I've had this phone for about four years and LOVE it! The large font and loud speaker and earphone are SO helpful for us old folks. And the buttons are very easy to read and light up too. The phone is small, light, and thin - perfect for wearing on a neck lanyard. The back cover does come off too easily (I lost mine), but for $5 to $8 on Ebay you can get terrific snap-on covers that work beautifully. I've never found any other phone to touch the Vero except for three phones that are essentially clones of this phone and differ mostly cosmetically. These are the Sanyo Mirro (also out of production and on Sprint) and the NEW Kyocera Coast (on Boost) and the Kyocera Kona (on Virgin). BTW, Kyocera owns Sanyo. The latter two are all but identical and do have an improved camera of 2mp instead of the 1.3mp on the Vero and Mirro. They also have lanyard holes on the BOTTOM of the phone where they belong (Vero's are on top). Neck lanyards, btw, are THE best way to prevent lost or dropped phones ... mine is ALWAYS around my neck when I go out and has NEVER been dropped or lost or stolen. Best news of all: the Vero and Mirro may now be used on TING, a new provider using the Sprint network along with FREE roaming on the whole Verizon network, with pricing MUCH lower than Sprint's and NO contract. Check out Ting.com for a really nice surprise. The Kona and Coast are not yet on the Ting system, but here's hoping. Why? Because they sell NEW on Amazon for $15 to $18 right now, the bargain of the century! This is great stuff, folks!Read full review
This phone is the poster child for simplicity at its best! I am very impressed with the features that this simple phone does offer. I really like the way they designed the screens for the different functions. Very colorful and the sounds it makes are a lot of fun. The phone call function of the phone is clean and easy to hear. People say the sound quality they hear from the phone is very good. Nice size and brightly lit key pad is a nice addition to the phones overall user friendly layout. Easy to set up, easy to understand and even easier to use.
Bought this phone for my husband. He is not a smart phone man. This phone is light weight and has the features of the new and old. The screen in bigger than most flips. The key pad is larger than most also and he loves that. Very easy to use. I have no complaints about this phone. Very nice.
I bought this phone to replace the one my husband had left in his pants and ran through the washer. He didn't want a smart phone. All he wanted was something to make and receive call on. You can take pictures and send texts with this phone, but that is not what he wanted to do. It works fine for what he wanted.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I've had one before and it's a good phone. I don't need or want an internet BS phone. This one has a good battery life and the screen is large enough for my old self. It was a very good buy to replace the Sanyo Vero I got wet. The ESN was clear and it was pretty much lightly used. I took a chance with these guys and they delivered.
