Big buttons. A simple display. Rounded corners. Yep, with a design like that, it's definitely for grandma. It's even named as such: 6380 Senior Mobile Phone.
Don't let its bland screen and simple design fool you, though, as it does have a few features that'll please more technically savvy elders. You've got a phone book, SMS messaging, calender, alarm clock and games inside, as well as a a built-in flashlight and an "SOS" button. The big, red panic button is located on the back of the phone and, once pressed, will dial a preset number and set off an alarm on the phone.
The big downside here is that the 6380 only works on GSM network GSM 900/1800 bands, meaning it's not for the US or Canada. The rest of the world can keep an eye out for it, though, for $75.

Right, because there aren't any GSM carriers in the US. Except for T-Mobile and AT&T. Perhaps, you meant just the 900/1800 GSM band?

My dad is 85, mom is 82. They both struggled with dimly lit screens and hard to manage small buttons on their old cell phones. Their solution - they both got iPhones and couldn't be happier!

This big button mobile is an ideal phone for people with sight problems. And also in the UK and Europe these phones come with Vodafone or O2 sim card as well.
