The first thing you’ll notice about Snapfōn is the big and bright keypad buttons. In fact, they are so BIG and bright the phone can be used easily in complete darkness.

Easy to Read

The ez ONE displays numbers in an easy to see 28-point font. When you compare Snapfōn’s screen to others… well there really is no comparison. If you are tired of asking others to read the numbers on your screen, then the Snapfōn ez ONE is for you!

Just the Right Size

While the pictures here on our web site are extra-large to show you all the details of the ez ONE, the phone itself is perfectly-sized to fit in your hand, pocket or purse. At just 4 inches long, 2 inches wide and 1/2 an inch thick, the ez ONE is the perfect traveling companion.

Peace of Mind in an Emergency

If there’s an emergency, press and hold the S.O.S. button for 5 seconds. This will sound an alert and consecutively call 4 programmable numbers until you receive a response. It will even send “Emergency please answer my call” in a text message to each of these numbers. For your convenience the phone is set to call your local emergency response center when the S.O.S. button is first activated.

Speaking Keypad

Even if you can’t see the keys, you can hear the number as you dial! No more mis-dialed numbers!

Are you in the dark?

Our high-intensity, LED flashlight gives off a bright beam of light for up to 20 feet. Because it is a low energy LED it can run on the phone battery for hours! The slide switch on the side of the phone makes the flashlight a snap to use! This handy feature will illuminate your locks, set your path aglow, and brighten your search for lost items.

Bonus Accessories

For your convenience we have added a snap-lanyard so that you can keep your phone close at hand. Also we have given you a soft case to help protect your ez ONE.

 Thanks, in large part, to Buffington’s efforts, Skills has diverted over 20 tons of computer-related materials from area landfills. Through One Stop Communications, Buffington serves as a point of contact to the public, promoting recycling and collecting outdated and end-of -life computer equipment for Skills’ recycling program in Juniata County. The computers are then disassembled and shipped to various recyclers in PA.  

 Buffington’s efforts not only benefit the environment, they support people with disabilities. Donating computer-related materials to Skills’ vocational training and industrial services programs provides individuals with developmental disabilities with an opportunity to learn valuable employment (and pre-employment) skills in a supportive environment — while earning a paycheck. 

 “Improving the quality of life for people with disabilities while protecting our environment is a major undertaking,” said Ernst. “Michael’s partnership with Skills is one example of the positive steps that have been taken in this direction.” 

 Skills began its computer recycling program in February, 2005. “Keeping computers out of landfills is a primary goal of the program,” said Ernst, “We felt compelled to acknowledge Michael’s hard work to that end. When a computer is buried in a landfill, there is a high risk of the toxic chemicals contained within it eventually leaching into the groundwater.” 

 The award criteria are: Community and public involvement; partnership and collaboration; effectiveness; and other specific considerations.  

 Founded in 1960, Skills is one of the oldest and largest private non-profit human service organizations in Central Pennsylvania serving people with disabilities.  Skills employs 900 staff throughout 14 counties and support 1300 individuals.
