Need details about cell phones for senior citizens?


My grandfather is going to be 81 this September. So I am trying to find a phone with larger buttons for him. The phone must be a flip phone; otherwise he will be calling all the family with his rear on accident, or forgetting to hang up. So does anyone out there can suggest me best cell phones for senior citizens that he must be comfortable with it? Help!

The regular phone functions old faithful delivers in style. Basically, the CVLO M61 is great for those who get intimidated by technology thus making it the perfect gift for parents, grandparents, or yourself if you find the modern phones too difficult to handle.

Here take a look at the features:

1. UPDATE: The Jitterbug has been great. My father in law can easily use it and loves it. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending it for anyone. I’ve been doing research on cell phones for the elderly and came upon your post. Since most senior citizens are on fixed incomes, a prepaid phone is a good option and here’s one from the leading prepaid phone company, Trace one.

2. Extra large dial pad buttons and icons

3. Easy to operate flashlight

4. Time info (spoken aloud)

5. Dial buttons (spoken aloud)

6. SOS button
