OTS - What seniors want: State of the art, but super-simple
2020. March 04. 10:00
Linz, 4 March, 2020 (APA/OTS) - emporia Telecom, the technology
leader for easy-to-use smartphones and key cell phones especially
for the elderly, presents four new 4G devices that unite one thing:
they are technically cutting-edge as well as super easy to use.
"We put ease of use first, because that's what senior citizens
want," says Eveline Pupeter, 100% owner and Managing Director of
the Austrian company emporia Telecom.
Studies commissioned by emporia have shown that older people
want to be self-determined in life - and this includes
independently using the latest means of communication. "Seniors
don't want to ask their grandchild how to send a photo via WhatsApp
or SMS; they simply want to do it," explains Pupeter.
emporia Telecom has always focused on ease of use. This path
will not be abandoned, even if the inner workings of the latest
devices could do much more than they show on the outside.
emporia Telecom is presenting two 4G VoLTE key cell phones
(emporiaACTIVE and emporiaACTIVEglam, with a flap) running the
AndroidGo operating system. Essentially, these two key cell phones
have what it takes to be a smartphone. "But there are still
millions of people who type and don't want to swipe, so we're
staying true to our line and continuing to offer the popular key
cell phones in addition to the smartphone," explains Pupeter.
Both feature phones have extra-large, illuminated keys with an
excellent pressure point, large displays with easy to read text and
pleasant contrasts. They are hearing aid-compatible and equipped
with an emergency call function, a camera and an alarm clock.
The emporiaTOUCHsmart is a successful mix of smartphone and key
cell phone. The smartest clamshell phone on the market has a
touchscreen in the upper part, keys in the lower part and also
scores with a dedicated WhatsApp button for direct access to the
popular messaging app. The emporiaTOUCHsmart also has an emergency
call function, camera, radio and torch, and is dust and
splash-proof thanks to its nano-coating (IP54).
The mobile phone experts from Austria are also presenting the
latest generation of smartphones for the elderly. While the
international trend is towards ever larger (and therefore
increasingly unwieldy) sizes, the people from Linz are switching
down a size. The emporiaSMART.3mini was developed at the special
request of men who no longer want large smartphones bulging in
their jackets and trouser pockets.
The emporiaSMART.3mini is an easy-to-use smartphone that is
smaller than standard models, but still fulfils all the
requirements placed on a smartphone: chic, completely intelligent
and technically state of the art. It offers all the common
features, such as two cameras, a strong battery, WiFi, Bluetooth,
GPS etc. The 4.95-inch touchscreen is still large enough to be
easily read and used. The additional advantages: a simple
interface, dust and splash-proofing (IP54), hearing
aid-compatibility, acoustic amplification, an emergency call button
and a training manual.
