Amazon.com Product Description
The Panasonic KX-TGA650B handset is a supplemental accessory for Panasonic's KX-TG6500B-series phone systems (required, sold separately). Operating on the same 5.8 GHz frequency and with the same digital spread spectrum signal technology as the base system, this handset supplies the clear, consistent connection you rely on every day, with features to spare. Access to the 50-station phonebook and caller ID/call waiting (with subscription to local service) is provided via the menu-driven three-line backlit LCD. A light-up antenna visually alerts you to new calls and messages, and you can even check your answering machine's messages from the handset. The handset includes a belt clip and a phone jack for a headset (sold separately) for hands-free conversation, and a locator sound lets you track down the handset even when it's buried in the couch cushions. The vertical design of the charging cradle makes this a perfect addition for bedside tables or small kitchen counters--wherever space is at a premium. Panasonic includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service. What's in the Box

 Easy way to expand super phone system January 29, 2005

When my existing cordless phone bit the dust, I didn't rush to purchase a replacement and took my time researching all available options. When it came right down to it, Panasonic's KX-TG6502B fit the bill. If there's a feature this 5.8 GHz system doesn't have, please tell me. I guess that's why Consumer Reports gave it such a high rating.
If you already own this system, I don't need to tell you how wonderful it is. Granted, it's not like you have any other options if you want to expand it other than the KX-TGA650B. But rest assured ... it's an easy two-button process to add a third and fourth handset. Not quite plug-and-play, but pretty darn close.
One of the best features of this system is that everything is accessible through each individual handset, especially the digital answering system. No longer do I need to walk across the house to play back my messages. And I don't have to worry about missing any -- even with the ringer turned off -- because of the small blinking light at the top of the antennae. Oh, and the blinking light also alerts me to an incoming call. Kind of like a "silent" mode.
You can expand this system up to four lightweight handsets in all and you don't even need a phone jack to place one anywhere in the house -- just a power outlet for the small, inobstrusive base.
But the longer I've owned this system -- nearly a year now and counting (updated review Nov 2005) -- the more I appreciate it for it's great design and problem-free operation. That's why I added on to it by re-investing in a third and fourth handset for two daughters.
 Perfection......almost!! February 4, 2006

I have owned many cordless phones ever since the 1st 46/49 Mhz phones came to market. I've owned Vtec's, Uniden's etc.
After hours of research, I bought this 2 line Panasonic. I've had it for about one year now, so I can give you a review based upon a good period of time owning it.
Here's the very basic reason why I selected this model:
1- Two lines
2-Expandable
3-5.8 gig frequency so it doesn't interfere with 2.4 gig device in my home.
Here's why it's the best cordless I've ever owned.
1- I could test it out for awhile before adding/investing in addtional handsets.
2- It fits in your hand like a normal phone. Many of the new cordless phones are getting so high tech looking and sleek that they are either hard or uncomfortable to hold. The Panasonic handset is the most comfortable on the market. Ever try cradling a cell phone or too small cordless between you neck and shoulder for a moment while you pick something up from the floor? Not easy, unless of course it's this phone.
3- The part of the phone that touches your ear is designed properly. Many of they newer competitors phones are convex at the earpiece instead of concave. Very uncomfortable... Panasonic...Perfect!!
4-Big LCD display. No need to squint to see this one.
5-Normal sized and properly spaced keypad buttons that are raised. You won't make an accidental dialing mistake with this phone and you won't feel like you need a pen to dial it.
6-You can set the volume of the phone to retain the setting you like. On many of the competitions phones, you may have to adjust the vol. to where you like it, every time you pick it up.
7-Great, very CLEAR sounding speakerphone built into each handset. Very useful when holding for i.e. a customer service dept.
8- Natural sounding on receive side. Good volume and sound reported by people I'm talking to. (Many competitors phones I've tried have low receive and/or transmit volume). On this one, no one has ever asked me, "Are you on the cordless"
9-Very rare that I ever get a broken or choppy signal. It's solid. It even works 100% around my yard/outside.
9-Good battery life/runtime.
10-Loaded with features. Like the fact that if something went wrong or one phone broke, my directory is still in other handset I have if I selected to download them initially to other phones.
11- Durable!! We have dropped this phone from about 3+ feet many times and it has not broken yet.
What needs improvement:
1- Missed call indication is almost useless. To clear it you MUST scroll through Caller ID past the missed call to clear it. Not a big deal...just useless.
2- (On the built in Voicemail)I can't save messages "as new" once I've listended to them. Problem if my wife is not home; then I see the message light blinking, I press it to listen to message. Of course the message turns out to be for my wife. But, now that I've listened to it, the message lamp is extinguished... Wife returns and has no idea there is a message for her. I have to leave her a note telling her to manually listen to "saved messages".
3- No battery backup. This was one feature I liked in some of the older VTEC phones. In a power failure, the battery backup let you continue to use your cordless phones. I don't think Panasonic or any other manufac. has a cordless 2 line with Battery backup.
So if you are looking for a great cordless 2 line... This is the one!! Almost perfect, but a definate against the competition.
Good phone, with a few minor difficiencies September 15, 2005

I bought this phone to overcome the WiFi networking problems I was having: if I was working over the WiFi with my laptop and got a telephone call, my 2.6 GHz phone would interfere with the signal, and I would get disconnected. For that purpose, I am very satisfied. I also really like the speakerphone operation, and the range of the phone around the house.
I also bought two other sets to interoperate with this base station. Because of the phone's range, I am able to place handsets around the house without cabling - very nice.
Some others have mentioned that the voice level is too low for them. I have not found this to be a problem.
If there is any deficiency, it is that multiple handsets do not interoperate fully. As an example, they all show how many calls were missed while I was away; but if I clear that message on one handset, it doesn't clear on all of them. I have to go around to each handset and clear it. Also, the phone books are not synched: you have to add numbers to each phone.
I would still recommend the phone system, especially for those that use WiFi/802.11 wireless networking.

The product is great, but be very careful on who the vendor is. I found this product for much less and sent back the one that I bought from ACE PHOTO AND DIGITAL and for a $240 product, they took $40 for a restocking fee.
