Great phone!

Error
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Could not use the phone after I set it up. It gave me an error and said to call costumer service. I called but because it was Christmas they were closed and had to wait the next day.

Plan For Jitterbug Smart2 Is Misleading!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The phone looks like an excellent product but when we called for service, we were mislead. The box indicates no contract and monthly charges of $17.00. When we tried to activate the phone, the charges turned out to be $42.00+. The vendor claims that the additional monies are New York State taxes. The phone was returned to Best Buy and a full refund issued. Buyers Be Ware!

Senior Smart
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far it is a good phone to have for seniors like me. You can understand it and find your way around easily.....the only thing is it has to be charged more often.

It is a steep learning curve, but we are pleased.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only thing we've found that we don't like is that the conference call feature that is talked about in the in-phone instructions apparently doesn't really work.

SIGNAL S POWER VERY POOR - NO BARS IN HASTINGS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This phone does not give the signal strength that the advertising says it will. In Grand Island Ne I get all bars but about 8 milies souith of Grand Island and on in to and around Hastings there is mostly no bars, sometimes the 1 little bar. Certainly does not do what advertising says it will in the Hastings area. I am on my 2nd phone, thinking the 1sr phone was defective but the 2nd phone is no better. Best Buy is trying to help with the problem but no luck. Need to contact the manufacturer of the phone.

Battery life less than 2 days with WIFI and BT off
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this phone for my mother. While she does like it, she has to always use the speakerphone or she can not hear the caller. But the real problem is battery life. Even with WIFI off, Bluetooth off and notifications off, the battery will not last more than 36 hours even when not in use. Since I don't live with her I noticed this just after the 15 day return had expired.
