Needed a non smart phone for my family member and so far it has been great. Was able to set up quickly, has special functions (like tracking, calling emergency, calling Lyft etc) that I wasn't aware of prior to purchase.

Was skeptical because I saw a lot of mixed reviews but this has worked out great for my grandma. She was having trouble answering the nursing home phone but with this, see is easy to talk to when ever we need to reach her.

The phone is great but the sales man that help me with my purchase was not up on his accuracy everything I wanted I had it already picked out on my iPhone it was nothing to discuss other than making out the paper for the flip phone Jetter Bug I wanted to keep my old number he said it was no problem but he sent the paper work in and My phone company to send me my six digit number but Jetter Bug carrier had the wrong number that I was supposed to keep so I never got to keep my number that I wanted from my old phone not very happy I would recommend the phone but you might want to go somewhere else to buy it

I love this new jitterbug flip phone. It's easy to use, has everything you could want on it, and so much more reasonably priced than the AT&T flip I owned. The AT&T bills were getting higher every month, even though my usage was minimal......just for emergency
calls only. I never chat on my cell phone, just the land line. There is also an emergency button on this new phone in case you are ever in trouble, help will be provided. I had one before, was talked into a new service, and regretted it. As soon as the jitterbug went on sale, I took advantage & ordered one. It was delivered in 2 days. The customer service dept. was great with helping me get connected. I'm so happy with my jitterbug flip!!

Great flip phone with large numbers and screen. Lively is also a good provider.

I picked this up for my mom who has problems using a smartphone. I setup it up quickly & I love the “Red Star” button so you can set that up to call a certain contact or contacts (like me & brother) instead of 911. Big buttons and Speaker phone works like a champ.

Overall it is a solid easy to use flip phone. My mentally disabled brother (about 1st grade level adult) can manage it well once the contacts were put in. Fair price point, excellent customer service. I do wish the volume buttons were not placed in the area where most people hold the phone as he accidentally turns off the volume. Best thing overall we’ve found for him

I brought this phone because I was looking for my elderly uncle to have some access to an emergency 911 without calling them. Also, I downloaded the app so I would be able to receive any alert. Just a side note phone carriers don’t have phones like to cater to elderly, and he loves it

I bought this phone for my mother who is 92. I thought it would be simple for her to use, but it's a bit confusing. She does know how to answer the calls which is great, but in the process she turns the volume down on the phone, so she can't hear it ring. For me it is a synch because I have and I-Phone, I know how to work it. the phone has everything you need, texting, voicemail, even a camera. I will keep the phone for the fact that there is a button to push for emergencies, which is wonderful!!

Bought for Mom who is in late nineties, Easy to use and best part on speaker she can hear other person. It is nice for her to have her own phone.

Got this phone for my 90 year old mom because the flip phone we got from Verizon was not user friendly. This one is. We had to switch service from our Verizon family plan and connect hers to the Lively carrier. It was worth the trouble to port her number. The Lively customer support is more accessible and personable than Verizon’s.

I like the most to be able to call the Operator and they will arrange for a ride with Lyft, I don't have to have the App. I miss being able to forward texts, but it's very easy to navigate. The User Guide isn't always helpful, you have to call them for clarification but the agents have been all very kind and patient and walked me through different processes. I love that to hang up you just close it, no frenetic finger up & down the screen. It's my main phone, small, fits in my pouch and I feel connected wherever I go. I have a second cell that I keep at home with a couple of apps that I favor, but it's too bulky to carry around comfortably.

This is the best phone out there for seniors. My Mom washed her first one in the washing machine and I was able to get a new one through BestBuy overnight. Lively was able to transfer her information and the phone works exactly like the old one which was very important to her.

My Mom likes the phone. Its a great phone. Its easy to answer the phone she just have to open the flip . The key pad are visible easy to type. Its a user friendly.

And its worth the price. Thanks to the JITTERBUG for making this amazing phone .....

I bought this flip phone for my older brother. It works great and has good reception. Also because of the easy to read keys and screen it works just right for him. He learned how to use it with ease.

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.

Very basic phone with large numbers. If you have an elderly parent/grandparent this is the perfect phone for them.
The only thing we found annoying was switching her account from her old phone to a new one. When you do you need the person that owns the account to do it. They won't let the son or daughter do it, you have to have the voice of the actual account holder.
