Cisco CP-8851, the one with the color screen and everything! Oh, and the Plantronics ear/mic headset thing, complete with the handset lifter thing.

Real talk though, I feel like an idiot fumbling around with my desk phone. I have no idea how to use the features of it, like transferring a call, 3 party calls, etc. I can hardly manage to check my voicemail that requires a 6 digit passcode and god forbid if I have to check my desk phone voicemail when I'm out of the office. Many a time where it took me a week to get back to someone because I was travelling and couldn't figure that shit out. Apple/Samsung/etc needs to hop on the office phone gig and take out Cisco.

 
Funniest

I used one at my internship last summer that had video chat on it. It made for awkward video chats before we figured out how to disable it on normal calls.

I also used to call the back office in India with the video chat on. For some reason the Indians fucking loved video chatting. We always had good convos. I got my research and expenses done faster than anyone else on the team.
