A Hamilton CapTel captioned phone works just like a standard phone – when it rings, you answer it. lf you need to make a call, you simply dial the number – and with this phone, you see captions of what’s being said in large, easy-to-read print on an integrated screen. The captioning service is provided at no-cost to people with hearing loss and is available ONLY in the U.S. 24/7/365.
Users can choose their preferred captioning method – Auto Captions (Captions are entirely computer-generated – there is no operator on the call) vs. Assisted Captions (An operator facilitates captioning, making corrections and providing call details).

Records and transcribes answering machine messages too!
I have worked in telecommunications for over 40 years, so I know a bit about phones. I did not have too high of expectations of this device when I purchased it for my mom, however, this piece of equipment really impressed me.The set up was quite simple for anyone who has ever connected something to a wired or wireless network. On bootup, the large color touchscreen directs you through a simple set up wizard and we had the thing up and running in a few minutes. It was a bit cumbersome using the somewhat sluggish built in touchscreen keyboard to do the online registration, but we only had to deal with that the one time.The transcription works quite well, and the amplification on the handset can be set crazy high. The most surprising delight was when I discovered that this phone has a built-in answering machine. Not only was my mom able to retire her old answering machine, which she was unable to hear very well, but at the press of a button this amazing phone will transcribe the recorded message as well! It also very clearly displays all of the information about the call with the time date, caller ID caller name displayed clearly on the large color display.I did have to go into the settings and enable the phone to remember it’s last volume settings so that she did not have to continue raising the volume for every call.All in all, it’s probably the best $75 dollars I’ve ever spent.

Works great!
I’ve only had this a couple of weeks, but so far all is good. The automated captions come through quickly and the volume on the phone is really good. The setup was easy. I like that it has a built-in answering machine. I was able to enter my contacts easily. The screen is large and bright. I’ve found it easy to use.I haven’t had a call yet from someone with an accent or difficult to understand so I’ll have to see how the captions perform when that happens.Overall, this was just what I needed to help make phone calls more pleasant, as my hearing loss, even with great hearing aids, often makes callers difficult to understand. Definitely recommend this.

Money Well Spent
Lately, mom’s been having more frustration hearing me on the phone. I thought something was wrong with her phone, but no. And her hearing aids were checked. And accents had always challenged her in phone messages.CapTel to the rescue. After reading stories of so many folks in my shoes, we thought it was time to try captions. Great instruction book that even she can understand. Quick set up. Put in all her contacts and she began practicing making and receiving calls. She is comfortable now and really likes not having to ask to, “please repeat that.” She has a landline jack and ethernet we could connect to. The only negative is she has a new location to answer the phone, in her den, not the kitchen bar. But she is ok with that. As an active 95 yr old, she is happy to leave phone frustration behind.My husband has hearing loss and even with his aids, he struggles sometimes with phones. He wants this at our house, but at this time, I am delaying. We would have to get phone service and wire the house. Have to check into that. But I see it in the future. Great product, don’t hesitate!

Me and My Aunt can finally have a conversation
This mobile device is exceptional, precisely what my Aunt, who suffers from significant hearing impairment, required. The setup was swift and straightforward. I appreciate the inclusion of all necessary components, including ethernet and telephone cable, which simplifies the process. By simply registering the information and establishing Wi-Fi connectivity, she is now able to engage in conversations that were previously unattainable. This is a substantial improvement in her communication capabilities.

Cannot get to work but the phone assembly is nice and what I wanted – also – not sure how much of the problem is with XFINITY/Comcast whose internet and phone service i have. But at age 80 I am exhausted trying to call them then when you get an answer the menus are useless to the problem so I sit here looking at a dead phone and getting no where and it is impossible to find a human to help although the agents in the Philippines are very nice and do things but in reality nothing happens back here at Lake Frederick – this is so frustrating and now painful to this disabled Marine who has reached his limit and throwing money at XFINITY is such a waste I am sick of it.

WORKS BUT QUIRKY
For an elderly parent it is needed, the volume is definitely louder on the handset as well as the speaker. The text display overall is decent but does throw some weird words in the transcripts occasionally. The bad is it will get disconnected and not work, then you have to go thru a setup config again which is a hassle. I’ve nearly sent it back twice already but hold out since it is helping somewhat.

For people who don’t hear so well, this is a wonderful telephone.
The captioning is a must for me, because women’s voices are hard to understand over a regular phone. The phone, itself, is so much clearer than any other we have tried. It has many features and settings, including a button to call customer assistance. It is wonderful to be able to chat with friends and family, again!

This is a wonderful phone and the sound is perfect. I do have to return it however because the caption does not work in Canada.

This product cannot be used in Canada. I was not told this when I bought it in November for Christmas for my deaf Mother-in-Law. It works off the internet which was another thing we were not told. So we made an appointment for someone to come out to set it up. So I had to miss work, pay for internet connection only to find out that it can’t be used in Canada. I have sent at least 7 messages to the company and Amazon. To date I have not gotten a reply on how to return it. Every answer says they are looking into it. It’s April now and still no reply on how to send it back. If you live in Canada DON’T BUY IT!!!D. Stewart
