Title: Great Landline Phone
Review: This is just what I was looking for to put on my bedside table; it looks great and works extremely well. I like to have at least one corded landline phone is my home without all the bells and whistles and this fit the bill perfectly and is so stylish.

Title: I adore this, but it didn’t last ):
Review: EDIT: This is the cutest phone, but it didn’t last more than a few months. The front clear turnstile looked shattered and the sound began crackling after only a few weeks.It’s beautiful and I love the phone. I wish the base was a little heavier, so I didn’t have to put the receiver down while I dial the numbers 0 and 9. I also wish it was a traditional ring. The ring is very high pitched.

Title: Great phone
Review: I bought this phone for my 8 yr old daughter. She absolutely loved the color and the classic rotary dial. She was able to make and complete her first call on her third try.

Title: Well worth the money
Review: If you want to know the barometric pressure, the latest stock prices or your running a call center don’t buy this phone. Its just a very cute simple phone. The dial works great, the sound is very good and I had to put the ringer on low. I got the white one & couldn’t be happier.

Review: I should have read the description better. I love the look but it’s plastic not metal and that’s my fault. But it works great.

Title: Relive using the first Bell handset telephone from 1930
Review: The first popular desk telephones from Ma Bell were the candlesticks that dated from the turn of the century. Then in 1930 they introduced the handset design that made it so much easier to use. That was the oval shaped model 202. Still needed the separate ringer box. Used throughout the 1930s and 40s until the next big evolution of an inner bell with the model 402, the otherwise known “Lucille Ball” phone.This modernized Otis retro design is an updated version of the W.E. model 202. Has a loud buzzer inside for the ringer that the original lacked. Great sound, and the rotary dial is supported by both pulse and touch tone settings.

Review: OPIS is a German Company responsible for the design and development of this retro style phone, although it is made in China. It closely resembles the Western Electric model D1/202 circa 1930 Art Deco period phone, which was a `workhorse’ in the USA during the period. This retro phone has an authentic appearance, notwithstanding its modern plastic casing, (the 1930 original was moulded in zinc alloy). Installation is simplicity itself; just plug it in – no display screens and memories to set up. It comes with a UK adaptor for connection to BT Phone Outlets (or a BT answering machine in my case) and supports DTMF Menu Control (Touch Tone Dialling) suitable for telephone Banking etc. It also allows last number redialling – #/R.The ring tone is electronic and not a bell. The original 1930’s phone had a separate bell base that could be attached. There is no room for a bell in the phone itself, as it is so svelte. There is a Hi/Low volume switch under the base of the model I received, although it appears that some earlier versions may not have this. It comes configured for touch-tone operation; pulse dialling is not much of an option for modern applications. The casing on the black version resembles a Bakelite finish that gives the phone a more solid look. Sound through the handset is loud and clear, and the length of cable connecting the phone to a standard UK wall outlet is a generous 4+ metres.Having grown up with manual exchange telephones of the 50’s, (pick up the phone and wait for the operator – “Number please”), and later GPO dialling telephones, I am not in the slightest way inconvenienced by having to dial the numbers. In fact, to use these telephones offers a therapeutic exercise in simplicity in today’s fast-paced, information-overloaded and stressed-out world. Add the esoteric satisfaction that the Art Deco design imparts, and there is a style that is way out of reach for modern DECT phones. Time will tell as to reliability.Update: I have had this phone for 4 years and it still works OK. However, I have sidelined it for a genuine ex GPO refurbished type 746 telephone of 1978 vintage, which is of far superior build – British engineering in its heyday. I have found that the base of the Opis FunkyFon is so light that it is necessary to hold it down whilst dialling. It has pulled off the desk and dropped onto the floor if I do not stay close to it. The vintage ex GPO 746 weighs three times as much and the dialling mechanism is much smoother – just like the old days. It also incorporates the original bell ring. I keep the FunkFon for tone dialling when needed, because the 746 phone uses pulse dialling, however, pulse dialling is still supported by most current telephone exchanges. Having said this, the FunkyFon is still better than many retro examples available.
