Snapfon "ez ONE" Cell phone for Seniors w/ big buttons, Loud speaking keypad, so easy to see and use

I am 62 and searched for a simple easy to use cell phone and bought this one about a month ago. I think it is simpler than most, but I would like to see improvement. I hope with their next model that Snapfon will do the following.

1---Leave the Radio and ear plugs off. It is so cheap as to be useless, but we don't want a radio anyway. We want the best and simplest way to talk.

2---Leave off the alarm and calculator. We don't want that either. We would prefer to use our own alarm clock and calculator. Instead of these features use those 2 buttons to simplify the menu.

If you are a senior citizen, or have a senior in your life, this is one fantastic gift for them. The phone is large enough to easily hold, and the big, well lit buttons, are easy to read and push. You won't have any problems pressing the wrong keys accidentally. The added feature of "talking keys" makes it invaluable to the visually challenged. The special red button feature that allows you to pre-program emergency numbers also helps provide peace of mind. It's a breeze to set up with AT&T, just a matter of transferring the SIM card from the old cell phone. There are detailed instructions on how to do this provided with the phone. I purchased this for my 87 year old mother, who loves it, and is completely at ease using it.

My elderly father absolutely loves his Snapfon! Now he can dial all numbers easily once again, without misdialing due to very small keypads of current cell phones. His stored contacts are readily found with just one scrolling push of the top arrow key. The ringer is loud, the numbers large and easily seen, and he does not have to fumble with opening a flip phone. I searched all cell carriers, specialty stores, and the internet trying to find a phone he could use with our current plan to no avail. Finally I found Snapfon - it is senior friendly, and even has one touch dialing for eight numbers. Way to go!!!
