I bought a telephone device to replace old one.
Oh I mean it about wire-line phone not cellphone.

I thought twice, the old phone was bit big and had wire lines then I couldn't make a call with going around.

New one was just compact and of cource wireless, I also noticed shorten dial, which can call by less pushing instead pushing much number, disappeared.

Recent telephone can hold much number than the old.

Then It gets really short with shorten dial in the way.

  • The old phone was a bit big and had lots of wires so I couldn't make a call whilst moving around.

  • The new one was just compact and of course wireless. I also noticed a shorter dial, which means I can call with less button pushing instead pushing much number, disappeared.

  • Newer telephones can hold many more numbers than the older ones.

 
Its much more natural to call it a phone instead of a telephone or a 'telephone device' these days.

I am not to sure what you were talking about when you were mentioning the "shorten dial" I do not know what that is

"With going around" since you are talking about using the phone AND ALSO doing something at the same time we say "whilst"
'With' is used for physical objects being together, (She is with him) and 'whilst' or even "while" Is used when two events are happening at the same time (She is dancing whilst/while he is drinking)

Also I changed 'going' to 'moving' because going means looking for a destination... but when you are walking whilst on the phone you aren't trying to get somewhere you are just moving around.

Thank you for your corrections and very useful comments.

I'll remember the usage of "with", "while" and "phone."
I think I must study them more.

Sorry, Google says that 'speed[simplified,shortened] dialing' was correct.

The old phone can't make so-called address.
Instead, it has the speed dialing.
It holds little 32 number only.

It's old fashioned way.
