However, independent testing has documented significant discrepancies between company claims and real-world performance on fall detection and backup battery reliability. The higher upfront equipment costs and transparent return process concerns also present tradeoffs. Best for buyers who prioritize hands-free in-home activation over mobility and fall detection, and who can verify AT&T coverage in advance.
