I ordered a phone for the elderly with big numbers, places for loved ones pictures as contacts, and an SOS button says it works well with those who have hearing loss, and vision loss. My mother does not hear well in person, and her eyesight is bad as well mostly small print and such.She doesn't seem to have issues hearing on the phone, but the enhanced audio would probably be good. My dad needs something like this so he could dial 911 in an emergency..I mean with this phone, I think all you have to do is push a button similar to a cell.He should be able to handle that. Sis will probably be up there for Mother's Day, and can help set it up.

I bought the same for my husband 10 days ago. He does not arrive to use a cellphone.

Thanks, I do try to be thoughtful with my gift giving, but it seems like my sis never likes hers. I ask what she wants and she doesn't say anything. I think I will go gift card this year at least for Christmas.. I know what I will get her for her bday, and I do think she will like that.

I’ve seen those phones before. They look really helpful for older people.

I really got this with my dad in mind, but I think it will make it easier for both of them.

What a great gift. I need to order hubby a phone like this. He absolutely cannot operate a smartphone which I consider totally weird but he's who he is.....I'm sure your parents will love their gift.

I hope so, but you never know about them. They might think they don't need it, and shove it in a closet.
