0x260F

0x260F refers to the Unicode code point U+260F, which is named WHITE TELEPHONE. It is part of the Miscellaneous Symbols block and is classified as a symbol of the type Other (So). The character is a legacy dingbat used to represent a telephone in text and signage. Its visual rendering varies by font and platform; some typefaces display a pale or outline telephone icon, while others may render it more abstractly.

In Unicode, 0x260F is not the same as the telephone receiver emoji, which resides at U+1F4DE (TELEPHONE RECEIVER) and is widely used in emoji sets. As a result, U+260F is typically treated as a symbol rather than an emoji in many contexts, though certain fonts or platforms may render it with emoji-like styling. Because of its optional and platform-dependent presentation, users should consider compatibility when using 0x260F in user interfaces or cross-platform text.

Encoding notes include its hexadecimal form (U+260F) and the corresponding HTML numeric references: ☏ or ☇. The character reflects early telecommunication symbolism that persists in digital typography, often appearing in documentation, diagrams, or interfaces that seek a simple telephony indicator without relying on modern emoji sets.
