Our first set of Clarity Cordless phones stopped working. It was not the batteries, it was an internal problem. So, we look for alternatives to Clarity. Although we found other brands of "hearing aid compatible" cordless phones, none of them were close to the quality of sound of Clarity.Except for the color this telephone looks like our old ones, they are not! Our original Clarity units were over 10 years+ old and although they were an immense help we had problems with interference with our computer speakers and land line phones. This is no longer a problem.The new Clarity Cordless phones have a better more defined tone setting. This is very important because it accomidates different types of hearing impairments. A volume control is a great feature however, without the ability to adjust the tone it just listening to a louder blurred voice.The booster, for those of us with slight or no hearing loss, "don't touch that button"!The brighter screen is much easier to read and the talking caller ID is great for avoiding those unwanted robocalls!Whether this is your first purchase of an amplified phone , or a replacement for one that is no longer working, for our money this is the best phone on the market today.It is important to note, we paid full price for these telephones. We were not compensated in any way, nor do we work for Clarity.
