Emporia Elegance and Solid Mobile Phones for the Elderly

The Emporia Elegance mobile phone has a 1.8" OLED display. The "menu navigation" is said to be intuitive. It is supposed to have an extra loud-speaker and also work well with hearing aids. This handheld is supposed to ship first, during the spring with a price of €129.

The Emporia Solid mobile phone, as the name suggests is supposed to be a rough and tough mobile handset. This one too has a 1.8" OLED screen. This handheld is said to come into the market shortly after the Elegance, with a price of €199.

From the looks of these handsets, they seem to offer basic functionality like calling, texting, single -click calling, maybe music and tools like reminders, clock, alarm and so on. They seem like mobile phones that the old people would appreciate, all thanks to the large buttons, high contrast screens, large display characters and simplicity in usage. Either of them are supposed to offer a talktime of about 3 hours and a standby time of 12 days.

Emporia Life Mobile Phone

A heap of appreciation should be showered on the Austrian mobile phone manufacturing company, Emporia for having designed a mobile phone specifically for the elderly and the partially disabled. The model is called the Emporia Life Mobile Phone .

For those find it hard to use a conventional mobile phone

Emporia of Austria acknowledges the fact that a good lot of elderly people along with a few partly disabled persons languish without accessibility to the wireless world concept, just for the petty reason that the average manufacturer is very much indulged in the thrills of the rat race to forget a bit of courtesy like that. The Emporia Life springs to significance here by introducing a special version with an extra large screen of 2.7”, backed up by a crisp orange backlight for people having failing vision. A superior, digital hearing aid compatible loudspeaker supported by an enhanced volume programme for the partly hearing impaired further strengthens the point. An extra powerful vibrating mode for the lack of quick reflexes due to aging and very large easily manageable buttons promptly follows.

Exclusive Features for backing the purpose

The model also come blessed with a unique Emergency Function that can be pre-programmed. The data storage memory of the phone that can hold up to 200 names is good in the circumstances. Another impressive feature adorning it is a short messaging service facilitating multicast of messages. The ring tones are of the polyphonic type coming at five different volume levels and an incoming call triggers off the orange LED flashing. Three more, coloured visual alerts are available in green, red and amber colours. In addition to these, the Emporia Life Black Mobile Phone also accommodates a simple calculator and an alarm clock.

In Emergencies

• The user can access five emergency numbers
• One touch for emergency calling numbers
• Emergency SMS sending options
• An integrated Flashlight
• Confirmation by DIMF detection

Conclusion

They call this base model mobile phone a life phone. Rightly so, it lives up to that in spite of a few drawbacks like a shorter battery life considering some other models of the same size, the touch buttons virtually huddled without any separation, so flat and glossy to manoeuvre with ease and a weak, SIM reading ability. However, these blemishes are condonable considering some models of the time coming with a number of purposeless features those highlight senselessness and opulence rather than convenience.
