Doro 6520 7118 ​Flip Mobile Phone for Elderly with Large Screen, Big Talking Number Keys and Assistance Button (Graphite/White)

Product Information

There is also a full numerical keypad and a number of shortcut keys to create messages or activate the camera. But there’s more here than meets the eye and, crucially, it’s easy to use. Is that enough for it to carve out a niche in 2017? Read on to find out. Screen

This isn’t a phone that you’ll be playing videos on, so the limited size and resolution really isn’t much of a problem.The Doro 6520 has a clamshell design, so you flip it open to see the screen and use the keypad. That makes it compact but chunky, at 103.9 x 55.1 x 19.2mm, and it’s light at just 103g. The Doro 6520 is a clamshell, or flip phone as we used to call them, with a 2.8-inch display that’s easy to read.

This display is not a touchscreen but it’s still easy to navigate the device’s menu through the physical directional keys on the phone.It’s chunky and the camera could be better (since even those without smartphone needs would probably like to take the occasional picture) but otherwise the Doro 6520 is a solid, simple handset and worth the money. It’s not going to win any design awards, but the Doro 6520 is simple and holds its own among other feature phones.
