My wife can't handle modern technology so an ordinary mobile was out of the question. We used to have a good BT landline phone but we 'lost' our landline when we had full fibre fitted to the property. This phone was the nearest I could find to the old landline style and suits her quite well. It works well and uses 4G phone connections which is also needed as some other 'senior's mobiles' don't have 4G access and have to revert to 2G which is very poor quality. All-in-all a good mobile phone, especially for the price.
Bought for my elderly father in law, he was right at home using it, very easy to set up, use and most importantly to see, for reference he is using it with 1pMobile PAYG and it works absolutely fine. I've deducted 1 star for the lanyard being a nightmare to attach (which is a feature he likes, but would never have been able to attach himself) other than that top marks.
Used by mother in law. Big buttons only good feature. Have had numerous problems including not charging sometimes, poor display, problems with volume. For cheap phone with big buttons ok. Would I buy again? No.
Phone is used for 90+ year old who needed a phone that worked like his old-line cordless phone. This does the trick nicely. It works well with his standard hearing aid but also has good volume for the times he forgets his hearing aid. Easy to set up and maintain.
Advertised for elderly persons with large buttons and simple to use, it took nearly 3hours just to get the back off it was so tight that an elderly person would have no chance. The main dialing buttons as described were good but the centre up and down control button to access Directory, Tools, speed dialing and other controls was far too small for elderly fingers as other buttons were pressed by mistake.For speed dealing you had to access this control button to go into directory and scroll through the entered named person etc; we found this far too complicated for the elderly.As we required this phone for simple use as a phone without , camera, radio etc; It needs a simple arrangement to set up the call directory in advance with numbers attatched to the person to call a weitten list (as you would with your own directory )is then organised with names and numbers and then just simply press the relevant single number to dial out thus making so easy. The phone has been returned and awaiting refund.
Excellent phone for a beginner or an older person who has never used a mobile. Easy to use and navigate. Really clear to read buttons with voice confirmation when you press a number button. 4G so excellent call quality. Would definitely recommend
I bought this as a simple replacement for traditional landline phone. Build Quality: no issues Easy of Use: it is called EasyFone and that is exactly what it is, very good. Durability: only had it a few days but battery life is good and the button feel is solid. The only reason I gave 4 starts rather than 5 is that when it is standing in the desktop holder it is slightly wonky because of its light weight and the spring action of the base charging connectors.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this item
Questo telefonino l’ho comprato per mia mamma che ha 101 anni!! L’ho preso da poco per cui non so la durata della batteria, la carica però dura parecchio tempo. La tastiera ha numeri grandi e ben visibili ed è molto facile da usare leggero e maneggevole, inoltre si possono mettere in memoria i numeri telefonici più importanti quindi, schiacciando il tasto associato al numero, parte la telefonata! Viene venduto con una fettuccia lunga per poterlo mettere al collo, questo è comodo per chi vive da solo perché ha il tasto 🆘. Ottimo acquisto arrivato il giorno dopo l’ordine effettuato! Come sempre grazie al venditore e grazie Amazon.
Téléphone utilisé pour le télétravail en complément d'un smartphone. Léger, simple (2G), bon son en conversation, prise jack, capte bien le réseau. 2 sonneries mais ça suffit. La batterie tient la journée pour l'instant (petite utilisation). Rapport qualité prix imbattable.
Lo mejor del teléfono es que es fácil de usar, tiene unos números del teclado grandes, al igual que los iconos de la pantalla. Tiene un volumen alto, tanto el del auricular, como el del tono de llamada. A favor también que es muy ligero, y como única pega la duración de la batería que dura un par de días (usándolo habitualmente), mientras que en el teléfono anterior que era similar a este duraba 5 días.
