The Samsung Jitterbug J may be the most well-known senior-friendly cell phone, but it is far from the only handset designed with the elderly in mind. The hallmark of a senior-friendly phone is one that is easy to use, with a bright legible display, an uncomplicated menu and feature set, and large keys. Several non-Jitterbug phones have met these criteria, like the Pantech Breeze, the Verizon Wireless Coupe, and the Clarity ClarityLife C900.

Now Consumer Cellular, an MVNO that also happens to be the exclusive wireless carrier for the AARP, has joined in the handset game.
