KEY FEATURES: Great camera quality from the easy to use 13MP, high resolution camera with a bright LED flash. Elderly-centric features include a customisable user interface, with help from Google Assistant, as well as Doro’s unique Response button on the back of the handset (more on that later). Thanks to this screen protector’s super-clear material, you’ll retain that clear and sharp view of your phone’s screen without compromising on safety. We test everything from how easy it is to set up the phone for the first time, to how straightforward it is to add contacts and send texts.

The device features sensors that can detect light and proximity to them, which are located near to the front facing camera. Qualcomm Snapdragon 215 processor and 2GB of RAM is enough to get the basics done with reasonable speed.Designed in Scandinavia, this handset has been durably designed to withstand a few bumps and knocks without breaking, thanks to the built-in screen protection - because accidents happen. I had hoped that this would be a good phone for my husband, who owned one of the first Doro smartphones which had come to the end of its useful life.
