DORO 410 Reviews (Cell Phones & Smartphones)

The PhoneEasy 410 is the better of the two Doro phones being sold by Consumer Cellular, a low-cost wireless provider which uses AT&T's physical network. The 410 is a tri-band (850/1800/1900 MHz) clamshell phone, in black or white with green accents. At...

Excellent keys. Elegant design. Easy to use. Good voice quality. Affordable

Somewhat difficult to set up

The Doro PhoneEasy 410gsm is an excellent, affordable option for older folks and technophobes who want a simple voice phone, though they may need a more tech-savvy family member to help set it up.

Review of the Doro PhoneEasy 410gsm, an easy-to-use cell phone targeted to people that don't need or are afraid of cell phones with too many features.

Bright, clear display ; Good sound quality ; Large keys and text ; Bluetooth ; Good FM radio ; Good voice quality ; Hearing aid compatible ; Text messaging fairly easy ; Affordable ; Unlocked

No external display ; Only one emergency number ; Difficult to find without Consumer Cellular service

The Doro PhoneEasy 410gsm is a great basic mobile for the elderly and those who are less tech-inclined. But if you think this is as good as it gets, think again -- the Doro PhoneEasy 409gsm is simpler still.

Incredibly simple to use ; Great emergency features ; Hearing aid compatibility

Screen could be bigger ; Extra features may be unnecessary

We're fond of the Doro PhoneEasy 410gsm and its super-simple ethos. If you're after a really back-to-basics handset, though, the 409 is better still, offering the same emergency and hearing-aid-friendly features -- plus it's about £10 cheaper.

It will only appeal to the niche market its intended for due to its

It's certainly easy to use, and being able to receive MMS messages is a bonus

It’s a shame the design isn't a little more up to date

It will only appeal to the niche market its intended for due to its design and lack of features.

How many functions does your mobile phone offer you? Perhaps a more relevant question should be “How many of these functions do you actually make use of on a regular basis?” The difference between these two answers illustrates the gap between a...

The Doro PhoneEasy 410gsm is unlikely to appeal to the fashion conscious or those who can not survive without camera, music playing and Internet access but then it is not meant to be used by this type of user. However if you are looking for a basic...

The Doro 410 is a no-frills clamshell phone from the Swedish phone manufacturer you might not have heard of. It's available now at around £150 SIM free. We are all getting older, our eyesight starts to fail noticeable from around the age of 40 and lots...

The first thing that struck us was the clarity of the screen, and the addition of a radio and Bluetooth actually makes this a pretty well-featured phone for a phone that tries to be as simple and usable as possible. A clever feature of the phone is the...

First another in the range of Doro mobile phones for those less agile and or with disabilities. Second a DECT cordless phone suitable for anyone's home and it includes a built in answering machine for those times you are not there

This is almost like a normal mobile phone except it has the larger buttons and an easy to read display. It has Bluetooth and MMS and even a built in FM radio. It is a flip phone and when closed the black back makes it look like ant other phone. However...

Apart from mainstream wired phones for home and office, Doro also do DECT phones. Recently their mobile offerings are becoming widely accepted for those with disabilities, first however a seven button remote control.

How can a remote control with only seven buttons replace a remote control with forty or more buttons. In short it can’t but often the only controls required are volume up or down and channel up or down and this it can duplicate. Most remote control...

At a time when a great many cellphones are getting smaller, the Doro PhoneEasy 410gsm presses the, slightly larger, buttons and offers what a great many users -- especially the more mature -- want.

Doro is a Swedish manufacturer which, rather than directly competing with the better known names, carefully addresses niche markets. To that end, hearing aid compatibility, an emergency call facility, Bluetooth, two-way peakerphone and an FM radio are...
