• Bluetooth and Wifi are not native to these phones. Cisco has some other models with those options.
• The extra buttons on a 7861 need handwritten labels beside them.
• The physical function keys use icons not words (e.g. hold key is a pause symbol), which means no need to change for different languages but some users might not interpret the pictures correctly.
