Bontel t1000 Wireless Landline Desktop Phone

Bontel T1000 is a fixed wireless GSM desktop phone that mimics the look and feel of a traditional landline but operates via mobile SIM cards, making it ideal for areas with poor fixed-line infrastructure in Kenya. Released around 2022–2023, it supports dual SIMs for seamless switching between networks like Safaricom or Airtel, offering a budget-friendly alternative to wired phones without needing a ground wire or complex setup. With a robust 3000mAh battery, it provides up to 5 days of standby and reliable call quality via GSM 900/1800 MHz (some variants extend to 800/1900 MHz). Available in black, it’s compact for desk or wall mounting, targeting homes, small offices, or rural setups where stable communication is key. It combines basic mobile features like SMS and caller ID with landline simplicity.
