Got this phone for my 93 year old mother. She is incapable of using a smart phone so a simple flip phone is ideal for her. It's so easy to operate. Just open the flip to answer calls and close it to hang up. It also puts the phone number right on the display so it's easy for her to give her number out without having to memorize it.

Love this phone, Have had a few orginal jitterbugs and loved them all, This model is the new one and i love it as the numbers are perfect size for me with my vision. and easy to use... (Still learning a few things on it) perfect size and not all that internet stuff) recommend this for anyone but especially seniors. Thank you Best Buy for carrying these and as I said small enough to fit in your pockets , especially cargo style shorts . Easy flip top to see. Only issue i don't like which is same on many phones, is that the screen goes off when I am still trying to read the fine print stuff. YOu won't be sorry for getting one.
I would recommend this to a friend

Purchased this for my 97 year old mother who had increasingly had difficulty in using her smart phone. She had been so frustrated in trying to call family members and receiving calls from them with little success. This phone has changed all of that!! She now places and receives calls with no difficulty, and is truly enjoying phone communication.

Best Flip Phone... ever. Large font, good speaker, & easy to use. Love it. Trust me, I have been through more than a few phones. Wish I would have done it years ago. I'm 70 y.o.

I bought this for my 82 year old mother. She had difficulty using other cell phones. We thought this would be easier. It has been. My mother now can answer her phone and dial out. I love the emergency red contact respond call button.it works! My mom pushed it and they called me.

This is the perfect phone for me. I love the red color. My favorite color. I am not very "tech" I just want a simple phone to talk on. I am so pleased the phone comes with an instruction book and people to call if help is needed. The woman in charge in the Best Buy store is very knowledgeable and helped me a lot. The monthly price is amazing. I am so very pleased!

This is a perfect cell phone for an elderly person. The display is has large information. The keys are large and has an optional emergency button. Depending on the plan you chose. it does cost $5.00 to go paperless. surprised us. But still a good option.

My 96 yr old dad was having a hard time with the smart phone, set him up with the jitterbug flip 2 and he has had no problems. We can actually get thru to him when we call now. Alex at Best Buy was awesome in helping us find the perfect phone for my dad!

A very simple phone that is great for the elderly or anyone that is averse to smart phones. As a smart phone owner I had to resort to reading instructions to set up speed dial for my elderly mother. But...phone is simple to use on a routine basis...open the lid, dial the number or press the speed dial #, talk and hang up by closing the phone. Can only hold a maximum of 9 numbers on speed dial but that is plenty for someone without too large of a contact list.

It is more compact than my previous HP printer. I absolutely love this printer, easy to set up, quiet, quick and I don't have to change ink cartridges. Once I factored in the cost of cartridges over the year etc it was a no brainer. I also want to thank the HP rep in the Boynton Beach store he was most helpful.

This phone has been a blessing. Very senior friendly, and easy for my 86 year old cognitively impaired mom to use. The charger stand makes it very easy for user's with limited use of their hands, or problems with eye sight. Service provider uses Verizon towers making service in rural area's a none issue.

This phone does the job: make and receive calls. Although the interface is fairly straight forward, this is not a good option for elders with early-mild dementia. Got this phone for my elderly mother and every day is groundhog day with explaining how to navigate it. She is also the type who never wanted to learn how to do anything for herself ever so that is the second portion of the battle.
There are plan options but we did not select the plan that enables the emergency alert/call so I cannot review that specifically. We also did not set up texting or test out the camera as those are too much for my mother to handle.
Overall the phone is decent but the individual who would use it should have decent cognitive capabilities. It is straight forward but does have 'extra steps' just to make a call which could over time become annoying.

Pretty easy to use - check dates - some have been in stock for over a year and need additional updates- we thought we had it all set up with a customer service person……
But it still wouldn’t work right - just needed that customer service person who knew about the updates - 4 tries to get someone that figured it out
