hi, i'm planning to get my grandmother a new hp. she's currently using a samsung flip hp but the buttons are so small which makes it hard for her to type text messages and make calls.

do you guys know any handphones with large n easy to see buttons and huge screen ? could be any brand but preferably Samsung.

and if possible i want the phone to be as basic as possible, no camera, but must have colored screen and easy to find smile.gif

haha i think thats way too fancy for her, not too mention expensive too sweat.gif

btw speaking of that i just realize that all touchscreen phones have huge screens n the buttons that appear inside the screen are quite large too

so i think i'm gonna buy her a touch screen phone, what is the most basic touch screen phone available ?
