Perhaps a tad expensive but, overall a nice handset

Love my Ooma great handset.

I love the Ooma HD2 Handset so much that I will be purchasing 2 more to replace my V-Tech phones.

In terms of features, I am happy with this handset as it seems to be on par with the HD1 and better than most other wireless handsets, though it certainly doesn' t offer what it advertises - smartphone features?

Until then, you are stuck with an expensive proprietary handset that is lacking many mainstream features.

They've done nothing to improve them over the past few years, and it is sad that this great base product (Ooma Telo) has such a weak handset to go with it.

Likely, it was a defective handset, but I wasn't impressed with it and decided to return it and hang on to my original 1st generation handset

I can't understand why a company with one product line cannot design a reliable handset.

Ergonomically, this handset is less than ideal - when holding the phone with your cheek and shoulder, you will hang up on your call

Much less than 90 days and the handset goes dark when the phone rings and locks up the Ooma system so it cannot be answered from any other phone either

An update, this handset lost connection to the hub and now won't connect anymore - reset after reset, new batteries, on the charger for more than a day now (so full of power) and still no connection to the hub!Another thing, I have all the connections properly in place (I have used the system already), however

This message essentially froze the handset again

I purchased two handsets to go along with our other two handset for the ooma tele... however I was not told that the two handset we bought only a year ago would be rendered useless by registering the new HD2 handsets

I've saved a load of money by switching to Ooma and highly recommend both this handset and their service.

It has a serious charging problem, will not charge, will not hold a charge, randomly starts to charge, generally the handset is dead.

Glad to recommend Ooma service, just use your existing handsets.

Overall, I do not like this Handset, I am returning it .

Overall, I like the Ooma HD2 handset, and would recommend it to you if it meets your needs.

The handset itself is solid - it feels like any other real land line phone.

As much as I like the overall OOMA service (5 stars), this handset is clumsy at best

This would have five stars, except for two reasons: 1) the handset is too smooth and easy to drop -- and when it's dropped, the tabs on the battery cover will break; and 2) the pins on the charging base have a tendency to get stuck, which prohibits the handset from charging.

I highly recommend this handset for any Ooma customer

cheap handset, buttons don't work well, luckily I rarely use it, have it for mainly giving my number to people I do not want calling me on my cell.

This handset is awesome.

If it weren't for the existing Uniden handsets which work fine when connected to the Telo, I would have dumped the Ooma Telo and its handsets long ago

The sound is at least as clear as the older handsets.

Very nice handset to use with Ooma

Perfect second handset for my home

The handset is great and really nice.

They did diagnostics and determined the handset was defective

Really liked it at first; the service provided is good but the handsets are terrible.

Overall this handset is super easy to set up to use on the Ooma device, lightweight, comfortable, and easy to use

Omma telo works well but this handset is horrible!

Coming from Ooma the remote handset is disappointing

The handset feels a little thick in the hand compared to most of the cordless handsets currently available.

This is a great little handset.

Like the handset.

Bought as a bundle with the Ooma base, and while the base works properly, this handset never did

If that doesn't work, then it's definitely the handset

I finally got all 4 working and experienced terrible range compared to much less expensive handsets.

Nice working handset, but kind of muffled audio.

The Panasonic cordless phone system I replaced it with is better in approximately every way, and cost $139 for the base and 5 handsets (did I mention that the Telo can only support 4 handsets

I love this ooma handset with my ooma telo

I also bought a cheap phone from Walmart for $12 that works perfectly and feels a lot better than the overpriced Ooma handset

This should not be a problem if you only have one HD1 and are looking to replace it, but if you have 3 or 4 then buying one HD2 handset would limit you to a single usable handset.

First, the good: This handset shows a banner on the screen when you have voicemails

Based on my experience, I would not recommend the OOMA HD2 handsets.

and I have to clean the base and the handset from the nasty acidic residue all the time

This handset is a huge improvement over the original Ooma handset

Good solid handset.

This handset is most importantly easy to read, the keys are larger and easier to use, I love the DND and Voicemail buttons and the battery is also lasting longer than the last handset

This handset is a great complement to your base station, much better than trying to use a regular phone attached to the base station.

-- I'm not sure that I can recommend the HD2 handset.

The directional navigation buttons appear to be the only way to use the Ooma-specific configuration and functions, which makes this not worthwhile as a handset

They are truly the worst handsets I have ever used.

I would not recommend this handset.

While I have been very impressed with the base station and the value it achieves, why bother putting out a handset if you can't at least get the basic functionality right.

I would not recommend spending $60 on this single cheap handset that isn't even necessarily better than any other cordless phone, I would actually argue my $25 V-Tech cordless from 2000 is better than this

Maybe in another product generation or two this will be worth buying, but until then use your Ooma base station with a nice Panasonic cordless handset.

I Love the Ooma handset

This is the second handset that I've purchased and they both died

Second, the handset has had charging problems ever since it arrived (less than a week ago)

Their handsets are bulky and heavy.

Good mid-priced handset

This would have five stars, except for two reasons: 1) the handset is too smooth and easy to drop -- and when it's dropped, the tabs on the battery cover will break; and 2) the pins on the charging base have a tendency to get stuck, which prohibits the handset from charging.

The HD2 is not a great handset, but for the price it is OK

I love the new handset!!

Also, the handset, while sleek, will not stand up on its own, making speakerphone use difficult.

I reach for my other portable handset every time...

These handsets are extremely fragile

I like these handsets too,

Ooma has worked great for our home phones, their handsets do what they advertise, make and recieve calls

I actually have given up on the device and went to walmart to purchase a reputable handset to plug into the box.

This handset is horribly designed - we keep hanging up on people and turning on Do Not Disturb because the Talk button is not in the same spot as EVERY other phone made.

I went back and forth for a while as to whether or not I should buy this handset to complement my Ooma Telo

This is a great handset, but by using linx devices, this was not necessary.

What's the purpose of trying to save money with Ooma when you have to buy a Handset every year to replace their crappy handsets

I'll contact Ooma for a replacement of this apparently defective handset and update my review when I receive a good unit

When this happens, the handsets (all of them) have lost their connection to the base unit.

I love Ooma service and the base station works well but this handset is disappointing

The handset felt cheap.

I am surprised that this version 2 handset has so many flaws, as these are all issues that should have been worked out long ago.

Perhaps a tad expensive but, overall a nice handset

What gives?The base station is ok, but this handset is absolutely terrible

Love the handset, but would like to get Ooma to work with my Amazon Alexa unit.

From the website it looked like the handset could do a lot of cool things but when it came down to it the short battery life and what feels like cheap plastics earned this a return trip back to amazon.

Wish Ooma would get their act together and come up with a decent handset.

Rather than accepting that the handset was defective, they'd just keep "fixing" the problem

I just can't recommend this handset unless the special features of the HD2 appeal to you.

The handset feels cheap

the handset is very difficult and uncomfortable to hold.

I returned this HD2 to Amazon for a replacement, in case I just had a defective handset.

Handset is nice

First of all, the handsets feel cheap.

This is an excellent handset for my use.

I had really hoped that this handset would indeed have "HD clarity" and be a good replacement for my Panasonic cordless phone

This could have, and should have, been a great handset but for some real bonehead decisions made during the design process.

Great voip handset for Ooma

Unbelievably, this "smart handset" does not allow pauses to be programmed into dialed numbers!!!

…the best handset I have ever used.

Great handset

Handset was easy to link to the main base.

Awful handset, sincerely just get anything else.

Once or twice a week I find that a handset loses contact with the Telo and it must be rebooted by holding down the red button.

These handsets are the WORST!

4 handsets is enough for my home office, my living room, my wife's sewing room and one of our 3 bedrooms

This handset is much more stable and user friendly

The OPTIONAL handsets are ridiculously expensive and problematic.

In short, this handset exceeds my expectations.

I think I received a faulty handset

It's not that great a handset to start

The HD2 is a nice handset.

I want to like the handset, I really do.

And now my old handset is now incompatible with my updated Telo

(I like the ooma service, but I hate the handset.)You're stuck with this handset if you want a cheap way to access both phone lines or if you want to use the automatic-second-line feature (which I dislike intensely)

I should have paid attention to the reviews, these handsets are horrible and overpriced

My original impression of these units a little over a year ago: "These handsets are great

Occasionally all of the handsets lose contact with the Telo and rebooting them doesn't help

Ooma, please give us a better handset, with the clarity and features that you advertised

Overall I have been very happy with the Ooma service - I left a 5 star review on the unit/service - but in retrospect I regret buying this handset

This is a nice handset while it works

A nice handset, but with some rough edges

That seems horrible customer service to me, and nothing said only 4 handsets were supported

After the HD2 Handset new software is downloaded the old handset doesn't work anymore

A very nice handset to complement your Ooma Service.

and I want to cash in by switching this for a model that works as it should.

the hd2 handset works very well, and syncs well with the ooma device, as well as with the telo wireless adapter.

otherwise it would hit the garbage can as fast as you can say "goodby".

Works as it should.

In about 15-30 minutes, my contacts appeared on the HD2 handset, and they do work as they should

The call quality is just as good as with the original ooma handset - some others here have complained that the new-ish handset isn't really a quality call experience, but I believe this depends on where your telo device is in your home

The back is also scratched as if someone tried to reopen it after glueing it shut.

The phone looks good, feels good (as in size to hold in your hand while talking pervs)
