Lifesaving handset
Emporia LIFEplus mobile phone | by Monticelli
Although
the Emporia
LIFEplus mobile phone cannot be used to surf the net and
play games on, it does possess its own unique wow factor. Its unique
selling point is an easy-to-find dedicated panic button on the back.
Boasting
this red button which, once pressed, rings a pre-selected number to
deliver a distress signal.
But
if no-one answers, the phone will
automatically dial in sequence the next number on the owner's
designated list of up to five numbers. However, 112 - the world's
emergency number - is preset should the owner not have programmed the
panic button numbers.
Following the successful launch of
other handsets from the Austrian manufacturers, the LIFEplus is the
latest product blending lifestyle practicality with a fashionable look.
Essentially, Emporia's phones target elderly users and those who have
hearing and/or sight difficulties.
With quick access
shortcut buttons and excellent supporting features, this personal
safety dedicated handset is equipped with large fonts on a huge
monochrome LCD orange-lit display specifically adapted for a highly
visible screen. The signature big buttons also make it very easy to
dial numbers and write texts.
This
modern mobile is the perfect accessory for its particular target
audience, which allows users to keep in touch with family and friends,
have access to a variety of emergency functions, set a personal alarm
clock and even use the flashlight as a torch.
Now the
elderly, or those who have difficulty with modern technology on smaller
phone models, have the opportunity to move into the mobile market in
style with the LIFEplus phone. This is the smallest, lightest,
trendiest and easily the best looking of Emporia's stable of innovate
handsets.
On first sight of this specialist mobile, and
after handling its bulky metal casing, you get the impression that you
own a retro phone. When you explore the smooth feel of the LIFEplus,
the functions initially seem limited to just telephone calls and text
messages. But delve a bit further and there are plenty of outstanding
extras, many controlled by the switches and slides on the sides.
There
is the facility to set a very loud ring volume and a super-powerful
vibration function, suitable for those who require such functions
including those with digital hearing aids.
But the personal emergency call feature has to be the killer factor
that sets this chic handset apart from its rivals.
Created
specifically for easy management, there are even futuristic-style
visual alerts for incoming calls that are indicated by a green flashing
LED.
But
this sleek mobile is not compact and pocket-sized. The handset boasts a
highly fashionable slider function that extends to 175mm from the
closed size of 118mm. However, you do not have to slide open the
handset each time you make calls, as it is possible to programme the
buttons for numbers called most often.
On the plus side,
by weighing a massive 138g means that this particular phone will be
difficult to misplace around the house or office, making this handset a
perfect portable emergency alarm. This latest offering from Emporia
gives the target audience exactly the kind the cutting edge technology
that is individually important to them offers it as a simple-to-use
phone and with metal housing completes a chic elegance.
