Who is Jethro?
We are a telecommunications company that designs cell phones tailored to seniors. When smartphones gained more popularity in the late 2000’s, we saw an increasing need for senior cell phones that were not being met in the industry. Ever since 2012, we have helped many seniors and their families stay connected. Our cell phones are loved by many due to their simple designs and quality. Our most recent model, the SC490 4G LTE cell phone continues to empower seniors. This modern bar style phone comes equipped with 4G LTE/VoLTE technology for the best coverage. Let’s take a closer look at all of its best features.
Jethro SC490 Best Features
Simple Design: Due to its simple menu, big screen and buttons, the SC490 has a lower learning curve for seniors than smartphones which can be intimidating for those new to the technology.
Easy to Charge: Charging can be difficult with smartphones. Cables tend to get misplaced and inserting the port everytime could damage the phone. The SC490 was designed to look like a cordless phone as it sits on a charging dock. This cableless way of charging is both easy and convenient for seniors.
Simple Menu: The menu on the SC490 is straightforward with only 9 main apps to reduce confusion. The menu also has 2 style options: a “Scroll Style” with big icons or a “Grid Style” that shows all the apps in one screen.
Emergency SOS Button: Seniors can have a sense of peace knowing that with a click of a big red button on the back they can call and text up to 5 emergency contacts immediately.
Speed Dial: This feature allows you to assign up to 8 contacts with a designated number for quick and convenient calling with a push of a button.
Hearing Aid Compatibility: The SC490 is equipped with cutting edge M4/T4 hearing aid compatibility. It also has bluetooth technology to pair your hearing aid.
Great Local Support: Aside from an awesome cell phone, getting the SC490 also means you get amazing local support with our helpful representatives ready to answer your questions or concerns.
