RECOMMENDATIONS Cheap desk phones

[kameleon]

I have a client who has some Obi1022 desk phones. They are starting to give them problems and asked me to find replacements. It has been way too long since I have looked at the phones available so I turn to you great group of individuals. They have very basic needs:

• Must connect to/work with latest PIAF
• parking lot - they don't use individual extension transfers, just parking lot and pick up on other line

That simple. Basically what is the cheapest functional phone you can recommend for this? I see the Polycom 2200-46157-025 looks decent but is there any first hand experience with it? Any similar recommendations in that price range?

I can make the recommendation but their budget is about half of the cheapest one of those unfortunately.

I normally do Clearly IP phones, and if not those, then Grandstream GXP2170, or even cheaper is the GXP2135.

FYI: Incredible PBX phones are branded ClearlyIP phones.

would the yealink T19 do the trick here? Those are pretty low cost.

I have had good use out of many Grandstream phones in the $80-120 range. I am currently using a Grandstream GXP-2170 which is under $100 on Amazon.

I use Fanvil X4 and Grandstream GRP2612 phones. Either of those can be found for about $60-$80 USD if you google around and search IP phone sales outlets. The Fanvil works quite well and the Grandstream GRP series are what they call "enterprise grade."

Also if you can find the older Aastra 9143i sip phones on EBay, they are quite good. I have some in use for over 10 years now.

Aliexpress gets you any number of SIP phones for $30 or less, they don't come with any support though
If your on a tight budget you can get bulk purchases of older Polycoms which are solid and well documented affordably, eg
