Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The AT&T 146 DesignLine telephone is a sleek update on an old, favorite style, now with a slim and curvy design. The 146 dispenses with excess and provides the most important features of a basic phone, including speed dial, last-number redial, ringer volume, and more.

The 10-number speed dial is programmable to hold your most important and frequently dialed numbers. You can set the ringer volume to your preference, low for late at night, higher when you're running the vacuum. Use the flash button to get an instant dial tone. The redial keeps trying the last number dialed, ideal for busy signals. A mute button permits a private conversation that your caller can't hear.

The 146 is hearing-aid compatible and suitable for desktop or convertible to a wall unit. This model is presented in windchill white to color-coordinate with your decor.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rare, innovative design, weird handset, February 6, 2004

I bought this phone free after rebate and it's one of those rare tiny phones with the keypad in the base. This makes it an ideal wall phone. I can't say it's useful as a desk phone as the base slides around despite it's heavy weight. The keypad in the base is a good plus for a phone this inexpensive--usually you need to get a much more expensive speaker phone just for buttons in the base. If you spend a lot of time with voice-response systems, as many of us do with voice mail and such, this telephone is the most convenient way to do it for the least money.

The handset is weird. The microphone is entirely too skinny and if you're a shoulder-holder you probably won't like the phone. The handset cord is long enough but it's the cheap dull-finished kind that gets dirty easily. Get a nice AT&T Tuff Cord to replace it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Its so cool!, August 11, 2002

I was actually looking for the Sony corded phone(IT-B3) at the store when I came across this phone.

My gosh what can I say.. I love it! For its price there is literally nothing cooler than this. Compared to the otherATT DesignLine phones, this is the most stylish. I can't believe I got a work of art for this price ;)

The unit feels solid, sleek and the handset is light the the sound comes over crisp and clear. Since I just got this unit, I can't say how reliable it is, but it looks tough.

I'm a happy camper.

3.0 out of 5 stars Was OK for about 9mths, January 27, 2006

This phone HAD good sound quality even with my DSL(yes filters were on)...Just a barely audible little hiss on the line unless you turn up (well "slide up")the phone's volume too high). There is a thingie you slide to control the volume...no button. I guess for the price I should not expect anything GREAT. Well after around 9mths or so I am getting such a BAD crackling noise on the line (even when my I'm not using my PC and the DSL is not on)that I can no longer use this phone. What is sad I paid almost $15 for it @an office supplies store yet I am seeing it on various sites including this one for between $5-10 now. Oh well... LOL.
