Clarity Dect 6.0 Cordless Amplified Phone With Clarity Power and Call Waiting Caller ID (50603)

I have tried a lot of phones this year, including other phones by Clarity (older technologies) and one by GE. This is by far the best one that I have found. It is easy to use, light, is the latest technology, and is great for someone with mild to moderate hearing loss. Thus far, the phone has worked great and the price is reasonable. The sound quality is superb, very clear and the Dect 6.0 seems superior to older technologies.

I would definitely recommend this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product, clumsy for elderly to hold, December 8, 2009

I purchased this model for my elderly father who is confined to a chair and is legally blind. He, like many elderly folks, has hearing problems for which he refuses to obtain a hearing aid. This phone is a wonderful product for giving him clarity in his phone reception, just as its brand name implies. He also likes the large buttons, except for the ones near the top, which occasionally get pushed when he doesn't intentionaly push them. The phone is clumsy to hold in the hand. Otherwise, it is the best phone he has ever owned, and he loves it. The price is well worth paying, and Amazon's service and prompt shipping was better than any in-store experience, so convenient. I just used my credit card and had it shipped directly to his home. This would make an excellent Christmas gift for any elderly person you know.

2.0 out of 5 stars Clarity bundled with boost, February 15, 2010

The main problem with this phone is th clarity is bundled with the boost. I bought the phone for my great Aunt. She does not need the phone so loud (in loudness her hearing loss is only mild). Adding pressing the boost button (as ther is no way to leave it on) is an extra step for her which she forgets. She really needs the clarity feature and the phone on full volume would be loud enough. While the corded variety of this phone allows me to set the clarity apart from the boost (and leave it on at all times) the cordless variety lacks this feature. As a result, this phone ends up being useless, as I can either leave the volume to low for her to hear and hope she boosts the phone (which is a 50/50 chance) or put it on a loud volume and have it not be clear enough.

Other than that, my only complaint is this phone is not very intuitive to an elderly person who is used to corded phones, but I suspect this would be for any corded phone. The other issue is the top buttons are too easily press while the person is talking into the phone. All in all, while this cordless amplified phone got some of the best ratings of cordless amplified phones, I wish I had never bought it.
