Our Take

A chunky, child-friendly smartwatch from VTech aimed at children aged roughly 4–9. It sits firmly in the educational toy segment rather than the true wearable tech market, offering games, a camera, and activity tracking in a durable, colourful design. It's one of the most established names in kids' smartwatches, competing mainly with its own predecessor versions.

Key Features

Front and rear cameras for photos and short video clips

Built-in step counter and activity challenge tracker to encourage movement

Motion sensor enables gesture-based mini-games

Touch screen display with watch face customisation options

Downloadable additional games and content via VTech's Learning Lodge app

Rechargeable battery via USB cable (included)

Our Verdict

A solid choice for children aged 5–8 who are fascinated by smartwatches but are too young for a real one. It keeps them entertained without exposing them to the internet. Older or more tech-savvy children will outgrow it quickly, and parents expecting genuine fitness-tracking accuracy will be disappointed.

What We Like

  • Robust build quality that genuinely survives rough handling by young children
  • Good breadth of built-in activities keeps children engaged without needing constant adult involvement
  • Parental-friendly ecosystem with no internet browsing or social features

Things to Consider

  • Camera quality is very basic — photos are low resolution and purely for fun, not keepsakes
  • The wristband can feel stiff and awkward on smaller wrists
  • Learning Lodge software feels dated and download process can be fiddly for parents
  • Battery life degrades noticeably with heavy screen use
