    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.

    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.

    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!

    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!

    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 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.

    The phone is a simple, basic phone with big butons for seniors that only need to talk (primarily) and text (occassionally). After being assured that Best buy would move the contacts from the old phone (Samsusung 10 Android) to the new phone, the Best buy rep expoerted all the contacts to a SD card - and charged me for it - and then after 10 minutes, said there were too many contacts and that we would have to move them manually without providing any instructions. Once we tried there was no way to access the SD card in the Lively phone and were told that they have to be manually input. Bottom line line - decent phone for seniors but Best buy "total Tech" is a joke and doesn't deliver what they promise - is that fraud?

    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.

    I bought this phone for my 83 year old mother who only desires a flip phone. This was the best flip phone that was out there at a great price. My mother loves it, and the beautiful color that it comes in. She is very satisfied with this purchase. Thank you, Best Buy for giving her the opportunity to continue to be able to purchase a flip phone at an affordable price.

    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.

    Decent phone and fairly straightforward to use

    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.

    I bought this for my husband as an easy to use flip phone since he won't learn to use a smart phone. He learned to use it when someone programmed most used phone numbers, but still doesn't use it.

    The improvements from my 5 year old Lively are remarkable. I stayed with the Flip 2 Cell Phone for seniors because my hands are small and the larger phone with more features wasto large and would not fit in pockets. Definitely recommend this new phone, I am 89.
