This is NOT that suitable for older people
There's already several phones out there that are better. Just search on Amazon
What most older generation people need are:
1. A VERY loud ringtone that is lower frequency than most of the normal stock ringtones
2. A VERY loud speakerphone mode that is easy to engage
3. Large buttons, with the answer button easy to find
4. Easy to set up speed dial for single press calling
5. As larger screen as can be reconciled with point 3
6. A large, clear font, together with an appropriate UI to make selecting contacts as easy as possible
7. A long battery life, together with easy charging, like a cradle
8. Anything that is not directly associated with making and receiving calls not cluttering the UI
9. An emergency call button easy to find when wanted, but not so easy that it can be pressed by accident.
And this should all be in a package that is easy to hold for people with grip issues, and robust enough to survive being dropped.
This Nokia phone does not meet many of these criteria.
This is not an advert, but I bought a Chinese phone badged Ushining from Amazon for my dad recently, as it ticks nearly all of the points I outlined. There are several other phones from Doro, Artfone and Easyfone, amongst others.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
