Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this phone for my senior father. He was using a semi-smart phone with a touch screen that was a real pain for him. I considered getting a new fully smart phone for him, but then I saw this phone and a great Black Friday deal at Best Buy. Considering everything he really needs in a phone (calling people, basically), this one seemed perfect, and indeed it has been. I set the phone up for my father, which was easy to do with Lively, and they have a great $20 a month plan with unlimited call and text. Then I added some contacts for him. I didn't sign up for the health alerts because he already has another plan, but it's a great option. That was really all I needed to do to get this into a shape that will be useful for him. It's nice that the phone also does texts, takes photos, has a flashlight, etc., but he probably won't use those features. It's just large enough for him to see and push the buttons, but small enough to fit in his shirt pocket. So, overall, I highly recommend this for an older person looking for a straightforward cell phone.

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.

I bought this for my 90 year old Father and it was perfect. It's simple, easy to use, large, very loud (Which I needed as his hearing aids aren't always in), and best of all he seems to be able to use it fairly well compared to other phones.

My husband and I bought this phone for my elderly mother-in-law who can't use the typical smart phones. It's been a very reliable phone for her with an easy to navigate menu for making calls. Battery life is very long.

Great phone for seniors - large keypad and clear instructions for use.

It's an easy to use flip phone. I didn't want a smart phone or be forced to buy a data plan. This phone is exactly what I needed as all I do is make phone calls on it. The numbers and keys are in larger print so that's an added bonus.

Love it! So glad they offer two colors I chose red The numbers are big. It is so easy to use it’s perfect phone for seniors.

I like this Lively Jitterbug flip2 cellphone. It's mostly easy to use and has features I need and does not have features I don't need in a cellphone, like internet access. The one feature I would wish was improved is the 8 mb camera, which could very much use an anti-shake mechanism that point-and-shoots have, and increased resolution, which would be valued by me. I'd also like the flash to be able to be turned off, but maybe I haven't yet figured how to do that.

Great phone. This is for a senior family member. The phone is fairly easy for them to use (age 82). Large display. Has speaker phone option. Clear and loud audio/ring settings. The Urgent Response button in itself is fantastic and very well worth it. Highly recommend

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.

We have tried other phones with no success. But with the Jitterbug, it is the perfect phone for my 7) year old husband who is not fond of technology. This phone came with an instruction guide, big buttons, big letters and numbers so he can see them. It’s great!!

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 for my mother who had a smartphone but was a bit complicated as she is from the type writer generation and she loves it. Plus has an emergency button

great little phone got it for my Dad easy to use

Bought this for our 89 year old mother in law. The transfer from one provider to Lively took a visit to the other providers store and three very lengthy phone calls to finally get the transferred number onto the new Lively device. The Lively operators (two of them) told me that this happens all the time and about 50% require a couple of different troubleshooting actions to fix. Once that occurred still the product needed to be restarted 3 times to get the highest volume (in and out) to be accepted and working. The reason I am giving it 3 stars and not worse is because now that all of those problems have been worked through the phone works well and is easy for her to use.

It's a good phone to practice on. It introduces you to cell phone technology. And it's simple to use. I've had some good help from the people at Lively for detailed instructions/corrections. I'm pleased with the purchase. Being a senior and late in the tech game, it has appeal that way.

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.

Bought it for my mother and the larger buttons are a big plus. I don't like that the screen goes dark after a couple of minutes (I was told by a rep that I talk to on the phone that it does that to save the battery, but it's annoying). It's user friendly, but even though we have Verizon, our signal is never at a decent/normal level.

Phone arrived very quickly (within 2 days). Looks very nice and buttons are very large and easy to see/read. For the most part, device is easier to use than other similar flip phones. Have not yet used camera so cannot rate.

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.
