SO FAR SO GOOD
10 June 2024  | 

I purchased the phone for my dad who is losing his hearing. I have bought a few different phones for him in the past and they never seem to last. So far so good with this one. It has very loud volume - even too loud for him! It seems easy to use. At the moment we are pleased with the purchase. Good ordering process and quick delivery.
