I bought mine because it had the fewest buttons with the most obvious functions. It’s for my technophobic father-in-law who won’t touch a PC and can’t operate most of the functions of his TV’s remote control. This is the best user interface I have seen for such people. They really put some thought into it. They didn’t just put up a group of identical, symetrically-arranged buttons whose labels you have to read to know which to press. I bought mine at Goodwill, so it came without a user’s manual. But it was obvious enough how to use it, and the stickers on the back provided enough additional information to ease setting up the outgoing message and correct day and time.
I thank Casio for their attention to the user interface. More companies should do likewise.
The single problem I have had is that the VOX threshhold is a bit too high. Some calls get cut off after 10 seconds (all mine from my work phone) while most of them can go on – presumably up to the documented 5 minute limit.
