Batman & Robin On The Bat Phone

Here at Specialty Answering Service, phones are our livelihood. We believe having a live receptionist answering your calls does more than elevate a business – it becomes inseparable from great customer service. This idea carries over to film and television where iconic phones become part of the story. Whether it’s Batman’s Batphone or Derek Zoolander’s oh-so-tiny cell phone, it’s hard to imagine these movies and TV shows without their iconic telephones. Below, we look at the 17 best phones in TV and cinematic history. Enjoy!
