he GXP1628 is a smallish lightweight phone. The plastic frame is hollow, but the construction of the phone feels solid and durable. The buttons have a nice density and remain satisfactory to the touch. A removable phone stand fits into two slots on the back of the phone, and the stand can also be used as a wall mount.
The handset is not very heavy, but it does feel somewhat awkward holding it on the shoulder for extended periods of time. If you’re going to use this phone a lot, it would probably be a good idea to buy a headset (RJ9). The locking mechanism that keeps the handset in place was difficult to get out. We had to force the spring out using a screwdriver, but after that, there were no issues with this feature.
The display is somewhat tiny for a phone of this build. But with backlight capabilities and reasonable length, the display is the right size for the LED text. It serves the bare bones UI well, and it actually contributes to an appealing lo-fi aura that emanates pure business rather than elaborate bells and whistles.
