GreatCall's Touch3 Android Smartphone Allows Seniors to Connect

GreatCall, Inc. is a leader in empowering active seniors by teaming them up with technology that they can actually use.  Older consumers still want their independence and to use a smartphone, but they can be an intimidated by the endless display of screen after screen when all they want is something simple – in and out.  GreatCall’s new Touch3 Samsung smartphone eliminates those fears and makes it easy to access the things that are important to them.  They can still call their friends and family, text and email, but it also gives them access to pre-loaded health and safety software, including GreatCall’s exclusive 5Star service.

The phone itself is a perfect size with a 4-inch display and with measurements of only 4.76 x 2.47 x 0.42 inches and weighing only 4.16 ounces, it is the perfect size for an adult to easily handle.  With 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory (expandable), you will have the power and storage you need for those pictures of the grandkids you can take with the 5.0MP camera with autofocus and a VGA front-facing camera (FFC).

GreatCall lists the Touch3 Key Features as: Simple log-in, easy as one, two, three – Intuitive user interface and navigation – Top of the line in speed & storage – Contacts and apps in single scrolling list with large, legible letters – Hearing aid compatible – 24/7 best in class customer service – Simple and affordable data, talk and text plans – only pay for what you need and no contracts – Preloaded health & safety applications: 5Star – MedCoach – and Urgent Care – Compatible with GreatCall Link.

The Touch3 is reasonably priced at $169.99 plus a $20.00 introductory discount.  Data plans start at only $2.49 a month for 20MB – this allows customers to purchase only the level of data they need.  Depending on your lifestyle, you might not need very much data, but others may need to pay for extra data.  They have plans to suit any budget and lifestyle.  Their Basic Plans start at $14.99 a month for 50 minutes of talk time.  The value-priced GoPlans begin at $24.99 for 50 minutes of talk time plus health and safety services.  To purchase the Touch3 you can go to www.greatcall.com or pick one up in retail locations across the nation. Many national retailers are selling the Touch3 – Best Buy, Walmart, Sears, RadioShack, Frye Electronics and more. For a list of all retail locations, visit: http://www.greatcall.com/StoreLocator/.
