The emporia AMPLi40 is an excellent value-for-money telephone for anybody with sight loss. The receiver volume can be increased up to 40dB through a boost button and variable volume control. This will help improve the volume of telephone conversations however this phone does not have a tone control so it is not a recommended choice for someone with hearing loss as without a tone control, the clarity cannot be adjusted. It has a loud ringer volume (up to 85dB) and large visual ring indicator light, to alert you when the phone rings. The receiver is also HAC – Hearing Aid Compatible.
With extra-large buttons and high contrast, the AMPLi40 is also ideal for those with visual impairments, making the numbers easier to read and the keys easier to see. This larger size is also suitable for anybody with reduced dexterity as they are easier to manage than smaller, traditional dialing buttons.
The AMPLi40 is a practical solution for anybody suffering from memory loss and includes 7 one-touch memories, 3 of these have the option to add a photo and one highlighted as SOS for a nominated emergency contact.
The Emporia AMPLi40 Big Button Amplified Corded phone is of course easy to use. It is also exceptionally easy to connect and manage. It does not require a power cable or batteries to work. Simply connect it to your telephone socket and away you go.
In the opinion of one evaluation panel, this phone is excellent value for money. The buttons are very large and clear and the amplification is good, however due to the lack of a tone control they do not recommend this phone for use by people with hearing loss. It is a good choice for people with dementia or visual impairment.
