THE GOOD
The Jitterbug OneTouch is very easy to use. Its display has large fonts, its buttons are big and easy to press, and contacts can be pre-installed into the phone. It comes with an operator service that guides users through the calling process. It rests comfortably against the ear and the sound quality is great.

THE BAD
The Jitterbug OneTouch is a little on the bulky side. The volume rocker is in an awkward position. It also doesn't have a numerical keypad, so this may not be the right choice for seniors who want more flexibility in their phones.

THE BOTTOM LINE
The Jitterbug OneTouch is a simple, easy-to-use phone that's ideal for senior citizens who want to stay in touch with loved ones.
