The Best Mobile Phone for Seniors, Kids, and the Visually and Hearing Impaired
If you have bad eyesight or your hands shake due to old age, using a smartphone can be frustrating.
The touch flip phone can help solve some of these problems. Senior citizens frustrated with smartphones now have an alternative in several affordable new touch flip phones specifically designed for them.
These phones come with large, bright keys that are easy to read and press. They also come with extra-large font displays and voice guides so seniors can still stay connected.
The TouchFlip Phone is a 4G non-smartphone that features a simple, easy-to-use SOS Emergency Call and SMS, location notifications, and enhanced Bluetooth technology.
The hearing aid compatible touch screen flips open to reveal an easy-to-read keypad. Opel Mobile makes it easier than ever to connect with your loved ones with its speed dial function.
