Bakelite phones, made from one of the first synthetic plastics, offer several advantages, including durability and resistance to heat and chemicals, which contribute to their long lifespan. Their solid construction makes them less prone to damage compared to modern plastic phones. Additionally, Bakelite's aesthetic appeal and variety of colors allow for unique designs, making them popular as vintage collectibles. Finally, their heavy weight provides stability on surfaces, reducing the likelihood of accidental tipping.
