According to our mobile phone expert
A smartphone with all the conveniences of a senior citizens phone: that's the Doro 8035. The device has a 5-megapixel camera for taking photos and videos. Do you want to send a photo or a message to one of your contacts? It's fast, thanks to the 4G internet connection. You can easily read incoming messages on the 5-inch HD screen, thanks to the extra-large letter display. The extra-loud ringtone ensures you won't miss any incoming calls. On the back of the device, there's an emergency button that you can press in case of an emergency. The Doro 8035 immediately sends your location and calls the preset emergency contact.

For my nearly 70-year-old husband, who was very attached to his old Nokia, switching to a smartphone is quite a step.. This model gives clear explanations and instructions on how to use the device... Satisfied with it; can now also take pictures of the grandchildren when he goes out with them....

The device usually does what it has to do for our 84-year-old mother/grandmother, although it does take some getting used to. The Doro does its best to turn itself off but still has many features that older people don't care about and can be confusing. It would be nice if you could disable those things so she can't accidentally tap them. Furthermore, the very large and legible text is very useful. The included charging dock is a pleasure, just a shame the Doro doesn't fit in with a case around. Her previous cellphone was also a Doro and it had an LED light that flashed very brightly when a missed call or text came in. We miss that a bit with this device. All in all, certainly not a bad buy, but it is not a panacea! I believe that Doro has done almost everything possible to make a device with touchscreen that seniors can use, but it still requires a lot of extra explanation from the (grand) children.

Fairly easy for seniors. Very slow.
