Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red) Reviews
86 of 86 people found the following review helpful Jitterbug is Just, By Linda Hanson (OMAHA, NE, US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red) (Wireless Phone Accessory) I ordered the Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red) for my Mom. She absolutely does not know how to use anything...cell phone, cd player, computer. This phone is perfect for her. All she has to do is open it, arrow up or down to the person she wants to call, and push call. She loves it. The phone came in perfect condition at a much, much lower price than if purchased from a retail store in person. It is easily set up with easy to read instructions and easily accessible "real people help" if you need to call.Anyone technologically challenged who wants a cell phone just for calling, or wants one for a loved one in the same situation should seriously consider Jitterbug. Consumer Cellular has a great deal, but their service is spotty, and there were numerous dead spots when using their phone. Jitterbug has no problems. I was a skeptic, but this phone has proven me wrong. 28 of 28 people found the following review helpful Great for ease of use and Seniors, By Andee (NY, NY) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red) (Wireless Phone Accessory) I bought for my Aunt who is in her 80's, it is her first cellphone. She loves the phone although it is a little bigger than I thought it would be. The Jitterbug people are so nice and are available 24/7. I was able to completely program all the numbers on my computer for her on her phone.The phone has a speaker button and is loud so that's good. There is no 911 button. She would have to dial 911 then hit send. Not sure if that would present a problem in an emergency. The gray button on the outside should be removed it is just to change the volume but she accidently hits it sometimes. It should really be on the side like a regular cellphone. All in all, definitely great to have instead of/or with an emergency button. 52 of 58 people found the following review helpful Not Good., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Jitterbug J Cell Phone (Red) (Wireless Phone Accessory) I got this phone for my brother, who's an invalid. Luckily, I decided to charge and activate the phone before giving it to him.When I received the Jitterbug, I plugged it in to charge it. After a few hours the screen said, "Charge completed." So I unplugged and called GreatCalls to have the phone activated. The operator picked up in about a minute. (Good.) But already I could tell the reception was poor - I couldn't hear every other word or so. The operator told me it was because I hadn't charge the battery long enough - even though the screen said, "Charge complete," I should charge it for 12 hours. (I thought he sounded a little irritable, but maybe that was my imagination. He did, after all, have to repeat himself because of the bad connection.) So I plugged the phone back into the charger. The next day, after more than 12 hours of charging, when I again called GreatCalls to activate the phone, it continued to crackle and then lost the call... Read more |
