[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and I were so excited for this smartwatch to arrive. We were looking for a smartwatch that was kid friendly and had the features such as gps tracking, voice calling and even messaging. While this smartwatch has all we were looking for the initial setup was just longer than I had expected. Downloading the app was a breeze, but getting the watch to link to the app honestly took me about a day. The watch would not connect I had issues with it saying it needed a new sim card. I restarted the watch and was able to finally getting linked to my account. The watch is pretty decent in my opinion, the call quality was great and there’s no static or interference. The messaging works great as well too. I felt the gps was a little bit inaccurate, but other than that its a good watch. To continue having the call and message features you need to have a active subscription and pay a monthly fee which isn’t too bad.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am skeptical about getting my child a piece of technology I would consider being for adults, but this smart watch, I think, fits perfectly for my child. It's vibrant and fun, and has some pretty cool features. My favorite feature being the SOS that you can hold a button for 5 seconds and it will send a 30-second recording to my phone via the app. That's just cool. I appreciate that I can control what features my child can and cannot use, and if I don't need the subscription, I can still just use it as a watch (and as long as it's connected to wifi, you still get some features like the SOS).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would like that this watch it a little too complicated to set up for me. I do want to point out that I love the design and the conformity. Another thing it does track the location of my son.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the concept of this My First Fone S3+ Kids Smartwatch for my Grandson! It helps with providing his safety and well being. My Grandson can call or text me when needed. This watch has video call and an SOS option also. The step counter and blood pressure monitor is a great addition! This watch is pre loaded with two tunes, but music can be downloaded to it. The clock face has different picture options that can be changed. This smart watch was very easy to charge with the included magnetic charge cable. The app was a bit of a challenge but I got through it. The one thing I'm not happy with is the location tracker hasn't been accurate at all! That does worries me in case of an emergency!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great sound and reliable performance in a kid - friendly design. The setup was quick, the features are useful , and it’s comfortable enough for all-day wear.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Do not recommend. The charger sucks, it doesn't stay on well. I wanted to use this just with WiFi which it says is possible. Would not connect to internet. Said it had correct password but would just spin.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this watch for my 8 year old son. On school days we charge it overnight and the weekends his heavier use runs the battery down throughout the day. So it needs an extra charge. It was easy to set up but you will needed to set it up twice. Once to connect to the internet to get the update. Then a second time once there update is complete. The parent app is easy to use and is user friendly. I can set up restrictions and limit him from using the watch for anything other than a watch during the school day. He can listen to mp3 music on the bus ride home. The SOS feature is really nice. It alerts me immediately similar to an amber alert and includes a 30 second audio. The GPS tracking works well and I found it to be pretty close to where he's at. We found te watch to be very limited on functions without the subscription but its affordable and includes a free month. My son and I had a few problems. The video calls seem to drop after a few minutes telling us to wait 4 minutes and try again. Also the parenting app has predetermined texts but they don't currently show up on is watch so he cannot send a message containing text. While the subscription works similar to a cellular plan it doesn't actually give you a phone number which I consider a plus for controlling who can initiate contact. Overall it's a great option for kids who want a phone or watch while maintaining safety and control. Fun fact: My son averages over 8k steps a day!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This smartwatch is indeed a great First Smartwatch. It's simple to set up and get a hang of it. My 8 years old says it sits comfortable on his wrist. The camera quality is pretty basic but my son still enjoys it. Battery life is okay but needs to be charged regularly if used a lot.
