Excellent for the older generation

A couple of issues with the SIM card at first but the provider sent a new one out. Elderly parent is struggling to use as yet even though the keys are the same. She had a flip phone before. Looks good and appears to be value for . Issues with charging initially. I’m sure they will eventually get on with it, should have bought the same as previous buy it didn’t support 4g. Any major issues I will update the review

Great phone for my husband who doesn’t do technology, he can dial out & answer a call which is all he needs to do, although it does much more.

Bought this phone having read too many reviews of all simple phones for the elderly. I needed this for my 87 year old father and it did exactly what I wanted it to. The numbers are big and easy to press and the voice repeats aloud the number you press. The charging dock is incredibly helpful, no fiddly cables to plug in. The ring tone is loud. I really do not understand any negative comments. You get a good product for the price you pay. Signal and coverage so far have been great. My father lives in the middle of the countryside where signal quality is terrible, my SMART phone always loses coverage but I have been able to phone him with absolutely no trouble or signal drop out whatsoever. A great phone for anyone who needs help with mobile technology and just wants a basic, big button, easy to use, loud phone.

Battery only lasting around 24 hours in standby so clearly not of any use. Don't know if this is normal but the one supplied only last around 24 hrs so has had to be returned. Reluctant to order another in case they are all may be the same? Cannot suggest you purchase the phone on my own experience.

A great idea, but this phone only works on 2G, so unfortunately no good for my use.

I came across this phone while researching a phone with a loud ring, and with a loud “speaker“ for people who are hard of hearing. I liked that, while it is a mobile phone, it sits in a cradle, which makes it look like a landline phone and gives it a place to live so it won’t get lost. Setting it up was very easy, the instructions were clear, and it was quite intuitive. The operating system is a little bit like an old school Nokia phone, so “channelling” my brain from the late 90s, I managed to set up some numbers on speed dial, change the ringtone and the time without reading the instructions! This made the process really easy. For those not at all tech-savvy I think you’d manage the set up ok following the instructions. I would really recommend this phone for people who need a phone that is loud, either because they have hearing issues or because they are placing this phone in a noisy environment. I would also recommend this phone for people who need a mobile phone but don’t need a smart phone. I am using a Giffgaff Sim in it, and that comes in a variety of sizes so allowed me to choose a size that would fit in their phone properly. Interestingly, this is also a dual Sim phone so you could set it up with more than one Sim to make sure that you had coverage wherever you were. I’m really pleased with this, and I would recommend it.

Take care when reading reviews as there are reviews for the C1 and C1+ mixed in with reviews for the A400 4G. I got this artfone A400 4G Big Button Mobile Phone for my sister who has macular degeneration and she appreciated the big buttons and also what the description fails to mention, a great feature in that this phone has "Talking Numbers" i.e. a clear voice announces the numbers as they are pressed. (this is in addition to the side button which will announce the time) This is excellent for people with poor eyesight. I feel, as others have commented, that the fonts could be larger. It was fairly simple to set up. The charging cradle is quite light so I fixed it to the table with double sided sticky pads to keep it from moving . I would think that with the cost of BT calls and the digital switch over from copper lines in Jan. 2027, many older folk will use mobiles like this as their landline, keeping it permanently at home so it would be handy if these pads were included. One gripe, the charging cable is on the short side.

The description provided is misleading and inaccurate. This phone will only work with T-Mobile or its affiliates such as Metro Mobile. It is not compatible with ATT, Verizon, or Mint Mobile. The phone is OK and is appropriate for the elderly.

Attention c'est du 2g Mais pour le prix il n'y a pas mieux Rend service pour personne agee

Un teléfono muy pero que muy fácil de utilizar y que para personas mayores es la mejor opción. Teclas grandes y al pulsarlas reproduce un sonido describiendo que tecla se ha pulsado. Recomiendo su compra! Es ideal para personas mayores que no se adapten fácilmente a teléfonos inteligentes. Tiene un botón de SOS que se puede configurar de varias maneras (alarma, envío de SMS, llamadas...). Radio FM incorporada que no necesita conectar auriculares para funcionar. Gracias!

J'ai acheté ce téléphone pour ma grand mère qui vit seule. Elle n'est pas du tout connectée au smartphone. Trop compliqué pour elle. Ce téléphone est simple et intuitif. Les touches sont grosses et larges pour faciliter le visuel. Possibilité d'enregistrer des numéros dans les favoris, c'est bien pratique et plus simple car plus besoin d'aller chercher dans le répertoire. Le mode SOS est très sécurisant pour elle et pour nous. Nous l'avons testé et nous en sommes satisfait. Ce téléphone répond vraiment aux besoins de ma grand mère mais également de mon fils de 10 ans qui a de suite compris comment l'utiliser 😉 Le socle est pratique également pour poser le téléphone. Ainsi il ne se perd pas et on sait où il se trouve. Donc je recommmande vivement ce produit. Bon rapport qualité/prix et design sympa, ni trop gros ni trop petit.

Ich habe dieses Handy für meine Tante gekauft und sie ist sehr zufrieden damit. Einfache Handhabung, auch die Funktion mit der SOS-Taste ist sehr gelungen. Bei dem Preis gibt es nichts zu beanstanden.
