The most user-friendly smartphone
User-friendly smartphones are in high demand. Often a crucial quality when choosing a new phone for children and elderly people.
A user-friendly cell phone is a phone which is easy to navigate and has an easy set-up for adjusting personal settings and features. User-friendly smartphones must all so allow easy use of camera and give intuitive access to Internet-based services.
Since 1999 I have tested and reviewed cell phones. The list below shows all smartphones on the market rated and ranged by degree of user-friendliness.
