I found the best smartphone for senior citizens. The best solution for the elders in your life making the s switch to a smartphone is an unlikely combination of Android-based device and a purpose-built home screen launcher. The full article comparing [5 Best Launchers Every Digital Minimalist Will Love](https://dataoverhaulers.com/best-minimalist-android-launchers) is at DataOverhaulers.com. # Intro What's the best smartphone for senior citizens or the elders in your life? The answer might surprise you. Hello fellow Data Overhaulers. Thank you for joining me as we break down every-day tech and help you get control of your online data. This video is part of a multi-part series of reviews where we're taking a look at alternative Android launchers or home screens **for** digital minimalists and those who want to take back their privacy. Before I jump into this review of Bald Phone, let me tell you a story. Recently my parents asked which smartphone should they buy. Truth is I had no idea at the time. I did a lot of research and found some purpose-built devices designed specifically for senior citizens and others that had really good user experiences but would break the bank. I finally came to the conclusion that there's not one particular smartphone that fits every senior citizens needs. The best smartphone is one that balances availability, being budget friendly and can be modified to fit the needs of your loved one. Android-based smartphones fit the bill. I took my parents to a local mobile phone retailer to find a smartphone that fits their liking. I showed them devices with good build quality so it will be durable in case of a drop. They held a few to make sure it felt nice in their hand. Remember it shouldn't be too large where it can't be operated except with two hands and it shouldn't be too small where the screen contents are hard to read. Double check the quality of the display is bright and easily visible. Once we purchased their phone it was time to modify it so it worked well for their needs. I'll do a separate video on installing it but let's take a look BaldPhone. # Outro BaldPhone is exactly the right way to make any Android smartphone the best smartphone for senior citizens.
