You want to buy a phone that will stand the test of time? Get a land line.

Even those are getting rarer. Heck, when I signed up for internet with mediacom, they were so desperate to sell landlines that they gave me a discount on my internet just to have a landline set up in my house, even if it is literally never used.

It is in the UK, yeah. My phone appears to still use GSM/2G for voice, and better systems for data.
We lost analogue a while ago, though.

House doesn't seem complete without a land line.
Maybe I'm old.
If I went back to rotary though I'd have to find an in-line caller ID for it, that's too useful not to have.

I can't even get a landline where I am.. you can use a regular phone, and the old landline wires in your house, but they all connect into a cable box now and it's basically just an internet phone, rather than going to the phone company.
In a way I kinda wish it wasn't like that, even if it's old tech, I remember the good ole days where your power could go out, but your phone would still work. But then I guess that doesn't matter so much if you have a cellphone handy.
