A mobile phone designed for seniors.
This big button mobile is an ideal phone for people with sight problems. And also in the UK and Europe these phones come with Vodafone or O2 sim card as well.
One phone for the elderly that I really like is the Just5 phone. You can find their array of cute and simple phones for your grandma or grandpa at http://www.Just5.com
Their phones have these large buttons that are really visible to the elderly even for those who can no longer decipher texts. The screen display numbers in a clear manner as well.
The phone has great features that could benefit the elderly. It has a loud ringing sound that could call the attention of seniors. They could easily hang the phone around their neck so that they don’t misplace it. And, it has an emergency “SOS” button at the back which makes it very convenient for seniors to seek help.
This is truly a great phone for seniors!
