Top 10 - Best Corded Telephones of 2023
Looking for the best corded phone? Discover our top 10 recommendations of the year.
Last updated by Craig McInally 10 days ago
With almost 20 years' experience selling corded phones, we know how to separate the best from the worst.
What was once the main way of keeping in touch with friends and family, or conducting business – the humble corded telephone has been somewhat overshadowed in recent years by digital cordless phones and smartphones. However, for many this practical device is still as useful as ever- and we have put together this buying guide to help you find the right corded phone.
There are a number of things to consider when looking for a new corded phone. Some models are aimed simply at those who want to make and receive calls, but many have specialised features that make them ideally suited for particular types of users. For instance, many corded office phones include VoIP compatibility, as well as more advanced features such as multiple answering machines. Then there are big button corded phones, which are designed for elderly users who make have poor eyesight and dexterity. Some corded phones can even pair up with cordless handsets, to give you the best of both worlds.
With so much choice, it can be difficult to determine exactly which model is right for you. To help make things a little easier, our team of experts have put together the following list of the ten best models on the market today. So, read on to discover our top picks!
What we look for in a corded phone:
-
Sound Quality
Every phone on our Top 10 has undergone extensive checks for excellent call quality.
-
Usability
We have a panel of experts and focus groups who test every phone to find out how easy they are to use.
