    The product may be okay, I don't know because it is not set up. "Customer Service" is awful. They have wasted my time! At this point it is just a paper weight.

    Bought this phone for my 94 year old mother. It has frozen and we cannot turn it off or do anything with it. A piece of junk.

    Good reception and battery life.

    So far it is working very well. I live in an iffy area for reception, but it is working here. The battery is much better than other phones i have had, so that is a plus. I don't use a cell phone a lot, and previous ones have always been dead after just a day or two. Easy to use.

    Good simple phone at a very reasonable price. Battery life and speaker have been improved. Transfer of old number, contacts, calendar and other data was very easy.

    The Jitterbug is an easy, simple device I purchased for my Grandmother. It was affordable, and easy to setup. She has had it about a month with no issues so far!

    I got this for my mother in law , she said she needs bigger buttons and easy to use phone, she came from a candy bar style phone Benefits - big screen, big buttons, layout is simple Cons- just like any tech for an 82 year old, just need patience and time to show them how to answer, and dial a number. But she likes it so far, 3 weeks into using it.
