TTfone TT300 Star Big Button Simple Easy to Use Clamshell Flip SIM-Free all carriers 16 GB Mobile Phone - Red

This recent purchase replaced an identical same make mobile which was loosing its charge. To be fair, the old one was many years old,at a guess about 8 or 9 years so it was time it retired.It is used primarily to contact family a couple of times a week, it is reliable and the keyboard voices the numbers as you dial. There has never been a problem with the sound quality.On the first mobile we did have the emergency button initiate a call to services, mainly because we didn't know you had to disable it if you didn't want to use it. But also because the call button is on the back of the phone,easy to use in an emergency,but also easy to accidentally 'catch' if the phone is in a trouser back pocket.However these additional features,like the speaking keypad can easily be disabled in settings.Strangely,we found this little phone to be very reliable for use out of the country. We found that in Cuba it worked perfectly on a pay as you go basis when a smartphone on contract wouldn't. It also performed well in Thailand too.It comes with a charging cradle as well as a USB cable and plug.Because our use of it is minimal,it lasts for weeks between charges.If you want a reliable phone to make calls with and don't want anything too technical then this is the phone for you. Recommend.

Easy to set up and use ideal for older person

I bought this for my mum who had a similar phone that stopped working. As a spare phone they are really cool to have knocking about as they come Sim Free and not locked to any network provider. If like my mum you only want to make calls and send Texts and aren't concerned with following phone fashion these are ideal. Pros are the simplicity of use, they are very intuitive to use with no nasty menu surprises. The screen is clear and easy to read, the button/key pad is also well laid out and easy to follow. The charger stand is a nice touch. So why only 4 stars? It just feels a little flimsy, don't get me wrong it is well made and well put together and for someone like my mum who will treat it with respect and look after it, no problem. Wouldn't last long it I gave it to one of my kids!!!

I bought this for my elderly mother. She likes it - the big buttons, clear screen with big type, no confusing functions and ease of use. I thought the cradle charging would be very handy - solving the problem of that fiddly micro USB connection. But the cradle doesn’t work - hence the 3 stars instead of 5. In fairness I should’ve sent it back as faulty but didn’t want my mother to be without a phone for days at a time. Maybe the manufacturer wants to pick this up with me to turn those 3 stars into 5.

Perfect ffp.

Bought this for my mum whose elderly. I had to return a previous phone because she couldn't hear it but no ignoring this one!The ring tone is really loud and she will never miss a call. It looks great too, even though it's small the buttons are big and it's easy to use. My mum was so excited and pleased she couldn't wait to go and show it to the 'girls' in the care home!

The FM radio range is not the full range of FM

Arrived speedily. So easy to set up and really easy to use. Very simple which is why I bought it - don't need all the fancy gadgets on a smartphone just the ability to contact or text someone. The charger is a great idea and so much better than the fiddly little connector, although that is still available if necessary. I only have 2 minor niggles; after setting up my emergency call I walked the dog and dropped my bag in the process of playing with him and the button set off, gave my daughter quite a fright, so I have now turned it off; the second niggle is that when I inserted my sim the telephone directory can only read one number so the mobile no. and house no. have to be separate - took me a while to collect all the numbers again.
