Elder phone slows down voices

Developed countries share this common point: their population are aging. Old Europe, but also old Japan. Put it in the modern telecoms point of view, it gives that cellphones need to provide more adapted features to keep seniors using handsets. The Raku-Raku, a newcomer cellphone to hit the Japanese market in next April, intends to solve the equation.
The cellphone features unusual functions like the ‘Slow Voice’ feature, which slows down the spoken words coming through the earpiece for easy listening, Digital World Tokyo explains (via textually). To output a even more perfect audio quality, there will be a ‘Clear Voice’ noise detection, which takes account of surrounding noise levels and adjusts the earpiece and ringtone volume to suit. As a needed extra for SMS, the phone features a text-to-speech built-in function.
Awesome phone, that you don’t need to be a grown-up to like, especially if you get phone calls at crowded bars and get tired of yelling at your phone.
