artfoneC1 Black 2G GSM,Big Button Mobile Phone, Unlocked Senior Mobile Phone with SOS, Big Battery 1800mAh,USB Type C,Three Side Buttons More Easier.

Phone works as intended, good build quality despite its lightweight form. Very easy to use.I purchased this phone for myself 32 year old male, to use my smartphone less. And it's been brilliant. It works with giffgaff network on 2GSends texts and calls very well. Great audio quality and loud. Actually better audio than my smart phone. Can hear people much clearer on the phone not to mention the signal is superior to my smart phone.Has a few ringtones, can set your own too if you bluetooth them to your phone.Battery life is great after 2 - 3 days now it's still almost full and hasn't run out or died yet.Texting is easy doesn't have auto correct or predictive text.Phone has no WiFi (not even sure why you'd want it on a device like this though) but does infact have Bluetooth. It works for sending and receiving files such as mp3 or jpeg images. You can not install apps like WhatsApp. But it's £17 you have to remember it's £17! Or was when I ordered it atleast !The camera is diabolical but it's there if you wish to use it. I actually had a great time trying to take pictures of me and my partner, we laughed our heads of at the images of our necks instead of our faces lol ! But that's that.Radio works nicely and doesn't require the headphones to workThe SOS button works brilliantly so would be great for an elderly user or medically dependent person.Flash light is functional and works easily.I love the lock switch on the side of the device very simple and works flawlessly.Solid 8 out of 10 for meBad pointsThis model c1 2g does not have vibrate mode ( it does have silent ) but phone will not vibrate. Bit disappointed with that but hey ho £17 remember.Bluetooth will not connect to my carFor hands free calls but I suppose that's because my cars Bluetooth is probably much more up to date than the Bluetooth on the phonePhone has absolutely no Internet capability at allBut it does have a 3.5mm audio jack so you can put music on an sd card and listen to it whilst out and about or taking callsUSB C charging is a bonus too

Great wee phone. Got for elderly dad. He love how opening it answers calls, and closing it ends them. Hassle free. Good loud ringing tones.

4g variant. Entering contacts is a bit slow. Capitalising initial letters is tedious but works. Two entry methods, Nokia-like where you press buttons rapidly to select character and bespoke where you move cursor over selection.Unlike some senior phones you can actually turn off the power up and down melody that is most annoying. Quite small with a good charging dock that uses pogo contacts. Charging connector is USB C shape but uses USB 2 (5V only) protocol, will not charge if connected to a full-spec multi-voltage USB C charger. You can charge in the dock or directly on the phone.Supports hands free mode, press right multi-function button during a call. Handbook, lacks much info but at least makes the process of installing SIM card clear. During charging the external phone and message lights become charging and charged. FM radio does NOT require headphones to be connected.Overall a useful emergency, senior or child phone. Reasonably robust. Replaceable battery, 1 SIM slot , 1 micro SD slot.Update: The SOS Function first give a two tone warning and the right multi-function button allows the procedure to be cancelled if SOS button pressed by mistake. (Some phones have no way to cancel apart from removing battery.)Strongly advise that for elderly people, the charging cable is connected to the docking station permanently so the phone can just be dropped in to charge; gravity holds the charging pins in contact with phone - charging could not be easier and no contact wear. Phone can be operational or powered down whilst being charged.

Nice lightweight phone bought to replace my husband’s old phone he’d had for years. He didn’t want anything too complicated so this fits the bill well.

Sold as simple phone for seniors !!!! I found this phone to have a horrific menu system and a useless user manual. Having switched on, the home page displays "Contacts" Expecting this to display a list of contacts turned out to be too much to hope for. It only lets you enter new contacts. Where does it store them?? The manual suggests a phonebook. After two days of trying I still haven't found the phonebook. I use a Motorola smartphone and getting this up and running was infinitely less confusing than the Artphone.

Well when it worked, the phone was easy to use, and my elderly mother liked the 3 dedicated speed dial buttons, plus the fact it had 9 other speed dials that could be assigned to the number keys. The calls were clear and the sound was good. The problem is despite not really being used much, the phone died within 9 months, and trying to get hold of someone to make a guarantee claim is nigh on impossible. The Artfone website shows an email address that you can't contact and a phone number that appears to be for an insurance services company. So all in all, it looks like it could be £41 down the grid.

Nice big numbers, clear screen, bought for a pensioner as O2 are turning off the 2g and 3g networks off in August, this is 4g so happy days.
