Digital camera reviews of AT&T 210 Corded Phone, Black, 1 Handset
Digital camera Review: A simple and reliable telephone
Summary: 5 Stars
The troubles with cell phones not working after the terrorist attacks in 2001 and the power blackout in 2003 made clear the advantage of a corded land-line telephone in emergencies. There have also been repeated problems with expensive combination telephone/answering machines where one stops working so the whole thing has to be replaced. The frequent and annoying static on various cordless telephones was the last straw so I ordered this telephone over four years ago and have really enjoyed using it.
The backlit dial pad is nice and the easy access to controls for ring and handset volume is great. I don't use the memory dial or emergency buttons but they could be useful if someone has trouble dialing numbers or uses a calling card for long distance. You don't need any instructions to use the basic features, just plug it in, lift off the base and dial, which is a nice change from fancy electronics that take an hour to set up. The handset itself is well-balanced and feels substantial in the hand without being too heavy. The buttons have the right amount of "give".
Overall, this is a nice little telephone, simple and reliable.
A great accessory is this little thing-a-ma-jig that keeps the cord from getting tangled: AT&T 91078 Cord Detangler - 3 Pack (Clear)
Digital camera Review: AT&T 210 Trimline corded phone
Summary: 5 Stars
I was thrilled to find this phone. I have two AT&T 210 Trimline corded phones which were bought back in the 1980's and they still work fine. My new phone that I just purchased is exactly the same; same sound quality, the only difference I noticed is it is a bit lighter in weight. But that is not a problem. I am very happy with my purchase. I wish it came in more colors like red, or green. The only colors offered were black or white. This phone has the versatility of either being a desk phone or a wall phone. That's nice too. It was a good price too of $10 for the phone and shipping. I give it five stars.Digital camera Review: AT&T 201 Phone

This phone is absolutely fabulous. The sound is very clear. It was very easy to program my numbers into the phone. It's black color would coordinate with anyone's desk or counter.Digital camera Review: AT&T 210

Phone seemed nice but I bought it to hang on a wall and it wouldn't due to manufacturing.Digital camera Review: AT&T 210 Trimline Corded Telephone

Delivery was great but...the phone is not. The receiver will not stay on the wall base and when dialing the numbers do not always work.
