This is a fully functional portable rotary phone from Telit for €280. The phone weighs less than 2 kg and it comes fully assembled and tested. All you have to do is open the phone, insert your SIM card, and turn the unit on! The unit will utilize your phone number and account minutes. It dials out like normal through the rotary. Incoming calls ring the original, loud, gong style metal bells but like all mobile phones, the portable rotary phone has no dial tone.

The Teli GM862 cellular module works within any country that has one of the 900MHz/1800MHz/1900MHz cellular bands (90% of the world, including Ireland).

The battery can run the phone for 4-5 days and is charged by unscrewing two screws on the bottom of the phone, opening it, and attaching the charger.
