AT&T CL2940 Corded Phone with Speakerphone, Extra-Large Tilt Display/Buttons, Caller ID/Call Waiting and Audio Assist, Black

I needed a hands free desk phone with mute. The tilted display is outstanding and a major improvement. This allows the local area code to be defaulted so you only have to dial 7 numbers locally, which is nice. Built in caller ID. Excellent quality and does everything expected.

Update: 5/15/20 - After using this phone for a year, I have raised my overall rating to 5 stars!! This is not a fancy phone, but it gets the job done well at a very low cost. Mount it correctly and you will have a great phone with lots of features, a display that you can easily read from 6 feet away, and sound quality that is excellent. All I really needed was a caller ID display on a phone in my shop. We get about 8 or 10 robo calls a day, and I just wanted to be able to screen calls without running to another room to see a caller ID. This phone is great for that. The display is clear and the quality of the audio is pretty good. I would have given the phone 5 stars, but the quality of the audio on the speaker phone is not good. Yes, you can tell what someone is saying, but the speakerphone audio quality is poor. If the quality was better, this would have been a 5-star review, but then this would likely have been a $60 to $100 phone. This phone was what I needed. Update 3/3/19: I forgot to mention that the phone mounts very well on a wall. It has the standard two pin spacing slots on the rear for a wall plate. If you look at the side view photos submitted by people that say the phone does not wall mount, you can see that they are using only one of the two available mounting slots. If the instructions are followed, there is no problem using a wall mount.

I bought this phone when my ancient desk 30-year old AT&T desk phone started having problems. Seeing the photos of the CL2940, I liked the large alpha-numeric display. But, once I set up the phone, my biggest problem with the phone is the display. Yes, it is large, but it is not lighted, and the photos online and on the box are not a true representation of the actual display. There letter and number characters don't stand out. When in caller ID mode or stored phone numbers mode, the letters and numbers do not stand out against the background LCD segments. None of the 4 contrast settings makes much of a difference. Of course, the lack of a light means this phone can only be used in lighted room; it's not suitable for a bedroom or other dimly lit space. I'm using mine on my computer desk on the right of the mouse pad. My fluorescent desk lamp is attached to the left side the desk, and the phone's display is barely visible unless I pick up the phone and move it closer to the lamp. This may not be a problem for other people, but you should know about it before you decide to purchase the phone. I'm pretty good at setting up gizmos, but I was stumped by the step for entering " Home area code" and then a few "Local area codes". Even the detailed user manual (which you need to download from ATT), doesn't make it clear what this is for. I finally left the "Home area code" blank, and entered our county's 3-digit area code as the "Local area code". It works.

Great basic phone. Attaches to a landline.

This phone is perfect. It is being used at my house as a bedroom landline. I like everything about it. The display screen is easy to read. The ringer is pleasant to hear—not an annoying ringtone.

This phone does not have an answering function. The screen cannot be backlit, making it difficult for seniors to see. Screen does not tilt up all the way. Handset volume is excellent. Other features work well.

This is a speakphone that is great for a home office. It uses the "old time" phone jack plug. I plugged into my internet modem box as my service package includes a VoIP landline and it worked immediately. Speaker is clear plenty loud for me, a middle age male, set in the middle volume range. I recently used it for a condo board meeting for some people who called in, board members all commented it was easier to hear than the iphone we had been using. It also has large text and numbers if your reading glasses are not in reach of the phone (... for us folks of a certain age) I use it for meetings for those "work from home" days: it is far better for long meetings than the earbud I was using on my cell and sound quality is better than the cell. The earbud would hurt my ear after about 30 minutes so this is a better option for me. The lit mute and speaker on lights are handy for conference calls. Entering numbers into the directory was straightforward and the speed/ directory dial works fast and easy. Although some of the better sound is likely due to the VoIP quality and not the phone itself, it does a better job at filling the room with sound than any cell speaker I have used. If you do conference call meetings in your office, you will like this phone - plus you can look stuff up on the cell without all of those handling noises!

Muy buen teléfono, gran display para ver los números, buen sonido y varias funciones, gran opción para una oficina y se ve mucho mejor que los que venden en los súper mercados o en tiendas de electro una a un precio muy accesible

nice product.

This seemed exactly the product I had been looking for: corded, big caller display and attractive. The first thing I discovered was that the caller display was so pale that I had difficulty reading it, even with glasses on. I was so frustrated that I phoned the US but the more they explained, the more I realised that the UK system was the difference. The next thing I noticed was that my callers needed to put me on speaking phone to hear me. And finally one day there was a loud buzzing noise and it packed up altogether. Very disappointed. Hopeless in the UK.

This is an excellent land-line phone. I've been using the same model as a desk phone for over a year, and just purchased another to have as our kitchen wall phone. Both are working perfectly. This model is easy to use and doesn't need to be plugged into an electrical plug since it's battery powered. While the display is not backlit, the screen contrast is adjustable making it relatively easy to read in glare-free normal lighting.
