Doro 8100 4G Unlocked Smartphone for Seniors - Easy Mobile Phone - 13MP Triple Camera - Water-resistant Android Phone - 6.1" HD Display - Assistance Button with GPS [UK and Irish Version] (Black)

I have just finished setting this phone up for a close family member over 90! I'v been very impressed with the additional software and features Doro have added to this basic Android phone. While i don't think she could have set it up herself, for the scenario where a somewhat tech savy person is going to do the initial setup, I would highlight recommend.Doro have added a customised home screen, widgets and apps which making using the phone very easy and straight forward, as well as improving the menus and setup for increasing the size of fonts or icons.The plus pack comes with everything you will need, a case, screen protector and charging stand which can hold the phone without removing the case. The phone itself is a low end spec, and can be a little slow if your used to iPhone's ect, however, for this use case its perfectly fine.

ProsEasy to setup and simple to use even for the novice mobile user.ConsNo wireless charging and it won't fit the charging cradle unless you buy the Doro case.

Easy to use , nice size number and letters for me to use as I have problems with my hands . Good battery life last longer than my old phone .has all the functions I need and found I can use them easy . The design is good looks nice and all things are in the right place make it easy to use .

Bought this for my elderly mum and it was honestly perfect. You just need to make sure you are there for the setup and to help teach them how to use apps etc. If they've never used a smart phone before. You can set massive icons on the desktop so they can access WhatsApp easily. Sound quality on the mic and speakers was fine, battery didn't seem amazing however. Fast phone, it's a bit big for someone who is learning as they can struggle with hand placement but the big screen size is also an advantage.

This was bought for the emergency response button and that is fine. It`s easy to use for a pensioner but only if they`ve used a smartphone before.Cons, needs charging more often than previous phone and the SD slot is useless. The tray is very flimsy and the card moves about, more often than not it says it`s missing. I`ve emailed Doro support and am still waiting for advice from them.

Excellent product

My mobile is 15 years old so thought I should upgrade it. This one is advertised as suitable for the elderly. Thinking it would be ideal I ordered one and got a friend to set it up. Firstly there isn't a pin to extract the SIM holder, so she used her own. Setting up wasn't easy at all, but eventually managed it. No instructions are supplied for using the phone, so I got another friend to talk me through it. She had great difficulty finding out what was what. Both my friends have Smart Phones but didn't find this one easy at all. I had to send it back.

Great mobile for those with poor eyesight.Large Icons. Easy to use. Came with desk charger, case and screen protector. Great value
