The Consumer Electronics Show or CES 201o is currently going on and this international event has featured a familiar mobile phone for seniors.The Samsung A310 or Jitterbug J was released last year and a new version has been showcased at Las Vegas.
The Jitterbug J in Red was launched “in support of the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women movement” and is part of a health and wellness initiative which encourages women to “speak up” against heart diseases.
If the Jitterbug J cell phone for senior
sales reach expectation then Samsung and Jitterbug will donate up to $500,000 to the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women movement. I have to say that this is a good cause.What are the new features offered by this mobile phone for seniors? Well, this version offers health and wellness apps and services, including Jitterbug’s 24-hour LiveNurse service, and a “Daily Health Tips” application.
Of course, this handset for the elderly come with the familiar senior friendly specs and features like: a large keypad, Bluetooth, a large 2.1 inch display with 176 x 220 pixels, and a 1.07 inches external screen.
The Jitterbug J in Red cell phone for seniors will be available starting this month.
