To maintain its leadership position in the videoconferencing hardware space, Yealink is a certified hardware partner of the world’s leading videoconferencing software providers: Zoom and Microsoft Teams, which together account for 88% of the videoconferencing software market, according to Statista and Demandsage.
We have covered Yealink’s Microsoft Teams-certified phones in previous articles. In this article, we examine Yealink’s impressive Zoom phone portfolio, highlighting the most noteworthy characteristics of these innovative devices.
Yealink’s partnership with Zoom
In 2015, Yealink became a Zoom hardware partner, which started the company on a path to developing innovative Zoom-certified communication devices that integrate with the platform. Over the years, Yealink has expanded its portfolio to include a range of desk phones and cordless DECT phones tailored to meet the needs of modern businesses, in addition to their Zoom Rooms solutions and Zoom-compatible headsets. With a focus on high-quality audio, user-friendly interfaces, and a wide variety of connectivity options, Yealink continues to set new standards for professional communication.
The “Zoom-certified” designation means that Yealink’s equipment has gone through a rigorous testing and validation process by Zoom to ensure full compatibility between the endpoints and the software, including in the areas of performance, security, and reliability.
A Yealink Zoom-certified phone will allow you to log in with your Zoom account, make and receive Zoom phone calls, join a Zoom meeting with a tap, and use native Zoom features.
Zoom-certified phone models
Yealink’s lineup of Zoom-certified phones includes models from several product lines. Note: Market availability of specific models can be subject to change. For the latest updates, check with your TeleDynamics rep.
MP series Android 13 phones
While the MP phones are most known for their native Microsoft Teams integration, several models are also Zoom-certified and can be provisioned with Zoom firmware. These endpoints run on Android 13 OS.
The MP56 features a 7-inch touchscreen as well as built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It is designed for knowledge workers and mid-level professionals who spend a significant portion of their day on calls and need a reliable, high-quality device that integrates seamlessly with Zoom.
VP59G video phone
The VP59G incorporates all the capabilities of a high-tech IP phone, with an HD camera and a fully functional Zoom application. Its 8-inch touch screen, high-quality HD audio, and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities make it one of the most versatile dedicated Zoom-certified video phones on the market.
Zoom-certified T5-series phones
Yealink T5-series phones are designed for high-performance executives that spend long hours on calls. They all feature adjustable high-resolution displays for superior visibility and comfort. The T57W and T58W models also feature capacitive touchscreens.

Zoom-certified DECT solutions
Yealink’s DECT cordless phones provide flexibility for users who need mobility while connecting to Zoom. The W80 and W90 DECT IP multi-cell systems combine a base station with a DECT Manager for scalable and reliable wireless coverage. Both systems are compatible with Yealink's W53H, W56H, CP930W and DD phones, with seamless roaming and handover of calls. The W90 is also compatible with the W59R ruggedized DECT handset handset with an IP67 protection rating.
Zoom phone HaaS
These devices are available as part of Yealink’s Zoom phone hardware as a service (HaaS) framework. This service is designed to allow an organization to quickly get its communications systems up and running with virtually no upfront cost. It is a subscription service that allows you to build and expand your communications with the addition of Zoom-certified phones as needed. The HaaS framework does not include Zoom phone licenses, which must be purchased separately. However, it includes easy upgrades with immediate access to the latest hardware and easy scaling since all hardware and software subscriptions are included on a single invoice from Zoom.
Zoom-certified phone use cases
Incorporating Zoom-certified phones into an organization’s communications infrastructure is important for creating an integrated communications ecosystem. This means that your IP phones and all of your other Zoom-certified devices—including meeting bars, collaboration systems, and Zoom Rooms systems—are incorporated into the system. It also means you can easily communicate with your colleagues and partners using the Zoom app on their mobile devices, laptops, or PCs.
Yealink’s options for Zoom-certified phones offer more than enough variety in features to cover virtually all user requirements within an organization. These include team collaboration rooms, warehouses, common areas, front desks, open spaces, and executive, administrative, and managerial roles.
Conclusion
Yealink offers one of the most comprehensive Zoom-certified phone portfolios in the industry, with options ranging from entry-level desk phones to high-end smart devices running Android 13. Yealink’s seamless integration with Zoom ensures reliable performance, intuitive functionality, and a streamlined user experience across all models.
