Overview
The Jitterbug5 Cell Phone from GreatCall is an easy-to-use, flip-style phone designed for senior citizens and people with special needs. A backlit keypad features large buttons that you can physically feel rather than having everything on the screen.

A powerful speaker makes it easy to hear by delivering a loud, clear sound, and also includes a speakerphone so that you can talk hands free.
Features
Perhaps the greatest feature of the Jitterbug5 is the 5Star Service that's included with the GreatCall GoPlan. With this service you can use the 5Star button that is included on the phone to immediately get in touch with an NAED Certified 5Star Agent who will assist you. This can be used in an emergency, or at any time you feel that you are in an unsafe or uncertain situation. You will also have unlimited access to registered nurses and board-certified doctors who can give you advice, and even diagnose some illnesses over the phone and prescribe medications 24 hours a day 7 days a week!
Additional Information

It's exactly what I wanted
I didn't want one of those expensive phones that everyone's been trying to talk me into. All I wanted was a simple flip phone like I have had for the past 10-15 years. Now that I'm older, I figured that the emergency services offered with a Jitterbug would be a good idea.
Once the phone arrived, I took it to the Verizon store and got it on my existing plan. The phone works great, the service is wonderful and I'm using it daily without any problems.
Well... the 5 Star Response works
Accidentally pushed the 5 star button without knowing it, and seconds later it was ringing. 5 Star was calling to make sure I was okay! Good to know that it works so well!
Other than that, the phone is not a feature phone. There's not many fancy features on it, but that's exactly what I wanted.
The battery life has lasted me forever. The screen is clear as day and easy to read. The volume is excellent and call quality is top notch.
VERY GOOD PHONE FOR THE MONEY
Bought it for Grandpa
Bought this for my Grandpa for his birthday. I though it would be a great gift, as he was talking about getting a phone for emergencies. I was kind of confused about the service and I guess should've researched it a little more prior to purchasing the phone online. We're paying $49 per month for something that's rarely used and I don't know that we'll keep it. I thought this was more of a "pay as you go" type phone where we could just add money to it when necessary. I didn't know it was a no-contract, but pay monthly plan.
