E mporia Telecom produces special mobiles for senior citizens. “Easy calling” is the secret, as people aged over 50 are often overwhelmed by conventional mobile phones or don’t need their extensive functions. Are your fingers too large - or are the buttons too small? Are you hard of hearing - or is the loudspeaker too quiet? Are you too clumsy to navigate the menu - or is it just too complicated? Emporia knows how seniors struggle with using phones. "Customers should be offered information instead of multiple functions," says company founder Albert Fellner. "Quality and user-friendliness come first in everything we do." Large buttons, an easy-to-read display, a loudspeaker that is compatible with hearing aids and simple menu navigation.

Emporia mobile phone for senior citizens

The global technology leader's mobile phones for senior citizens are very different to standard devices. Components from industrial machinery control panels are used in the button design. The character height is ideal for the large display. To make understanding easier for the hearing impaired, Emporia Telecom is banking on special loudspeakers that have an unusually low resonance frequency for mobile phones. Feedback, whistling and general noise are greatly reduced. Senior citizens often get lost in the many menu levels of conventional mobiles. But with Emporia Telecom's mobile phones, software is replaced by hardware. With the "EmporiaLIFEplus" for instance, important menu functions can be accessed directly and automatically with buttons.
