We all know landlines won’t be coming back. They can try and make it cool with some fancy stock photos but mobile phones have killed them long time ago.
God damn the fucking garbage hipsters spend money on.
It’s not like the planet is drowning in pointless plastic anyway.
Further, classic copper networks are all almost gone, and will be going away, VOIP is the future, if they really want a land-line. It looks like they’re wired for ethernet, but it’s hard to tell and the most the Urban Outfitters site says is “The GPO 746 Rotary Telephone prides itself on its traditional and authentic look and feel with built-in modern technology” and “Compatible with modern telephone banking.” It seems to say nothing of specifications for either traditional copper wire or ethernet.

If its real hipsters, wouldn’t they eschew any newly made products and instead seek vintage items out of antique stores? (Because stuff from the 80s and 90s is now antiques). So no net new plastic.
Honestly I wouldn’t even mind an old school looking radio with Bluetooth especially if they used the big center for a battery or something. But push buttons are antithesis to a rotary phone
They’re going to popularize handsets that look and function like old bell deskphones. Slide your cell phone inside the charger, and you can press buttons and use the handset via bluetooth.

Fucking hell, 40 for a plastic phone.
Definitely not targeting some silly ticktock users.
Here’s one from Best Buy
That’s Ooma, an ip phone service. You can do it for free with Google voice.
With retro princess phone bundle 😂
Push button rotary 🤢
That’s like the “vintage” radios with fake plastic woodgrain and bluetooth/CD player built in.

That’s existed since ~2005, at least for the handset part.
My country where most people still have them.
Do ISPs “offer” them on a non-optional basis?
