Definitely a good buy for us. It is plenty loud for my son to hear while we are driving in the car or just at home. There was no plastic tab in the back of the phone at all. He will play with it for a long time and loves to hear the voice say "hello." and "it's for you." He'll try to talk back to the phone and can recognize the numbers on the screen. My 18-month-old son loves to play with cell phones so we thought we'd get him one of his own.
He has dropped it a few times outside on the sidewalk and it has a couple scratches from that, but still works perfectly. There is a space for one, however. He absolutely loves this phone. I bought this toy after reading the reviews. I read about the "volume issues" it seems to have, but we bought this phone at a department store, took it home and took it out of the box, and the volume did not change at all.
It is a little loud if you put the speaker right up to your ear, but my son holds it too low on his ear to do that.
This toy is way too loud. But once he learns this, i will have to take the phone away from him.
But again, we will not be able to use it for much longer. It hurt my ears, i can't imagine what it will do to his.
I have pressed the buttons and held it up to my ear, and it is extremely loud. I will give it 2 stars because it is fun, and my son seems to enjoy it.
I have the opposite problem of what a lot of other reviewers mentioned. For now it is ok, because my son is too young to know to put it up to his ear.
I really don't want my child to go deaf from a toy.
It would be better if you could record your own voice for your baby to talk to. My son likes this toy, but i don't think he thinks its much like a real phone. But, the one thing about this phone that bugs me the most is that it says I love you, which is just creepy coming from a toy.
my nephew loves playing with adult's cell phones so I thought this will keep him interested, but he wasn't really. Go for something that can really teach you the alphabet and play longer tunes. Otherwise, it doesn't sing the whole alphabet song which I would love for any child to learn. It does teach you the alphabet by saying each letter only when you press that specific letter on the phone. Though, I do wish the tunes are much longer. I bought this toy for my one and a half year old nephew and he seems to love it.for a short period. When you press the tune button (the 3rd button on top), the tune is super short and he would have to keep pressing it which loses a child's patience after a short while. It's definitely durable and will not break if you drop it.
Just a bar or two of melody. I'd skip this one. A voice says "1-2-3." It isn't close enough to a real cell or house phone to encourage phone play; beyond the robot voice saying counting or saying abc's in threes, depending on which # you press, it's not much of an educational toy either. Push buttons, get noise. She's 10 months now and is bored with it. Baby could take it or leave it when she got it at 6 months. Kind of a frenetic little toy that doesn't do much beyond lighting up and flashing. And the songs in the music mode are too short.
