BATTERYThis mobile phone for the elderly comes with a UK mains plug and a docking station to charge the device. Thanks to the desktop charging cradle you will always know where your Doro 780X is and that it has charge. The cradle is perfect for anyone with limited hand mobility or those who are partially sighted, as you won’t need to insert the micro USB connector into the port on the side of your mobile phone to charge it anymore. | HD VOICE AND HACThis mobile phone for seniors is Hearing Aid Compatible so you will get loud and clear sound whilst wearing your hearing device and thanks to the HD Voice technology it has never been so easy to hear and to be heard.
| ICE (IN CASE OF EMERGENCY)Add an ICE contact to improve your own safety. First responders can access stored medical information from the user’s phone easily using the ICE function. All fields are optional, but you would be able to provide next of kin details, condition, allergies, blood type, vaccinations, medications and other very important information which might be crucial to know in the event of an accident or trauma. | RESPONSE BY DOROThe Response button features on the back of the Doro 780X and when pressed will simultaneously alert an unlimited number of ‘Responders’ that are set up in the pre-installed app. Responders are alerted on their smartphone (free app to download) that the Doro user requires assistance and are shown their location. Within the Response by Doro app, users are also able to help manage settings such as screen brightness or call volume on the Doro phone. |

SAFETY TIMERThe safety timer function becomes very useful when you are performing a task which may be risky for your safety and which may unable you to call for help. To avoid this, set the safety timer to ON by pressing the key on the side of the phone and follow the instructions. Do the task (i.e. take a shower) and deactivate once complete. If the alarm hasn’t been deactivated within the set time then the assistance sequence will start. You can decide the time period, up to a maximum of 120 minutes. | SPLASHPROOFThis device is resistant to water splashes and is protected from a limited dust ingress. Classification: IP54. | CALL BLOCKINGThe call blocking feature allows you to prevent specific numbers from calling or texting you. This option is very useful especially if you often receive spam calls or messages. You can add numbers to your Blacklist directly from your call log, just press Block number. | GPSAfter downloading and setting up the Response by Doro app, you can instantly see the Doro user’s position. If the Doro 780X is on and connected to the internet (via WiFi or mobile data), it will update the position instantly; if it is not connected, it will show the last known position with the time. Note! Both the Doro 780X user and ‘Responders’ need to set up a Response by Doro account to use this service, with the Doro user granting permission to share their location with their connected Responders. |

Simple and Good for elderly, just the quick dial options, should be 5 people maybe not ; , and no other dial out options even if signed i
Probably needs to be set up by the person not using it!
This item should have been used for a dementia patient, but he managed to turn off the speaker and we can’t rectify this
Not easy setting up the phone but once set up my old folks love it.
Bought this for my mother who has vascular dementia, very easy to use
This phone was bought for an 88 year old relative who is partially sighted. It is so easy for her to use. Simply the best Phone in the circumstances
Great little phone pretty easy to use but it has some quirks but gives the elderly the security of a mobile
Fine once set up but really quite difficult especially for elderly.grandson set it up in the end.
I was looking for a mobile for my 95 year old mum that she could actually use. She is disabled and has failing sight and a normal mobile ended up far too “complicated” for her with her FaceTiming and calling people she didn’t even know by mistake lol! This phone she keeps by her bed and if she needs us she simply pushes two buttons – she loves it! It has therefore given us peace of mind that she can reach us any time (she has a Phone Guardian with lifeline in her living room – excellent too)
Exactly what is needed for our family and a cheap 5 a month SIM for unlimited minutes makes this a perfect buy. Would not be without i
Arrived quickly. Quite complicated to set up fully, but once done , is excellent. Simple and safe.
I’ve just changed my mum’s old Doro 780 for this new one as it is WiFi enabled.
Excellent, easy to use phone, my only criticism is that it sometimes locks and mum can’t find the ‘unlock’ key easily (she is registered blind)
Bought for a elderly person who has difficulty using a normal fone ,they find it easy to use and a b c buttons is good ideal jst one button to press to make a call
This was purchased for an elderly person with mild Dementia. My son set it up and it has been a great success and gives peace of mind to his carers and family.
Really good. Bought it for my mam who is 84. She finds it much easie
