Being used to Nokia button phones, the Doro is much bigger and once found, the resetting of the display is much easier and similar to Nokia, the brightness is a little harsh for my tastes even when down at the lowest point and the keypad self lock is o.k but will not change to allow the use of a personal password code nor will it allow you to switch it off or let you put lock on when it is best for you. Also not a lot of choice for ringtones or message tones and no obvious way to do back up even though it does it, it does need a phone expert to sort it out
However overall it is a good phone, getting easier to use and handle, so would recommend buying for anyone who prefers a phone with buttons and/or does not like/get one with Iphones (even the younger generation are getting fed up with Iphones and I have heard that many are buying buttons phones such as Doro.
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.
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.
My wife doesn’t like smartphones so this mobile is perfect for her and she enjoys using it.
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.
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.
Excellent product, good for people with difficult hearing. Easy to use. Would recommend.
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.

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
