Learn about the Do Not Buy This series here


Product : Panasonic Cordless Phone 3600


This is a basic and the cheapest cordless phone from Panasonic. Here is a quick round up of Pros and cons of Panasonic cordless 3600.


Cons: ( This is a do not buy series remember)

1. The base unit has no battery: This is the most tiring of all problems. In a country like India where there is no guarantee of continuous power supply, this is a big problem. You won't be able to take a call during a power outage and if the power goes out while in a call, it gets immediately disconnected.
2. No LCD display: There is no LCD display on the handset so you cant be sure about the numbers you are punching in. Of course no basic phone has this funcationality but it feels kinda awkward on a handset may be because of the resemblance to cell phones.
3. Ring volume too low : there are very few incremental steps for the ringing volume and even the topmost one isn't particularly loud.
4. Virtually no feedback on the buttons : keyboard feels more like a cushion than a button. No clicks,
5. no sudden resistance nothing.
6. Loudness of the headpiece: speaker in the headpiece is not much loud. You might get trouble hearing clearly in a busy room or outside home.

Pros of this product include its low price and good build quality.


If you are planning to buy this phone, do yourself a favor and find another one. I got mine as a gift from EBay so I didn't lose any money on it. I think panasonic cordless 3600 does not qualify as a product you can spend your money on.



Price of Panasonic cordless 3600 in India ranges from 1300 to 1700 INR.
