From 1930s to around 1970s, the regular black home dial phone did not change much. Incredible how long that design lasted. Imagine a design lasting 40 years today.
I know, I was stunned because when I saw that black dial phone from the 30s I thought that's what my grandparents had in their house when I was growing up 40 years later. I guess they always liked the style. Of course, they hadn't had phones in their homes till they married and then after the war got one with a party line.
PC Case.
Most still use the tower design.
Of course the look was "invented" in the late 1980s.
@@brotnjanin that's another good analogy. The PC tower design hasn't changed much fundamentally in around 30 years. The first pc cases from the 70s and early 80s were more like monitor stands.
The design lasted for 40 years because Bell Telephone was a monopoly. It wasn't until Bell was broken up by Congress in the 1980s that phones became more diverse in design.
Most smart phones look the same for 15 years. Not much innovation.

I'm only 41, but we were using 1940's phones right up until the early 90s in our house. Endless hours trying to phone the doctor on a rotary phone...wow!, it really was old fashioned looking back now
@Rumpel Felt Do you not intend to get there?
Well, back then it was easier to just phone the doctor rather than taking more endless hours to reach doctor's clinic to talk to him.
You should of known at the time was really old fashioned, Come on now lol
LOL THAT YEAR WHEN MY GRANDMA WAS BORN
@@mikekaraoke we were too poor to afford the touch type phones. anyway, it worked perfectly well
Actually the first telephone invented was a tin can with a string connected each other on both ends.

My grandparents still had the 1884 phone in their house. I remember it in the 1970's, but I think it had been turned into some sort of intercom to call people upstairs. I remember playing around with it when I was a kid.
4:52 we still use these 😂
I use it and it work

Yes
The last phone looks like kitchen scales

@@SRMC957 Hey one of my Grandma 👵 has a an old phone, Type Writer, 1960-2001 Gadgets, Computers and Radios. East Indian Company flag, British India Flangers and East Pakistan flag. Also has old coins, Money from the past and different countries. She has some kind of Music player to listen. An animal head in a wall, Old Teddy bears 🧸, Old Stairway with Glass in it and an indoor swimming pool when you enter the house.
I remember my grandparents had the old wind up telephone from early 1900s it was so cool.
are we gonna just ignore the fact that he didn’t include the cup and string phone
the 1878 is kinda a cup string phone, but acoustic phones date as far back as the 1600s
With machine
for me none of these count unless its wireless
@@mickycontreras1163 so you've just ignored the grand majority of phone history. Great job

1800s : If we didn't invented that! You won't able to evolve that!!!!
ok

Our church had that spin dial phone in the 1990's and my sister had this super cool clear cord phone. It's amazing how slow the change in technology was, way more comfortable
Thank you so much! 😃
I am doing a project and this REALLY helped me out.
Loved the old phones better than even the brand newer versions !!!!
2:33 if you want to see the ancestors of something from your childhood
3:51 now that is what you call a telephone, the 1949 black rotary phone. It had the best feel to it, the coolest sounds and with a long black chord it was perfect. They seem to also be popular in the late 80’s early 90’s.
I still have one in my basement
1:17 coffin phone
Lol 😂😂😂😂
Lol
Who knew traditional telephones were still being upgraded or even used in 2019..
Cellphones are way too costly here in Canada as of 2019! On our landline I can call anywhere in North America for the same flat rate and get calling overseas to Scotland for only 3 cents a minute. We also get it bundled with the Internet making it a better option.

@8:09 That Star Trek Phone is just Amazing :D
I want it
I had one of those call identifier gadgets.
As a design engineer I've worked in the telco industry designing NEBS compliant Central Office (CO) equipment. In 2020 I was at my parent house and was sleeping in a spare room where they had an old rotary phone from the 60's on a table. Out of curiosity I plugged the RJ45 jack into the wall and dialed (literally LOL) and called my cellphone. To my amazement IT WORKED! That is an old analog dialing system which sends off a set number of clicks with each turn of the dial which gets decoded at the CO and routed to the proper destination. Everything now is digital, but the phone companies are very big on compatibility and reliability and are loath to make drastic changes in the system. The old clicking analog router equipment would have been replaced decades ago but it appears someone decided to design the system to recognize the old routing signal from a rotary phone. I thought that was so cool using that to call a cellphone. I don't know how much longer that will work, perhaps it was limited to the carrier they were using. It brought back a lot of memories and its lot likely I will ever have that opportunity again.
Thanks for your great efforts for collecting the details.🙏❤️👋👋👋
10:10 they literally signal handedly predicted social distancing.
Great job!
these videos are very interesting continue on with the great work! I will subscribe soon.
6:36 That Garfield phone gives off a 2005 vibe for some reason.
The change to Touch Tone dialing during my youth was the biggest transformation. It sped up the pace of calling and reduced the likelihood of a wrong number.... And children could play Yankee Doodle on the phone and get somebody 2,000 miles away and make their parents rather perturbed.
The liquid phone looks more like a black cup to me
Thanks a lot for uploading such a nice and informative vedio.
Thanks you soo much!! am working in a project in school about telephones this will fix my life :D
Why didn't I ever invest to this invention in the 20th Century, ugh🙄

Thank you
All 2000's inventions mentioned in this video are completely pointless. I believe 1800's phone were much more practical than those.
When Smartphones started to show up Landline phones were screwed so they just made some crappy designs and no innovations.
I knew the 2002 and 2005 one

4:42 I've seen that phone somewhere before. I think that was the old phone my grandma's hairdresser would let me play with when I was little.
I think my mom had the Garfield phone as a teenager.
Also I remember when I was 6 and my parents finally decided to get cordless phones (around 2004). I was so amazed by the fact that you could get the phone in the living room and take it to the bedroom to talk. When I was about 8, my parents decided to get me one for my room. It was pink and white and even came with letter stickers so I could put my name on it. I thought I was the coolest kid in school.
I have 2 of those types of phones
The music goes pretty well with the subject shown here.
Good job.
I didn’t even know LAN lines where still in service
I love the Garfield phone and the VTech LS6181 !
1:46 ive saw a lot of these phones in some antique shops and i even have one
Love how after the invention of the iPhone, landline phone manufacturers just turned to gimmicks
Landline is ironically now a luxury item, once again.
@NEPA Buses Because most people don't need a landline and if they do, they have to pay high fees, taxes and for the service itself which isn't so cheap anymore.
@@professional.commentator what’s great is that u can buy iPhone stands with a Landline style receiver built in for that retro look and feel
It feels like disaster is about to strike when I see old phones.
The first telephone I owned was a dial in handset I bought at Target on the clearance rack for $2 which I owned for 3 years but sometimes the phone would have static every now and then but it lasted until I gave it to charity. It did not have a back plate so I laid it down flat with a long phone jack connected to it. It was kinda like the one in 1968. 5:30
I had one that would somehow pick up other people's conversations

In 1880, About 49 thousands phones were in use in USA. That number is fucking amazing for the year 1880.

Interesting...
Great information with great music. Any link for music.
While the telephone itself is interesting the electromechanical switching systems that made dialed up connections possible is amazing. Terms like Step by Step, Panel and Crossbar identify technology that was the engineering marvel of the time. Floor after floor of equipment maintained by dozens of technicians to provide tens of thousands of connections through the average Central Office.

0:49 the first phone to include a camera
Can you tell me how the 1892 candlestick phone and ringer worked related to the switchboard system, if possible, for Astoria/Queens, NY around 1898? I am researching for an historical novel I am writing. Also, I assume it would be a party line system. If so, could the operator listen in on a phone conversation? Or were there private lines available? Thanks much.
So after 2002, they just turned into gimicks. Makes sense, cell phones started taking off around that time as well.
I need to get one of those caller id phones because i get calls from people i dont want to know about
7:24 what
Sorry it's a year later, but u plug ur phone into it and the phone number of whose calling u would show up on the little screen.
The first telephone call was made on March 10(my bday), 1876, by Alexander Graham Bell. Bell demonstrated his ability to "talk with electricity" by transmitting a call to his assistant, Thomas Watson. The first words transmitted were "Mr Watson, come here. I want to see you."
