Panasonic 2.4 GHz GigaRange Cordless Phone Model KX-TG2432 | Initial Checkout

[@thedarkcave8403]

CallerIQ was a service provided by openLCR. It could give you weather info, news, and even music through your phone if I'm remembering right. Basically a super early smartphone-ish thing... Do these have the Light ID function? A relative has a KX-TG5421 and you can set the color of the visual ringer for phonebook entries.

Thanks for the information, that sounds neat. Too bad it didn't catch on. I'm not sure if they do, I will be recording some more video of this in the future so I will try to remember to check then.

Our old KX-TG5432 had a ringtone downloaded via that feature, but as far as I know, we never used it. The phone was bought new when we bought it in ~2005.

@@techwithtyler20 I’ve never heard of downloading ringers into these phones.

Jordan U That was one of Caller IQ’s features, just wasn’t used very much I guess.

All my Family and the people that I know had that Phone since 2003 to Late 2014.

Thanks for letting me know.

Panasonic tends to have the least intuitive remote functionality, the voice sounds good but it gives you one function at a time and you have to cycle through until it says the one you want. It's nice that it tells you what to do and arguably this way of doing it could be easier for some people because it requires less memorization, but if you remote access enough I'd assume you would eventually get used to the button layout of all the functionalities at once, which would then allow access to what you want far faster.

[@techwithtyler20]

You don't have to do it that way. You can also use the following commands: 1: Repeat 2: Skip 4: New messages 5: All messages 7: Record greeting (not available on all models) 9: Stop 0: Answering system off *4: Erase message *5: Erase all messages *#: Hang up (newer models only)

[@JordanU]

Thanks for letting me know.

[@mattsamaroo1353]

Also, when there was a new message, the indicator light on the base unit wasn't flashing like it should.

[@JordanU]

It was probably just not visible under the bright light.

[@neftalimartinez2898]

I got this in 2003 at Fry's electronics but it's white.

[@JordanU]

Thanks for letting me know.

[@techwithtyler20]

In the 2.4/5.8 era, there were several color options for some models. For example, the KX-TG5634 comes in white or grey.

[@mattsamaroo1353]

The next time you do a Panasonic home phone video, can you turn on the message alert feature?

[@JordanU]

Maybe

Awesome video of the Panasonic KX-TG2432 2.4 GHz Digital (Digitan) Gigarange Cordless Telephone Duo with Speakerphone, the Caller IQ on the base & handsets & a digital (digitan) answering system, which has the older voice, Jordan!

Thanks, Aaron.

OK

[@theericfreeze1493]

Go figure, my aunt and uncle also had a set but I never that signficant and just another Panasonic phone.

[@theericfreeze1493]

By the way they bought the phone in 2005 and still in use to this day

[@JordanU]

That’s impressive, seems like nobody keeps things for that long anymore.

[@maddmaxx636]

Geese honk lol!!!

[@JordanU]

It’s true

[@wyattoneil2219]

You might need need to turn it over again that not the model

[@JordanU]

That doesn't make sense.
