Is it possible to use the handests in speakerphone mode while charging in a base station?

Negative -- the handsets must be removed from the base station to function.

The speakerphone is in the handset, but I although I love this idea, they've never stayed connected via Bluetooth to my phones, maybe they've improved the technology, but I've now bought two different versions and they still don't stay connected.

That's the method I'm currently charging my speaker. Works like a charm! ;D

To summarize the other posters: You can start a call with phone on the charger and you can take it off and continue talking. But if you put the phone back on the cradle it disconnects the call. Definitely a design flaw they don't seem to plan on fixing.I use it for long business meetings as well and keep it on the cradle the whole time. If I take it off to walk around a bit I can't return to cradle. No idea on battery life, but should be several hours at least.

I use the USB cord to charge the phone. And for the speakers to work, there's a switch on the left. Just turn it on the sync w/ your phone.

I had the same issue, phone only worked in speakerphone mode. I had to return it.

Absolutely!!! You can adjust the top holders in so they aren't over your speaker jack and you can adjust the bottom ones so you can still plug the charger in.

Yes you can, but you probably won't be able to hear when your phone rings, as it rings through the speakers only when on the "Aux" channel.

Yes you can connect to the speaker and play music as you normally would while the speaker is charging.

you can not. the phone needs to be plugged in to the power sorce and to the modem as well.however in speaker mode is very efficient

You can use them in any mode while charging however using them wired while charging causes a lot of buzzing since the audio jack is right next to the USB port.

It´s not possible, because the speakerphone is wire pluged to the base, and the base is pluged to internet.

You are able to use the devices while they are charging. Not entirely sure about conversation, but able to use internet and apps

Yes you can as there is a Micro USB/Microphone port on top of each radio and Two contacts on the bottom for the charger base. A "regular" USB cable is too big and will not work.

Yes you can. These are awesome and work great for my Father who is hard-of-hearing...There is one "base" charger for both speakers. You can also charge one and use the other in the room.

The base does allow a speakerphone call while the handset is charging. However, there is no headset mic that I can locate on either the handsets or the speakerphone/recorder main set. By the way, I am quite pleased with the complete unit. I have five (5) handsets in locations throughout the house and an additional handset with the main speakerphone/recorder. I also have my cell phone hooked to the main unit and receive calls coming from my cell using my handsets. I previously had a Panasonic unit with 5 handsets. The Panasonic set did have several handset problems which required replacing the handsets. Additionally this AT & T set is much clearer and has a much longer range. I can use the handset anyplace in my yard or neighbors yard. I could not do that with the Panasonic system.

yes - each handset has a "speaker" button that works just fine. I use it all the time. :)
