I bought this phone for its design, but also for mechanical ringing and dial. Now the bell is electronic: a kind of acute bidibip. I was expecting a "ring ring"! But more serious, dial proves to be an adventure! This works once 5. Sometimes there is no dial tone after dialing, sometimes it makes a wrong number or sometimes it is busy! By cons, great receives calls and the sound is perfect in the handset. In short, I sent this.
