“My hearing is fine!” says Rolf Hepp, the former dancer, choreographer and ballet director who recently celebrated his 80th birthday. “Others might disagree, of course.” he admits with a chuckle. Good hearing or not, Rolf has quickly become a fan of his new Doro slider phone that combines a big display with a slide out keypad and loud sound.

“I text a lot, especially with my daughter. With this phone it is so much easier to read what I’m writing than with the phones I’ve had before. The characters are really sharp, and I like how big and well lit they show up on the screen. The last time I was at the theatre a woman asked me, ‘What phone is that?’ I showed it to her, and she said, ‘Oh, those are really big numbers!’”
