Easy to use, even for elderly folks!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Portal has been a great way to be able to video chat with my elderly mother. At 87, smart phones and computers are not her thing. This was so easy to set up it made things very simple. Once I set it up at my home, I brought it to the assisted living facility and one of the staff brought it to her room and plugged it in for her. After that it took one short phone call to make sure she was sitting at her desk and when I called on the Portal, we were up and running!

Very nice way to video chat!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve only used this a couple times so far, and it works extremely well. The only drawback is that you can’t just use the contacts in your phone, it has to be FB or WhatsApp and the people have to accept the invitation.

Helped while quarantining during COVID-19. Love it
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the portal!! We actually purchased for other family members also. Little did we know that during the global pandemic it would come in very handy with keeping in touch with friends and family . Most of all it helped tremendously during my father’s hospitalization for 30 days due to having the coronavirus. We would have all my sisters and my mom and numerous video chats a day for over 30 days. We used it also as a secondary video stream of my daughter in laws virtual baby shower. We did a Zoom meeting with all the guests and then had the portal set up to stream the shower live for those who could not join. It’s really been great to physically see and talk to family and friends all over the country.

Best Camera System!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is absolutely one of the best devices for video calling available. Our family uses this device to keep in contact, especially when COVID cases were at an all-time high, I'm not too crazy about the newer design but it still works well. If you can get it on sale for $80 like I did, it is more than worth the price for what it does. The camera has a good tracking system that allows it to stay focused on you even as you move around. Note, you can perform video calling with anyone who has a Facebook Messenger account on their phone or tablet.

Worth the price.

She loves it and was pretty easy to set up and connect her accounts to it. Downloading photos is not as easy though.
