Doro produce both clam- and bar-type feature phones which run Doro's own operating system, such as the Doro 6820 and the Doro 7060, and smartphones such as Doro 8080 and Doro 8100, which run on Android. Its devices are designed with loud and clear sound, large separated keys and an assistance button that alerts emergency contacts if the user needs help.

Mobile phones are named according to 'generations', starting with the simplest 1000 range bar-type mobiles, which have capabilities limited to texting, calling and a 0.3 MP (VGA) camera, progressing through 6000 and 5000 range clamshell and bar mobiles with email, video camera, calling, texting, Bluetooth and radio capabilities, all the way to the 4G 2000 range models.

7000 range mobiles are made in both form factors, are mobile phones based on versions of Android and KaiOS and have most smartphone capabilities while still retaining more classic style form factors. The 8000 range are fully fledged smartphones, with modern versions of Android.

Older mobile phones were put into similar three-digit generation groupings, with more subcategories such as mini (stylized in all lowercase), used for smaller phones.
