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

Nice corded phone. The display is not bad, it could be brighter when it's not lit. But it lights up when the phone rings so it's very easy to read then. Everything feels like decent quality.

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.

Great phone! Just remember it is a regular phone with no built in answering machine as was a model I bought previously. It works with the voicemail from my provider though. The numbers are easy to read on the keypad and the display as well. I have had no issues with this phone so far. It's black so if you don't like they color you need to look at another phone. It is not heavy and will easily fit on a table or desk.

The battery compartment design is better than the CL4940 design. Easier to load and to catch leaking batteries before they ruin the product. The plastic quality is superior to overseas knock offs. Extra-Large Tilt Display is the Best for viewing.

I searched a LONG time to find a quality CORDED phone that has speaker, big buttons and easy to use speed dial numbers. My father has cognitive/dexterity problems that progressed to the point he could not dial standard/cell phones well (or remember to keep them charged).This phone has been a Godsend and has allowed him to make calls when he otherwise would not have been able to.Beyond ease of use, my dad speaks very softly and both the handset and speaker phone have EXCELLENT microphones. Sometimes it is tough to tell when he has switched from handset to speakerphone.Stop looking now and buy this phone!! You won’t regret it.

It did not come with a telephone line cord only a cord to attach the hand set to the phone. The buttons are big obviously but feel cheap when pressing. Other than those two issues, it's just fine, serves it's purpose. I can hear great on it and see the info displayed on the screen good and the volume on the ringer goes from off to several strengths. It also has a volume for hearing the person on the other end of the line. Main complaint is it did not come with a land line phone cord for the wall to the phone.

I have two of these phones and I think they are amazing! I have arthritis and the key pad has large buttons, easy to see, and the display shows the caller ID really well---muted and not overly bright. The function keys are easy to follow as well. Was shipped quickly and packaged very well.

I have had one of these for several years and it works fine. I recently bought another for a different room in my home and discovered that its internal clock function loses time, many minutes per day. Figuring that it was a defect in my new purchase, I returned the phone, requesting a replacement. The replacement behaved the same way! Then, I saw what was happening: With each incoming call, the phone's clock display would lose a minute. The more calls that came in, the more it would lose. This is clearly a design defect. Doesn't the factory test their embedded firmware changes before they release them to the field? My older copy of this phone works fine. Don't buy this phone until the factory corrects this design problem. Too bad that there's no way to know when that will occur. I am returning the replacement for my recent purchase and will choose an alternative phone. C'mon AT&T, you can do better than this. Update: I purchased a similar phone, an RCA model 1113. The RCA phone has a built-in clock function, but no means for the user to set the date/time. With incoming calls, the RCA sets its date/time with data sent as part of the incoming call's caller ID information - there's no user interaction with this. Apparently, my local provider (Cox, via VoIP) has their network clock mis-adjusted, 11 minutes slow, as displayed on the RCA phone. It could be (this is speculation) that the AT&T phones were incrementally adjusting themselves to this incorrect network clock reference. I didn't keep my recent AT&T phones (original and replacement) long enough to determine whether they would cease to lose time once they aligned themselves with this incorrect network reference, but it could very well be the case. If new phones use this mechanism, their instructions should include a description of this process, and a disclaimer that if the network clock is wrong, the phone will display the incorrect time. This feature is apparently supposed to be clever, but there can be unintended consequences.
