VTech Amplified Cordless Senior Phone with Answering Machine, Call Blocking, 90dB Ringer, Audio Assist, Big Buttons

The volume control on this is amazing. No more lost conversations. All the features are easy to use.. highly recommend!

This phone is packed with features tho even if you choose not to use them all, it's a great landlines phone. Good battery life, good range. Large keys are easy to use and see. Speaker is plenty loud. Answering machine is easy to use.

Like the sound, they’re a little hard for elderly to use, and also I wish they held more contacts 50s not very many.

Purchased along with the VTech SN5307 Amplified Photo DIAL Accessory Handset. Mom was really struggling with her old Panasonic wireless phones. Buttons were to small, screen hard to read...etc. etc. These seemed like an interesting alternative. Mom couldn't be happier! The picture dual buttons seem a little gimmicky, but they really make using the phone much easier. Simply print some pictures of family, add a Name and insert them into the frames. Then just program the numbers/names and you're ready to go! It's a little annoying that the pictures aren't the same size, buts that's a pretty minor thing. One good tip, keep the names you program into the memory simple - once programmed the caller ID will say the name. User will here "Call from Bob" for example and they can easily decide if they want to answer or not. The accessory handset will have the same four numbers programmed as picture dial on the main phone. You can't dial any other numbers from the accessory handset, but you can answer any incoming calls. Yes, the handsets are both battery hogs, if you leave them off the charger overnight they will low the next morning. Just keep them in the charger and they will be ready when you need them. The voice caller ID is great, if you don't here someone you recognize, just don't answer. The speaker phone on the the base, main handset and accessory handset are all pretty good and the range is great. Overall a great choice for anyone who only needs a few programmed contacts, has trouble pushing little buttons and just wants something simple. The instructions are pretty well written and easy to follow. Definitely recommend!

I purchased the phone for my elderly mom who can’t hear well. This definitely is a big improvement over our last phone, it is very loud, she’s able to hear and carry on conversations. Cons: I just wish the phone was more smartly made. To review recent calls is complicated for elderly and doesn’t make sense why the phone was designed this way. The block button is located on the same button as the volume control, very dumb! The phone design is definitely flawed but my mom is able to hear and communicate better so we’ll keep it.

This phone should be 0 stars. Terrible. From day one there was static and then it stopped working. You not hear the other person when calling. Tried to reset, nothing. Tried to get support to no avail. Do not recommend.

The Ringer is loud enough for my 91 year old Mother to hear when she is not wearing her hearing aids. She also likes the larger display and the larger number buttons. She likes the answering machine and especially likes that she can listen to her messages from any of her handsets. The reception is perfect, no noise and even works well when she's outside. She refuses to own a cell phone, so she carries the handset with her all day and it will stay charged. She lives on her own and I am very grateful and proud of her.

Jan 2023. I have had the Vtech SN5127 for nearly two weeks and this is my initial take on it. My wife and I are in our 70s and our eyesight is not what it once was. I was looking for a home phone with a screen which would be easy to read. To this end, the phone meets the bill. The screen is big and bright making it nice and easy to read. Plus the fact that it announces who is calling is an add in my book. I can make the decision if I want to get off my seat to pick up the phone or not. The set up is simple with the exception of establishing your own phonebook which is a tedious task but a one time deal as long as you don’t make any typos. Much has been written about the difficulty it is to get to your phone book. While I agree it would have been much simpler to have a button to take you to it directly it is not all that challenging to get to it. Yes, you have to hit select and then stroll down three options to get to it but after a few times it becomes second nature. The four speed dial options are terrific although I can't see how you can get pictures that small to fit into the tiny spaces allotted for them. I simply typed up a sheet of paper with our children’s initials on it and used those instead. We added three handsets, SN5107, to the system, all with the large screen and placed them throughout our home. Very easy to set up. Overall, the large bright screen makes up for any other short falls the design might have.

j'aime savoir qui appelle avant de répondre, ma vue baisse et je vois moins les petits carractères, donc je voulais un téléphone qui me donne le nom de l'appelant, en FRANCAIS. avec des gros caractères sur l'afficheur. Malheureusement il donne les noms d'appelant juste en anglais, donc ça déforme tous les nom français :(. c'est très décevant pour moi, j'AIME beaucoup ce model VT série SN) j'aime les gros carractères, le son emplifier est super pour moi qui entend moins bien juste a cause de mes cheveux blanc :) . Sa couleur est parfaite je veut juste blanc, il se prend bien dans la main , ne glisse pas vu sa forme un peu plate. j'ai pas eu le temps dessayer tous les autres avantage vu que a ma grande déception j'ai du le retourner . j'avais réussi a mettre les instructions en français, mais il parle pas français :( :( Donc si ça ne vous dérange pas qu'il ne parle pas Fraçais , je vous le recommande fortement, pour les personnes qui aime bien entendre en parlant au téléphone ,avec un répondeur, 📱gros caractères, son idéal pour bien comprendre , je l'adore, je l'ai retourner avec regrès, Ont m'a remboursé tout de suite, j'ai pas eu de problème, je ne suis pas habituer a retourner des produits, Service parfait, retour sans problème et remboursement intégral, j'apprécie beaucoup.

Lo compré para mi mamá (adulto mayor) y le ha funcionado de maravilla. Tiene el teclado grande, audio graduable; incluso cuenta con un ecualizador para acentuar los graves y medios lo cual ayuda mucho para sus problemas de oído. La pila tiene buena duración. El altavoz de la base del auricular es muy útil para responder las llamadas en otra habitación. Estamos muy satisfechos con el aparato.

This system is good for everyone, even those who are not tech savy as once it's programmed, you can ignore all the bells and whistles and just use the SOS system and/or the handset & base like an ordinary cordless phone. I purchased this in conjunction with two SN7022 Pendants. It’s only been a day and hasn’t been in an actual use for an emergency but here are the highlights & pros: - Can pair multiple pendants to the phone. - When the pendant is triggered, the base will beep very loudly for 20 seconds so that you know you have triggered the SOS before it starts dialling your contacts. It’s actually quite alarming but good for the hard of hearing. - For accidental triggers, there’s a cancel button on the back of the pendant. - The pendant is big but light. - Can program up to 5 SOS contacts, the system will call in the order you have programmed it. - If the 1st contact doesn’t pick-up it will then dial the 2nd contact, if they don’t pick-up it will dial the 3rd contact and so forth. If it goes to voicemail, it will continue to dial the next contact as the receiver of the call must push a button on their phone to confirm receipt of the SOS. - When a contact receives a SOS call, it will start with an automated message saying that it’s an emergency and then prompt them to push a button. If they don’t push a button or hang up it will continue dialling the next contacts. You can customize the message. If the receiver has call display, it will only show your name as usual. - If your contact confirms the SOS call, the contact by default will be connected to the base speaker phone - handset can be used too. If the person in need cannot speak, the contact can still reassure them that they have received the call, that they’re on the way and the estimated time of arrival. The speaker phone is quite loud so if you’re in a single floor unit, you should be able to hear the speaker phone from any room. - Great system for those who may need somewhat urgent assistance but not full on emergency/ambulance services. - Since it’s a landline system, there are no additional subscription costs associated. This also means if the power goes out, the SOS system will continue to work (unlike other systems that rely on wifi). - This phone has many functions, there are many bells and whistles but you can ignore them. The handset can be used like a simple regular cordless phone, can program up to 4 speed dials (they are separate from the auto SOS calls). All you need to know are who’s numbers are saved to the speed dial buttons (we programmed the 4 speed dial buttons in birth order so it’s easy to remember.) - There are also 4 speed dial buttons on the base where you can attach a picture. The buttons are big and easy to push. - When dialling out, the phone will announce the number that was just pushed, could be handy for those who have impaired vision but it otherwise slows down dialling out. This will also happen for numbers saved in speed dial. Cons: - The pendant is only used to trigger the SOS, it cannot be used to communicate. - Had issues pairing the system together, especially the 2nd pendant but everything eventually worked. - No low battery indicator on the pendant. - It feels like cheap quality. I would not hesitate to buy this again for other family members, I would test the system maybe once a month to ensure it’s still working.

Excelente systema - mi pariente de edad avansada con un poco de sordera no podia oir con ningun telefono de la casa. Este telefono tiene una bocina muy fuerte que le ayuda a escuchar muy bien. Tambien el altavoz sirve muy bien para platicar sin tener que sostener el telefono en la mano. Tiene muchisimas caracteristicas como identificador de llamadas, directorio, buzon de voz, anuncio de llamadas, es expandible para añadir mas telefonos o productos vtech, etc. Tantas opciones confundieron a mi pariente, pero ya que le supo contestar le encato poder oir a la familia que le llamaba.

Me gusto mucho este artículo porque había comprado hace unos meses otro que no me sirvió de nada ( Motorola) ni se oía cuando timbraba, muy bajo el volumen, luego tampoco se oía en el auricular… compre este aparato y y resuelto el problema. Se oye muy bien cuando timbra y la voz en el auricular se oye perfecto. Excelente compra. Muy recomendado .
