Phone, older person, hearing accessible,

Jenny105 — Mon, 07 Apr 2025 16:43:03 GMT

Lost in whats available. Ive had a phablet for 7 yrs , this was knocked from my hand and died. Confused by the array

Im now looking for

a mobile phone : Android GS Certified, fairly simple to use for older person

wifi, blue tooth 4.2 (i believe) , for my hearing Myphonak app for the hearing aid requires - iOS 14

whats app. phone text , app use of course

camera (reasonable quality - but basic will do)maybe photo editor

no games, no film, no document use

My phablet was a Samsung A7 lite so maybe a Samsung but open to best sound quality available

Thanks

PS My sim card was saved but dont know if it works . A contract has never been our option before . I pay 7.88 a month , Is contract worth considering good?

Maybe just upgrade what you're used to @Jenny105 ?

Makes sense - bigger handbag needed, thats ok !! its 2inches larger than the A7.

Take a Sim card for phone.as its LTE?

Or buy a small phone to go with it. Ive thought of buying both, BUT the myphonak app is fussy about the specs as ggiven b4

@Jenny105

Yes, it will take a sim and the specs indicate that your app should work, however, as I'm not familiar with the app, you should check. Buying from Amazon gives you the option to return within 30 days if not.
