Samsung’s SGH-T109 waltzed on through the FCC’s database in mid-summer, and at this time it’s available on T-Mobile for those looking for the bare necessities. Selling for the low, low price of $0.00 on contract, this green / black clamshell arrives with no camera, no Bluetooth and no real fun to speak of. It’s a step or two above the Jitterbug, but don’t buy this one expecting to show it off. Oh, and it makes / receives calls, so that’s a plus.

If you find yourself squinting at your celly but can’t bear the thought of investing in a Jitterbug, LG has a phone that might catch your (bespectacled) eye. The new senior-friendly SV390/LV3900 Wine Phone features a larger screen inside (2.4-inches) and out (1.8-inches) for reading text “comfortably,” plus larger buttons for aging fingers to press more comfortably, too. Beyond the up-sized screens your $400 gets you leather texture on the outside and a fancy digital camera, though not much else, much like LG’s slightly smaller (and equally featureless) SV300 from last year. It’s available at this time only in Korea, meaning those with bad eyes and big thumbs in the U.S. will either have to stick with their Jitterbugs or just keep squinting. We’d squint.
