Hi, I'm looking for advise on a good quality basic mobile for my parents, it needs big buttons and must be able to store a few text messages as my dad likes to keep joke texts.

It doesnt need a camera, just phone calls and text.

Anything you can advise would be appreciated.

Thanks

Great thing about this is it has a "help" button, which when pressed will send a custom "Help Me" text to upto 4 people and will call the first person in the list (handy if person isn't fully with it after a fall).

I've brought one for an elderly relative and it is so easy to use.
