I have done it and you still get a good reception as long as you are clear of obstuctions. You get a little static if you have a wall between you and the phone, but it still works pretty well. I strongly recommend this bluetooth.

This phone is the Panasonic KX-TG4772B sold by Costco (click on my review here to go straight to Panasonic KX-TG4772B, which has 130+ reviews, including a lengthy one I wrote which described my range tests). That's a better source for reviews. The short answer is that range depends on what is between the handset and the base, but I easily got to 200 feet. With clear space between me and the base, I got past 400 feet, but that is pushing it. (ranges measured on Google Earth) If you go to the Panasonic KX-TG4772B reviews, you can search for "range," and you'll find my review with much more details, plus other reviews that commented on range. If my reviews are helpful, please say so, as I have all but given up on writing reviews as I spent literally hours investigating writing, and only 1 person has actually said my review was helpful. I purchased mine at Costco, and it was labeled both "KX-TG242SK" and "KX-TG4772B."

I'm sorry that I really can't answer that. I returned the VTech phone and blue tooth before trying it out because the phone didn't have enough distance coverage.

I have four of these phones and they all have a good range. My apartment is on the second floor of the building and the phone operates within 75 feet even outside of the apartment.
