Talking Ben comes from Talking Ben the Dog, a mobile app released by Outfit7 in 2011 as part of the Talking Tom and Friends series. Ben is a brown dog and retired chemistry professor who reacts to pokes, eats, drinks, and takes phone calls from the player. Clips of his calls spread widely on YouTube and social media, where his deadpan responses became a meme format. This tiny pickup cue survived as a standalone edit sound because it cleanly marks the start of one of those calls.

The Talking Ben phone pickup sound from the mobile app, a short click as Ben answers the call. Creators use it for call intros and meme edits.
This is the brief phone pickup sound from Talking Ben, the moment the grumpy dog character lifts the receiver to answer a call. It lasts only a fraction of a second and sounds like a sharp plastic click and connection snap, with no words spoken. Despite its tiny length it instantly signals that Ben is now on the line and listening. Viewers familiar with the app recognise the cue at once, so editors use that recognition to set up a joke, a fake phone conversation, or Ben's famously blunt yes and no answers that usually follow.
