- Dead on Arrival...not once but Twice!
- I ordered the phone, hooked it up, charged it as instructed for 12 hours and then...nothing! The handset would not activate at all. Almost appears as though the battery is defective and won't hold a charge. I don't know, but I sent it back and the replacement had the same problem! After getting a second non-functioning phone I think I will look for something else. Too bad really as it appears it would have been a good phone...if it actually worked.

- Excelent product
- I first bought this phone for my great-aunt who had always loved talking on the phone but since her hearing became more difficult had stopped calling people and wouldn't even answer her phone most of the time. This phone changed her life! A few months later I bought this for my grandmother, who also loved it.

- Clarity C435 works good, but could be improved
- The Clarity C435 cordless telephone has been in use by elderly family members for only a week. It does let them hear better, and we notice that they ask for fewer "repeats." At higher volumes, the phone introduces a buzz or humming sound, and the users have complained about that.
The telephone could be greatly improved by two fairly simple upgrades, neither of which should add significantly to the price: 1. Provide lithium-ion batteries, and 2. Provide internal battery backup to the memory. Another improvement, perhaps more expensive, would be to provide a battery status indicator; as it is, the user has no idea how low the battery charge is, until it gets down to about 2 minutes of use remaining.
The rechargable batteries in the handset are not li-ion type, and their life will be significantly shortened by leaving the handset in the charging base; with li-ions, this particular problem would be eliminated, and by letting the user just keep the phone on the charger base might reduce the need for an "amount of charge" indicator.
Also, the base unit (where, apparently, the memory is stored) will retain its memory for only about 6 hours in event of a power outage. This could be fixed by installing a 9-volt battery for backup. This could not add much to the manufacturing cost, as $5 electric alarm clocks have such a provision.
Overall, the telephone DOES improve communications for the hard-of-hearing, but it could use improvement in other areas. - 2009-04-18, 1 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
