Phoning without a landline, with a rotary dial: questions and answers
Can I phone at home without a landline and still have a proper telephone?
Yes. A desk mobile phone contains mobile technology but looks and works like a desk telephone. Instead of the line cable there is a SIM card in the device – no fees or technician visits for a landline connection.
Do I need the landline for internet access?
Not necessarily. Depending on where you live and what you need, internet can also be used over the mobile network, for example with a mobile router. Whether that is the better solution depends on your location and data use – it is best to compare current offers from providers.
How similar is it to use compared with a classic landline phone?
Very similar: lift the handset, turn the dial, talk – even without the area code if you set it up that way. The Opis 60s mobile works like a 1960s landline phone, just with a SIM card instead of a plug. More on the product page.
