Does one need to be able to see the screen with this or can one operate simply using the buttons? Can a viaully impaired person operate it?

The buttons are small but half the time I just hit them to change stations or volume. The instructions are not very well written so I had to figure it out. I'm not sure how to answer this question really. If you don't mind just hitting buttons until you get results then yes. Hope this helps

A visually impared person can probably use this. Because I use it while driving, I am often pushing buttons and not looking at it. The buttons are quite small tho.

The unit is able to be plugged in which is how mine is most of the time. As to its ease of use... I would have to say that if a person has a good memory for the location of buttons and their function it is relatively easy to use. Frankly, now that I'm familiar with the location of the buttons and they do I often use mine at night and don't bother to turn on the lights to see what I'm doing.

Don't believe so, but I have just used the buttons to navigate thru the screens.

Yes, I can. The screen is large enough to see clearly. I very much like my calculator.

The remote is super easy to use. Hook it up to your computer and add your devices and the function the are to serve. During use if anything is wrong, on screen help button allows you to fix any problems.

The touch screen can not be completely disabled but you can use the hide touch button on the display.

You can toggle the screen off so nobody can see it. Also, the screen is directional, so you have to be looking straight at it to see it. That way people around you can't see what you're doing.

Technically it's easy. Contorting yourself to reach them or see the screen on your arm is the challenge. You have full access to the screen as there is no cover. It all depends on how you position it to begin with. If the screen is facing away from you, it's simply harder to see. But all the control work fine. I hope that makes sense!

The button need to be depressed to hold the IS on. This is no problem with ordinary viewing, as one is holding the binoculars anyway. If it is hooked up to a camera by some sort of stand, a mechanical method of holding down the button would need to be devised.

Yes you have have to touch the button. I do not have 2 of these so I cannot tell you much about this particular function.

Yes, we used one big initial on each button as my dad has very low vision. Was not difficult to set up or program.

Yes, you can still use the touch screen... It's easier if your fingers are dry though. You can still use it if they're wet but it's cumbersome. I use mine while drifting down the river on an intertube.

Yes! I can even read all the buttons without my reading glasses. This is a terrific phone. And I agree with the other reviews - I also like the size of the buttons.

Connecting the device to the tv was not difficult. It is easy to switch between the device and tv if you are able to select inputs or devices with your tv remote. We purchased this device for my Father who has vision issues, with it he is able to continue reading on his own.

Yes. I am legally blind, and have no difficulty using the scale. It would be very helpful to you to have a sighted person read the instructions before you use it.

i use my finger on the screen. it has been a good unit although the menu is a bit confusing at first.

That's far too complicated and technical a question for me. My wife uses it and has difficulty using the buttons, because they are so small. A voice activated system with something this small would probably work better.
