Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Clarity Amplified Photo Phone (P300)
Customer Review: Good, but could be better
Summary: 3 Stars
This phone was purchased because my Mom lost her sight due to a stroke.
Considering the cost, this phone is a handy item. However since it is geared to someone with poor vision or needing easy number access its lacks in a few key areas.
Cons:
1. The top 9 buttons cannot easily be felt. It would be nice if there were definite edges to delineate where each button was, prior to pushing. It would be even better if each could have some characteristic feel as well, so the top right button could be distinguished from the middle right, without having to track down from the top.
2. The bottom numbered buttons would be nice if they had braille or bumps on them, so they can be dialed without being able to read the numbers.
3. Volume Sliders should be distinguishable from one another. The slider for the ringer and the phone volume feel the same. They can be only differentiated due to geography. The slider head should have a different shape.
4. Emergency button light is too small for a severely vision challenged person to see. It only tells the rest of us the phone is plugged in.
5. All memory is lost if the phone is unplugged, so I put not only the names on the top speed call buttons, but the numbers so reprogramming is easier. So far, I have had to reprogram this phone once due to moving it.
6. It has a cheap plastic feel to it, but considering the cost, this is okay.
Pros:
1. Most of the buttons have a definite click to them. This is great for a person that does not see well.
2. Big buttons means less mistakes
3. Amplify button, has a bump on it, handy to recognize and handy if the AC turns on, when on the phone. Nice that the amplification goes away with a hang up, so no one gets deafened.
All in all this phone does the job for my sight-challenged Mom. If she had the phone before the vision issues it would be easier to use, but like most users of this phone, she will probably not see it well ,the entire time she has used it.
It would be a great phone for an elderly person with poor sight, that can still make out numbers.
NOTE:
Since my Mom wears a wrist band for emergencies, I did not program her emergency button, to avoid accidental activation. Also I think if she thought she could get 911 by mistake, she would not use the phone.
