Review: Much better & safer than expected - I bought this for my 6 year old son for him to call/message when he's staying at Grandparents. I was a little dubious at first as was worried about him making or receiving calls to unknown numbers, what really surprised me is that only contacts added via the app by a guardian can be contacted or receive calls on the watch which for me is brilliant. Messaging takes place through the app, so if family members have the app they can communicate via this, again this removes any unwanted communication and I can view all communication on the app to ensure he is safe. He absolutely loves the voice note function. The GPS function is good, it means I can track and locate him whilst he has the watch on. At his age I don't have the need to do this much but tested it out anyway, it locates the watch quite accurately and you have the choice to view the location on the app as satellite or map view. We ordered a basic sim card and this works really well in the device, it took me a while to work out set up but when I actually read the notification properly that it could take 15 minutes for the watch to activate I stopped stressing over it and it was easy from there. You need the app downloaded first and then the watch displays a QR code which you can scan and it automatically connects the watch. It took me a while to work out how to activate without purchasing a subscription if using my own sim card. The first thing I set up was the WiFi which meant I could update any software. I would recommend setting this up when your child is not around, or not telling them about the watch until its set up, my son was so excited and desperate for me to set it up that him hanging around asking if it was nearly done yet made the set up longer and more stressful for me but that's just my son not the watch itself. I love the school mode which stops any use of the watch during set times, although my son doesn't take it to school this has been really useful for bedtime, I set the mode so that he can't call or message anyone between 7pm and 9am. Other features he loves on it, the step counter, he's worn himself out running back and forth to see if it's accurate. He also loves the camera. The watch is quite big on his wrist, but not too big that it makes it impossible to wear, it's probably same size as an adult smart watch. It has good protection round it and the watch itself and the strap feel sturdy and secure so it doesn't feel like it's going to break easily which is great with something aimed at kids. Overall I'm really happy with this watch, it has enough safety features that leave me comfortable as a parent that I can monitor what he is doing and he can't hide anything and enough to keep him occupied and grown up. Would definitely recommend.
Review: Do not buy ! Waste of money. - The battery on this thing is terrible , barely lasts a day and that’s not even using it for anything other than one 30 second phone call in a day . I bought it for my daughter rather than a phone , I wish I’d just gone for a phone and limited access on it myself . The charger is temperamental, so it’s constantly making a tone as it connects and disconnects , and whilst it’s doing this it is constantly sending notifications to the app on my phone telling me it’s low . The pre written texts are redundant and can’t communicate anything other than hello and goodbye . You have to pay the annual contract all in one , so monthly options aren't available . Everything it advertises like games and ringtones and all the other stuff are behind an even higher paywall to access except for a few tones and screen backgrounds, not that you could use any of it as the watch would be dead within 1/2 a day . The idea is great , the practically and execution of the device are terrible . No doubt it will be in a draw and never used now I’m I’ve paid for the annual fee. I will probably just get my daughter a phone . £180 for the watch , £80 for the annual contract £25 for an additional charger !! (Which my daughter needed for each parents house ) . Please for the love of God , do not purchase this and just get a mobile phone !!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great to stay connected
*by M***W on 7 January 2024*

XPLORA X6 Play is a great 4G watch phone for kids. It's super easy to use, and my seven and five-year-olds worked it out easily. We tried real phone but it was too much of a distraction for my eldest. I love that with 4G connectivity, your little ones can make calls and send messages, keeping them connected in a safe and convenient way. Really helpful as one of my children sometimes needs the reassurance. The Kids School Mode is a game-changer. No distractions during school hours means focused learning for your kids. It's a win-win for parents and kids! And the SOS function is fantastic. If there's an emergency, your kids can easily trigger the SOS button, giving you peace of mind. The GPS location feature lets you keep tabs on your little ones in real-time, ensuring their safety. Plus, it has a camera and pedometer too, adding to its versatility. My kids live snapping pictures on it. It's great that you get a 3-month free subscription to try out all the cool features and services. It's a must-have for parents and an exciting gadget for kids.
