This is a superb phone for a senior or whomever a smartphone is not appropriate.
My wife is in a nursing home & has no desire to learn to use a ssmartphone. I got her non-smart easy to use phone which bit-the-dust. Then I got her another one by a different manufacturer which according to reviews was supposed to have speed dial which she has to have due to limited use of her hands. As it turned out you have to toggle through your favorites then click on the person you want to call, some "speed dial". I was getting frustrated trying to find her a phone she could use. This artfone looked like it might be the one for her according to the picture & description. I got it yesterday, put the sim in, set it up. It is a very nice looking phone and has big numbers. For speed dial you can set A and B and 9 more numbers. Plus you have the option for answering to press any key or open it up which will really be convenient for her. It has typical menu options for a phone in this price range. So far battery life seems to be good. The only minus I would give it is the manual. It gives the basics but you will have to play around with it to figure out some stuff such as call & ringer volume and the like. Overall I am very happy with the phone as I'm sure my wife will be. I recommend this phone. Follow up: I can hear her well, her volume needed to be set to 7 to hear me well. Of course this depends on the person.

No Battery
Bought for my father living In Ghana, who wanted a button senior. After receiving phone they called to tell me the package was intact but it didn't have a battery, and they have gone to phone shops to find the battery but to no avail

Easy to use!
Very simple to use for orderly people! I bought it for my mom, the only think we didn’t like is that you can’t put a picture on the persons number which makes more easier for an older person to identify who’s calling, but in overall we like the volume and how clear sounds.

Not senior friendly.
It is not senior friendly. No instructions to speak of. Voice mail key does not work when you push the number 1 key. I would not recommend this to most seniors. Hard to navigate menu section.

Good phone for seniors
I liked the speaker, which is loud. I disliked a little the menu, which is not simple enough for my senior mother.

Works good with a charged battery
I purchased this phone for my mother who was having difficulty with operating a smart phone.This phone has large buttons , incredible volume and "tells " you what button you've pushed. It says "one" when you press 1 etc.It is less than intuitive when it comes to setting it up but , with a little effort, works fine.The only issue we're having is with battery life. It does not last for even a couple hours.I have contacted the seller and they decided to send me a link to where I can buy another battery?!!This is a new phone. Shouldn't the battery work when the the phone is new?I think that I will unfortunately have return this item. I wish the seller would make it right because she likes this phone :-(

Seller Doesn't Stand Behind Product
Bought it 3 months ago. It stopped accepting a charge. Now it doesn't do anything. I contacted the company that I bought it from. They said buy a new battery, using 'this" link. I clicked on the link that they provided, and it led to a battery that is no longer available.That is the customer service that they provide for a 3 month old product.This phone was lightly, and gently used. If you look at the phone, it is still like brand new.Absolute garbage.I do NOT recommend this Seller to anyone!

Don't buy this phone, garbage
Purchased this phone brand new in April 2021 and stopped working in Aug. 2021 - just right after the warranty period. Took it to local store and suspected to be the battery problem but the replacement battery is not available both USA and Canada. Too expensive to own this phone.****After compliant to vendor, here is what the vendor responded. Opening the back plate is required to insert the SIM card and the vendor called it 'disassembled'. What a terrible response?26-Aug-2021 11:50 PMhelloThe specific reason is known only after the machine is disassembled. You can take it to a nearby cell phone repair shop to check it out.

basic and simple to use.
Love this phone it was exactly what i was looking for... you can call out, incoming calls, and text, for me it doesn't seem to catch wifi but this is not a deal breaker for me as this is not what I purchased it for. Great phone for a great price!

No picture comes up on phone & can’t access any options
I purchased the Artfone 3G Unlocked for my father as a gift. It arrived April 15. My father was happy with the cell up to today. The screen on the phone looks distorted and you cannot access any of the options. I called Amazon and was told it is past their return policy??? I guess you get a 1 month warranty?? Not a happy customer
