Swissvoice is a brand well known to us. A few months ago we had the opportunity to test some of their devices, such as the  Swissvoice 2155  or the  Swissvoice S28 . Today we return to the load with a very interesting novelty from this company, the  Swissvoice C50s , a smartphone for the elderly that has conquered us at first glance thanks to its beautiful design, its incredible ease of use and the possibilities it offers to this long-forgotten audience .

Our elders also want a smartphone, even if they don’t know it. Perhaps not a smartphone like the one we use, since, in most cases, its skill with new technologies does not play in its favor. However, if you ask them if they want to receive photos of their grandchildren, listen to the radio or take a photograph of themselves, their recipes or the landscapes they see on their excursions, they will surely say yes. Therefore, we are sure that if you give them this Swissvoice phone they will surely enjoy it a lot.

Swissvoice C50s design: Swissvoice C50s, this is the simplest smartphone for seniors

With dimensions of 143 x 73 x 10 mm, the Swissvoice C50s is a 5-inch model  with 720 x 1280 px resolution, where what has been most taken care of is that the interface is large, intuitive and attractive to the public. older. It also works with long keystrokes to avoid accidental touches.

But what stands out the most in its design is the inclusion of a  base , which serves both as a charging base (so it will remind them of the fixed classics of a lifetime and they will not forget to charge the battery), as well as a charging center. added functions. From the base they can listen to hands-free conversations, answer calls, make video calls, watch videos and even listen to the radio. It equips a high definition speaker so that the sound is heard very loud and clear and it also has an SOS button, something that we already know is super important when it comes to elderly people.

It is available in  black with red details .

What can you do with this smartphone for the elderly?

Being focused on a larger audience, a priori somewhat reluctant to new technologies, the Swissvoice C50s has a super simple menu. At the top will appear three photos, which are actually speed dial for your favorite contacts, and then a menu with four buttons: calls, messages, photos and more.

In the More section is where you can access the camera (which has 8 MP), reminder apps for taking medications, time, FM radio … It also has Facebook, WhatsApp, YouTube and Internet browsing , among others.

As for the sound, you should not worry, since it has extra high levels so that they can be heard well if they have hearing problems. Ringtones exceed 85 dB and volume passes 35 dB. In addition, in this sense it is very important to highlight the fact that the Swissvoice C50s is compatible with hearing aids (M4 / T4) . You can also put vibration.

Although its technical specifications are in the background in this type of device and its functionality prevails, we do not want to fail to mention some touches of its hardware. This model has  1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage expandable via microSD up to 64 GB,  micro USB port, 3.5 mm jack port,  Bluetooth 4.0, 4G connectivity and dual SIM. Finally, it should be noted that its battery is  3,200 mAh , which offers a standby autonomy of up to 210 hours, although, as we have mentioned, the ideal is to keep it as long as possible in the charging base, so they have it always in sight, loaded and there is no possibility of loss.

Lastly, we want to highlight the SOS button. It is located on the back of the phone and on the base. Its operation is very simple. Up to five numbers can be pre-registered and, if the owner presses it, a distress call will be made and an SMS will be sent with the location of the mobile to these five people. Something that, without a doubt, will give you a lot of peace of mind knowing that it will always be reachable with a simple touch of this button so visible and easily accessible.
