The flip3 is a horrible phone. It’s advertised to block spam calls and in the first 7 hours I got 21 spam calls. And yes it was set up correctly. I bought the phone for my blind sister to find out the flip 3 didn’t even match the abilities of the flip 2. For example - you can set it up so you can speak to the phone to make a call upon opening but the confirmation is written not spoken. So a blind person has no way of knowing if the phone understood the command (the first flip3 that was bought kept misjudging the command and calling 9-1-1- not good). There’s also no way to keep the speakerphone on and it doesn’t announce calls so you’re inundated with spam.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Jitterbug Flip3 cell phone is very best phone for seniors, in my opinion. My husband has the Flip2 phone which is also very good, but I believe the Flip3 phone has it beat, because of the improvements that have been made. I recommend it!
