Works great!
I’ve only had this a couple of weeks, but so far all is good. The automated captions come through quickly and the volume on the phone is really good. The setup was easy. I like that it has a built-in answering machine. I was able to enter my contacts easily. The screen is large and bright. I’ve found it easy to use.I haven’t had a call yet from someone with an accent or difficult to understand so I’ll have to see how the captions perform when that happens.Overall, this was just what I needed to help make phone calls more pleasant, as my hearing loss, even with great hearing aids, often makes callers difficult to understand. Definitely recommend this.

Money Well Spent
Lately, mom’s been having more frustration hearing me on the phone. I thought something was wrong with her phone, but no. And her hearing aids were checked. And accents had always challenged her in phone messages.CapTel to the rescue. After reading stories of so many folks in my shoes, we thought it was time to try captions. Great instruction book that even she can understand. Quick set up. Put in all her contacts and she began practicing making and receiving calls. She is comfortable now and really likes not having to ask to, “please repeat that.” She has a landline jack and ethernet we could connect to. The only negative is she has a new location to answer the phone, in her den, not the kitchen bar. But she is ok with that. As an active 95 yr old, she is happy to leave phone frustration behind.My husband has hearing loss and even with his aids, he struggles sometimes with phones. He wants this at our house, but at this time, I am delaying. We would have to get phone service and wire the house. Have to check into that. But I see it in the future. Great product, don’t hesitate!

Easy FCC registration and setup
Pro: Phone cord, Ethernet cord, etc included. Setup and FCC registration was simple. Touch screen works great. Auto-caption is nearly instant with “live operator assist” option tuned off. Works great in existing MagicJack environment (VOIP) as an extension line. Honestly, it’s so much nicer than I expected.Con: There aren’t any con’s however I wish it was available in a lighter color or even white. It’s midnight black which we all know attracts dust. Otherwise I’m a very satisfied new customer.

Easy setup
So I have never wrote a product review before but I was so impressed with this telephone that I had to say something. I got this for my dad who is 90 years old even though he has hearing aids he has a hard time hearing on the regular telephone and trying to pull up his contacts or add contacts that was almost impossible. So I took a chance bought this phone and let me say it was the easiest thing to set up it was set up within 5-10 minutes and not only that but my dad can add his own contacts and the speaker works great on it he can hear real well and when they type out the message it’s almost exactly on point. The best thing about it though is that he can hear the other person on the other line with such Clarity that he doesn’t even really need to use the written words as much. I already give this a thumbs up with a rating of five. Once again this is the best investment I have ever gotten for my dad and the ease of setting it up and him being able to understand how to use it is very impressive I recommend this to anybody that has any kind of hearing impairment because it really is true to what it says.

EASY FOR AN 92yr old
Thank god!! I bought this for my 92yr old who is dead and doesnât have the best vision. Super easy to install for anyone who isnât tech savvy. The phone reads out everything said on the other end of the line in words onto the screen. The read out is very accurate and keeps up super well. The print and button size is perfect. She doesnât use battery life just plugged into the wall. Easy to control the volume. My 92yr old aunt can use this phone with no issues mind you she can barely work a tv remote. Such a good value for the money.

WORKS BUT QUIRKY
For an elderly parent it is needed, the volume is definitely louder on the handset as well as the speaker. The text display overall is decent but does throw some weird words in the transcripts occasionally. The bad is it will get disconnected and not work, then you have to go thru a setup config again which is a hassle. I’ve nearly sent it back twice already but hold out since it is helping somewhat.

Easy to set up
My 87-year-old mother can use the phone easy to set up. Use the phone number on the phone to set it up. Do not try to set it up by yourself.

This is a wonderful phone and the sound is perfect. I do have to return it however because the caption does not work in Canada.

This product cannot be used in Canada. I was not told this when I bought it in November for Christmas for my deaf Mother-in-Law. It works off the internet which was another thing we were not told. So we made an appointment for someone to come out to set it up. So I had to miss work, pay for internet connection only to find out that it can’t be used in Canada. I have sent at least 7 messages to the company and Amazon. To date I have not gotten a reply on how to return it. Every answer says they are looking into it. It’s April now and still no reply on how to send it back. If you live in Canada DON’T BUY IT!!!D. Stewart
