The Emporia Life handset was seen way back at CeBIT and we can say that this mobile phone will be loved by the older generation or even those who love simplicity.

This phone is GSM 900/1800 or GSM 850/1900 dualband which basically means it cannot be for the US market. The phone has a massive display which is easy to read and the numbers are super sized which is pretty cool, normally when making phones for simplicity the whole design goes out of the window, but we say not in this case as it looks ok.
