I bought this phone for my 81 year old aunt and now wish I had gone with a Samsung. The screen and buttons on this phone are small and compared to my Samsung I find it very fiddly and complicated to navigate. Phone can take and receive photo....I have not tried this function but cannot see how photos can be viewed in the correct size on the small screen. Sending texts and looking up contacts is not easy. I will not use Dori again.
Amazon CustomerSimplistic and easy to use Mobile Phone with possibility to use Whatsapp.
JAJVery easy to use for a person who does not like touch screen phones. But you have to switch off the Predictive Text to make any use of SMS and setting up needs someone with a good understanding of technology. Moving contacts from another phone is a real pain so remember to purchase a Memory Card first (it doesn't come with one a the internal storage is not accessible by the Contacts feature. Once set up and all the correct settings for the features made, it is very easy to use.
SidSpinnerThe phone is relatively slow. The phone takes time to receive command after pressing the button.
OmarDon't have any problem with Argos they were kind enough to exchange the first Doro 7060 phone that was not working properly for another phone but this phone is little better. Doro seem to have lost their way with this particular phone so don't waste your money buying one of these like I did as it was an expensive mistake for me
DavidIdeal for my elderly mum who needed WhatsApp. Easy to navigate and keep things to a minimum for ease of use.
ArgoscustomerTerrible phone. I had better in the 1990s.
jra bit too complicated for me - lots of tiny symbols to consider and point at -
kaybeeGot this phone for my wife because her fingers can not use a touch phone due to side effects after chemotherapy.
PeterNice flip-phone that uses 4G in the UK, Spain, and Portugal and 3G and T-Mobile in the USA. Poor dictionary, forcing one character at a time with confirm to avoid stupid spellings. Keyboard developed bad key bounce. Confirm/OK would bounce and send the partial message.Amusing to my daughter, but needing three or four texts to complete my message, I was thoroughly frustrated. Squeezing the closed unit slightly causes the phone to turn itself back on. A really POOR product.
SpringbokAnyone wanting a straightforward phone that’s easy to use, and set up, this must be it. Good quality and comes with a charging cradle.
MarconiBought this for my 88 year old father in law. Very easy to use, loud ringer, clear screen and large buttons to press.
MlbThis phone is good for anyone wanting to do calls, texts and occasional internet use. Small screen makes it difficult to view web pages but is fine for emails and ok if you just want to check something on the internet without needing a lot of info.
avziTop fone for those a little older that just want simple functionality ...
SparkiusMaximusBought this phone for my wife who struggles with phone stuff. It was advertised as having WhatsApp which she was going to use on visit to Canada. We'll it's now well into August and still not ready for WhatsApp. Doro only say its coming soon. I feel therefore quite mislead by the adverts. Secondly I would not get another phone without Windows or Android.
Andy75I bought this model as I thought it would be easy to use still as my first smarter phone allowing me learn to use Whatsapp (as advertised in argos cat) for easier & cheaper msging while abroad . However it did not have whatsapp in the app store which I was most disappointed at as this was the main reason I bought a new phone! daughters tried to look for Messenger as they thought this would also suit my needs , however I have had to add facebook to get this which just complicates things for me.
JudyCThis model is all I want in a mobile phone. I don't want to surf the internet with it but to just use it to make and receive calls and occasional texting. Screen size is good, text size is large enough to read easily. It has many nice ring tones to choose from. I like the fact that it has a flip lid so as not to accidentally press any buttons whilst in your pocket. Easy charging in the cradle dock.
JohnThe phone is great looking and compact, the docking station is brilliant, the phone is so easy to use. I bought the phone for my wife who has learning difficulties and was unable to use a touch screen phone which are far too complicated for her, but she can use the Doro phone which is far, far easier, it's given her more freedom and self confidence, love the Emergency feature. Thank you Doro
TerryAfter using Doro previously was due to update..larger screen and buttons..but even when set to large scale..texting on this model for anyone sight impaired is impossible.. very disappointed had to go back to old model.
Cantseeathingjust what I was looking for, simple phone to use with text and e-mails nothing complicated even my wife can use it who as never used or switched a computer on. I would recommend this phone to anyone who just one something simple and easy to use.
