The Ultimate Waterproof Cordless Phone
Arguably the Best Cordless Phone

Until receiving a waterproof cordless phone as a gift, I had no idea that they could be so useful. The rugged DECT 6.0 cordless phone now connects my workshop with the outside world and doubles as an outdoor intercom. Several additional handsets were subsequently added. It took minutes to connect them as no phone jack wiring is required.

Must Have Gadgets

Waterproof phones are not just gadgets for guys. Our additional handsets were located in the kitchen, laundry and by the pool. They are also ideal garage phones and perfect when washing the car or mowing the lawn.

Our teenage daughter also tells us they're cool electronic gadgets. That's because she's been known to take cordless phones in the shower. As we no longer need to replace cordless phones quite as often we also think they're pretty cool.

Uniden Waterproof Phones

Uniden phones are clearly the best waterproof cordless phones. The most recently introduced model is the Uniden WXI3077 Waterproof DECT 6.0 Phone. It's a tough phone complying with JIS7 waterproof specifications meaning it can be immersed in a meter of water for 30 minutes and still work. They look and feel like quality products, but without the industrial edge. It's a niche that Uniden has clearly set out to dominate. Other options include Uniden 5.8 GHz, DECT and 900 MHz phones. Furthermore, if you already own a Uniden DECT or 5.8 GHz expandable phone, you will almost certainly find a compatible waterproof Uniden handset.

At first glance the Uniden phones have a very striking color scheme. To our mind it's appropriate to the locations where waterproof phones will be used and certainly reduces the possibility of losing a handset.

Panasonic Splash Resistant Cordless Phone

Interestingly the company that makes the Tough Book laptop decided against making a Uniden style "tough phone." The Panasonic KX-TG9361B was Panasonic's drop resistant - splash resistant DECT 6.0 phone, but it's no longer available as best we can tell. It was nothing like a Tough Book or the rugged Uniden waterproof phones. In fact at a glance was almost indistinguishable from any other Panasonic cordless phone.

Summary

Uniden clearly "owns" the waterproof cordless phone niche. They're tough, cool, non-slip, submersible and float.
