Before I ever saw a Yealink phone I thought they would be super terrible and cheesy, given how weird the name is.
Then I bought a SIP-T22P for $60 to test out and was pleasantly surprised. The http setup interface is quite full featured and the phones are very easy to use with Asterisk/FreePBX. If you don't care about color screens and fancy features like pairing with bluetooth headsets, Yealinks can be found for $55-65 each... My main phone is now a SIP-T28P. My only complaint about them is that they are not as heavy as they should be, and change positions on a desk, which can be fixed by supergluing some steel or lead weights into the hollow parts of the snap-on 45 degree angle desk stand.
