[Electronics-Talk] Accessible Phones?

[David Diamond]

The thing is though, not everyone stays at home. If one leaves their home, they can't take their computer with them, well, if it is a lap top they can. I know some that don't pay for WIFI, they just hang out at hot spots, coffee shops, library's etc.  That of course was pre-COVID 19. I digress though.  It boils down to this, you cut your cloth to fit your pattern.

I have a life, but it surely is not on my phone.  32 g storage seems like a lot to me.  I use my computer, and external drives.  Pam.

An agency for the blind had something where they would give you a free cellphone.  Only problem was, the ones they gave out were the 6, beyond updating and had 32 g storage. Not bad if you don't have a life and basically just need a phone.  Useless for most.

If you're on SSI, you qualify for a free cell phone. I'll send you a review 
of the MiniVision 2 in another e-mail.

Hi, Jen:

Is the MiniVision 2 an Android? Does it contain all of the other features of 
an iPhone or Android? Generally how much does it cost, and where can it be 
purchased?  Thanks much, Jen!
Susan

The MiniVision 2 cell phone, which I'm thinking of getting, has real buttons 
and is accessible.

I know this topic has come up here before, but a friend of mine has an old 
push button phone that their carrier won't support any more.  What is the 
newest one of these phones, and who sells it?

Thanks in advance.  I know this topic was a long thread on the list, so if 
you want to write privately, my email is:

don.moore48 at reagan.com

Thanks so much!
