ComputerGuy Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 With failing eyes and difficulty hearing, most cell phones are useless. When someone calls, the display is too tiny, and the ringing too low. Anyone overcome this here, by finding a cell phone that you can actually enlarge the text on... AROUND LAKESIDE? I had one once... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Yes, thanks, there are a variety online, but I'd rather hoped I could find one around here, with someone having actual hands-on knowledge or experience. I'm willing to bet it would be a big seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayBearII Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Some cell phones vibrate, don't they? An alternative that would probably give me a heart attack, but might be useful for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
More Liana Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Samsung makes a big-screen phone, my wife has one and loves it. http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-3_id7984 Sony makes one too: http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Sony-Xperia-Z2_id8323 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 A big screen actually generally doesn't help. It's the size of the incoming call numbers. On a regular cell, they are all the same and can't be adjusted, I'm finding out. Of course, another problem is colour screens that you can't read in the sun... Meantime, the gal at the phone store across from the garage at Plaza Bugambilias is being very helpful, testing different models with me. She knows her stuff and has oodles of patience. There is always a lineup for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux4noff Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I like my Samsung S3mini. I find it easy to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bezerk Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Samsung S4 or the new Note is a pretty large screen etc. Also have hubby and son with Sansung S4 mini and love that one also but not as large a screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
