The device is designed wonderfully. It can be set up so that even a technically completely lowbrow senior visually impaired can handle it. The keys are large and illuminated, the selection of eight (!) Numbers over pictures hardly has another device, the charging cradle is comfortable, stable and solid, the housing solid, non-slip (slightly rubberized), the keyboard is fixed. Even for technically sophisticated mobile phone is appealing: 2 SIM card slots! Quad for worldwide operation, long battery life, 300 phone book seats, Bluetooth, simple connection to a PC to copy jpg files (by the way - to save you time tests - 80 x 80 for the portraits, 190 x 240 for display to store in the phone folder "Photos"), etc., etc. The decor is, if you want to exploit all natural time-consuming, and it is, as always, well, if you're a bit familiar with computers, but it all works very well and has a clear system. The downloadable on the Internet complete manual (PDF) leaves a few questions; the rest have to ertesten. All this I found out when I set the phone to my father (89, in the hospital), which took a whole day. Then the first test call - and a blow to the neck: - positioned off-center, but in the left quarter - The built-in microcomputer takes manifestly deficient in, or the signal is poorly evaluated. No matter which network and at what point you make a call, the communication is totally inadequate and impossible just for seniors. Even if one pays attention when speaking, hold the device so that the microphone is close to your mouth (in the rest of a cramped, unnatural posture, so I do not like calling it ...), hardly improved somewhat. At the receiver, only noisy word chunks arrive, repeatedly interrupted completely, a kind of communicative island hopping with a guaranteed crash landing ... Well, a Monday copy. Fax to Olympia sent as friendly feedback on the quality control and with a request for comments. Reaction to this day: absolutely no. You probably already know - or want to know nothing? Who knows ... anyway scandalous. Okay, so Exchange. Back to the dealer, unpacked in place a new copy, and SIM charged battery of the 1st device in, and the same test on the phone - including with the traders themselves ... result: the same devastating acoustic quality !!! Even the dealer was "dissatisfied" ... Since both devices were in their original packaging (and also some reviews tell about it here), this appears to be a systemic weakness of such "mobile phones for seniors." Why, I wonder ??? That a traditional German company that still mitmischt in hot global mobile phone market, has designed a beautiful machine, it then but completely sifted with his main purpose and, moreover, allows customer inquiries unanswered, I find deeply disappointing. It fatally recalls the Berlin airport. If the thing could well make calls, it deserves 5 stars. But how many stars deserves a telephone in which one understands nothing?
