Uniden’s CEZA1998 is a high quality cordless handset and base unit that has plenty of features to offer. Audible caller ID is very helpful in many instances as you can know who is calling before bothering to even walk to the phone. The caller ID is located in the phone’s base and holds up to 50 calls at a time. The caller ID is only on the base and will not show up on the handset but that’s where the audible caller ID comes in. The base even has an intercom feature making the CEZA1998 practical in certain office settings. A frequency of 5.8 GHz is used. This does much to lower the chance of accidental eavesdropping by the lower frequencies which are more often seen in cordless phones. More of a benefit though is that this frequency will not interfere with the many network devices that operate on 2.4 GHz.
Large, clearly readable and easy to push buttons are back lit for maximum expediency. A common report from many cell phone users is the ringer being too quiet; not so with the CEZA1998. Ringer volume and speaker volume are adjustable and can be set to an amply high level. The handset is also compatible with hearing aids. Some cordless phones are known to cause electronic interference with hearing aids (despite the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1991 and the FCC). The CEZA1998 is good to go on the issue.
The handset’s display can be set to display English, Spanish or French. Call screening is included and lets you create a list of numbers which will be automatically rejected if someone calls you from them. For speed dialing you can set four numbers to be dialed with only the touch of one button. Ten other numbers can also be set to a two button combo for dialing. The battery life offers up to seven hours of talk time or up to two weeks if left in standby mode. The BT-800 battery is a nickel cadmium. A one year warranty comes with the CEZA1998.
Up to 15 minutes of digital voice can be saved on the built in digital answering machine. The CEZA1998 provides all of these benefits causing it to add up to an excellent option for your next cordless home or office phone. Due to the higher frequency and the high value of the CEZA1998 itself, this cordless phone will give you crystal clear talk time for years to come.
