The battery life on my phone isn't what it should be on my phone, why?
It is common practice with mobile phone manufacturers to test all phones in laboratories and to then publish the results. These tests are performed with the phone switched on, without any manipulations, under good network reception conditions, in other words optimal conditions. The measurements obtained reflect the maximum performance of the product, thus providing a benchmark, enabling it to be compared to other models and brands.
When you use a mobile phone, you will not always have perfect reception, you move around, you use Bluetooth or Wifi, and you use it to communicate, but maybe as well to listen to the radio or to take pictures with it etc. All of these factors and others affect the battery life time per charge.
It's also important to know that a battery will not obtain its full performance until after a few recharges.
Do not hesitate to contact us for any additional information.

How do I pair with other Bluetooth devices?
How do I connect a Doro product by bluetooth connection to my phone?
The Bluetooth technology allows the transmission of different types of information, such as picture files, calls, phonebook contacts, or music on stereo etc.
For each type of data transmission, a different Bluetooth profile is required on both devices (mobile phone, tablet, computer, car kit, headset, etc).
The lack of connection between the mobile phone and your Bluetooth product can be caused by the absence of a specific Bluetooth profile in the mobile.
Indeed no further specifications are given on our website concerning the Bluetooth capacities each phone has. On the other hand, they're not advertised either as being fully compatible with all existing Bluetooth products on the market, or any specific model. If you want to check compatibility please contact the manufacturer for the other product and ask for which Bluetooth profiles that are needed to be able to connect with other products (for example Doro mobile phone). When needed Bluetooth profiles are known Doro support can answer whether the Doro mobile phone is compatible with the Bluetooth product or not.
Should the product not give you entire satisfaction, we advise you to please get in touch with the retailer where you bought the Doro mobile phone.
