Samsung Jitterbug phones were specifically marketed to seniors, offering a simple phone to operate. However, no thanks to a potential glitch where they may fail to connect to 911 services, Samsung has issued a voluntary recall for the said jitterbug phones.

Samsung may have developed a simple and easy to use phone for seniors but if this important aspect of the actual phone’s use is not addressed, they are practically useless. When it comes to seniors, ease of use is important. They are not too pleased nor impressed with the various technological enhancements we see today.

Hence, the one most important option that is important for any phone should be its main feature. Without it, elders don’t even need to carry a mobile phone. Well, you can at least credit Samsung for making the recall rather than allowing the market to find out first for themselves.
