[Blindtlk] Android Versions

Hi,

Anything from the Jelly Bean version on up is accessible and usable.  Each 
device operates a little differently, but the differences aren't glaring. 
Many people really like the Nexis devices.  My favorite is the Samsung 
Galaxy S5 devices, because they have an external battery, which is my 
preference.  The later Galaxy devices have internal batteries but again very 
accessible and have the physical home button.
Other devices have the stereo speakers, and many prefer those.  Other 
devices may have front-facing speakers, better cameras, and the LG make 
theirs with the power and volume buttons in the back.  I really like that 
feature.

Android has a setting you can check where the power button ends a call, and 
the Samsung devices have the setting where home button can be set to answer 
the call.

Among all these differences I can think of, Android is accessible.  I have 
the Galaxy S5 Mini, which is a small phone, and I like smaller rather than 
bigger.  Just my preference.

Have fun with all the choices, and know you will have great accessibility. 
My experience has been very satisfactory.  And now, you can activate out of 
the box from what I understand, at least, I have been able to without 
sighted assistance.  The eyes-free list is a great resource, and you 
subscribe by writing to
