Landline Use Persists in Germany as of September 2025, Survey Shows
Bremerhaven, germany – september 2025 – Despite the proliferation of smartphones and 5G technology, a recent Verivox survey indicates that traditional fixed-line telephony remains surprisingly relevant in many German households. This finding prompted a reader poll on stadt-bremerhaven.de asking: Do you still use a landline telephone?
While technically most connections are now IP-based, the term “landline” continues to be used colloquially to refer to a physical telephone connected to a fixed connection. The stadt-bremerhaven.de poll specifically focuses on the use of the telephone device itself,separate from whether a household maintains a fixed line for internet access. The question centers on whether individuals are still making calls via a traditional landline phone, or relying solely on mobile phones and messaging services.
The author of the article notes personally owning an older gigaset phone, primarily used by their parents who still rely on the connection. While personal calls are made via smartphone, the survey aims to gauge the broader usage patterns among the site’s tech-savvy readership.The results of the stadt-bremerhaven.de poll are currently loading and will be published shortly.
