Great phone...
If you are looking for a basic phone this is the one…
Exactly what we needed
Bought for my mom as she couldn’t manage the smartphone. She is absolutely delighted with this phone. Big buttons and easy to use. Definitely worth the money.
A good, basic mobile for seniors/disabled.
This mobile chews up the battery. The phone is nice and slim and so is the battery. It will not bulge much if carried in a front pocket. Turn the back-light on low and the screen off function to 5 or 10 seconds and you will conserve battery. This phone is not chunky like the candy bar phones of 10+ years ago. Both the phone and the internal battery are slim, so the battery will hold less of a charge.
Ideal for the elderly & easy to use
My wife doesn’t like smartphones so this mobile is perfect for her and she enjoys using it.
Uncomplicated phone
Phone was purchased for my husband who wanted a more basic phone. This has proved a good purchase. Larger buttons, clear screen and easy to negotiate. Also has a good camera taking clear pictures.
Perfect phone if you need a simple phone
Keypad is very easy to use, not complicated at all for the elderly, only downside is you don’t get a users manual with it, which can be difficult for elderly people to understand all its uses.
Good quality product.
Excellent product, good for people with difficult hearing. Easy to use. Would recommend.
Audio as numbers are pressed
The Doro 5960 has been a valuable update to previous basic options. I bought this for an elder and they are managing the display and key features adequately.
Great budget phone for elderly
Perfect for my 81yo father who is not very tech savvy
The phone works as advertised and is usable by my 84 year old mum who struggles with most things. The phone is larger than you might assume from the pictures and has nice clicky buttons – both of which make it easier for her to use.
New doro phone which is very easy to use good for elderly people like me
Good sound soft buttons and really all the older person requires if only it had maybe face book and what’s app
It would be the ideal phone but all in all almost there
