The Emporia SMART.5 is a hearing aid compatible, Android 4G Smartphone that is uniquely designed to be easy to use by older generations who want to take a step towards interacting with modern technology.
It is supplied with a unique 135 page training book that clearly outlines everything you need to know with regards to using a smartphone, with fantastic FAQ's and hints and tips to help you become really confident with the technology. This is an excellent introduction to smartphones, apps and how to use them.
The emporia Smartcover (included) is a unique accessory. The protective case opens like a book and its front is equipped with four buttons that can each be assigned a different function. This means the functions you have selected for these buttons can be used even when the cover is closed. Even better, these buttons cannot be pressed accidentally and cause you to make 'pocket calls', because they'll only respond to the capacitive voltage of your skin.
The Smart.5 is also supplied with a charging cradle which is great for people who struggle to plug in charging cables. It is easy to slot the phone onto the cradle and if you're using the Smartcover, this can be left in place.

In the opinion of our evaluation panel, this is a well designed
and easy to use smartphone. The Training Book is excellent and a
unique feature for the Emporia smartphones. It's a comprehensive
introduction and explanation guide to the world of smartphones. It
has the usual features you'd expect on a smartphone: front and back
cameras, Bluetooth, access to apps - with added features such as
large text and a simple user-interface. The smartcover is a very
clever idea and will be really useful for people who are new to
using a touch-screen phone - it can also be kept on when using the
charging cradle which is great. A recommended choice.
