Reviews

I find it really easy to use. The buttons are large and easy to see and I know to press the green button to call people. My son supported me to choose the right ringtone and they were all really loud which is good for my hearing.

It's easier for texting and quite good for calls. I normally use the speaker phone and it's just like apple phones with a simple button to press. You can transfer all your contacts from your old phone to the Doro phone easily. I used google drive, and then on my iPad and all my contacts and calendar events transferred over.
