Despite manufacturers pushing handsets crammed with the latest technologies, features, applications, connectivity options, cameras and so on and so on, some people still just want to talk with their mobile phone.
Vodafone already has some Simply handsets, and now Swedish manufacturer Doro has announced two basic handsets aimed at the elderly who either can use or don’t get new mobile technologies.
The Doro HandlePlus 324gsm (left) has only seven buttons and is aimed at those with limited hand movements or those who want a simple handset that’s easy to use. Users can also pre-programme five numbers for direct access (so no more random calls from elderly relatives confused by their address book).
The HandleEasy 326gsm (right) is a bit more, well, complicated. It has a full number pad, LCD display, vibrating ringtone and speakerphone capability.
The HandlePlus 324gsm is being released now, in time for Christmas, available from BioAcoustics for £79.99. The HandleEasy 325gsm is following in January, priced £99.99 from BioAcoutstics and Argos.
