Review: Top notch feature phone. Easy to use. - Nice flip phone I keep as a backup to my main iPhone. Good clear sound and display. I have a couple of other feature phones and find this one easier to use in navigating the menus - all pretty logical as you have 4 way rocker with central OK action plus two flexible menu/action buttons either side. Takes nano-sim like my iPhone and memory card for extra storage of photos etc. Photo resolution ranges upto 1280x960 which is very good for a non smartphone. Also brightness, contrast, exposure-bias, multi-shot, white balance, self-timer. So way better than most feature phones. Coupled with it's three single button favourite phone contact and an emergency call button on the back, it could be the ideal older person's phone. No video option-just still photos which it does a good job of. It also has simple illuminated icons when phone closed to indicate a phone call, message, low battery. Oh battery lasts for days and usb-c charge port. Bluetooth and 3.5mm earphones support. Extras include an easy to use 4 function calculator with M+ M- +- etc. Good calendar with daily weekly monthly views. No games. Good/Bad it depends on you. In summary very good phone if you don't want a smartphone.
Review: Basic phone, pictures for contacts could be bigger. - Annoying sound on key press and when phone is switched on - no settings found to adjust. Picture against contact is actually quite small, elderly would find that difficult to see. Found phone is prone to slipping due to design.

Panasonic KX-TU550EXB 4G Essentials review. This phone does have various ring tones, the digits and contacts are clear and not tiny. You can turn off the start up music, simple to use and some of the other reviews must be in using different model.
