VTechKidizoom Smartwatch DX - Camera, Royal Blue

Bought this for my sons birthday, The watch is sturdy and probably most appropriate for kids aged 5-7. Lived up to all expectations

OMG I did not know how great a gift this was going to be. Do buy the 2nd generation or beyond watch. Definitely look at this watch from a child's eyes and not from adult perspective as I think some reviewers have done. Also consider the price - the apps on this watch are not going to compete with a device like a tablet where you have so much more money invested. For the type product it is, the market it is made for and ultimately the low price you get it for - this watch is a great product. Once my 6 year old granddaughter showed me all the things this watch does, I thought "what a great price!" She can take pretty good quality pictures and video - not as good as our smart phones, but good enough for a kid! It is pretty easy to do the video - so watch what you say! They can be uploaded to the computer or tablet. There are many many video effects, audio effects - yes it has good audio recording along with the video. My granddaughter can use these effects to jazz up her photos and videos - which backgrounds etc. There are several games, time keeping - a game to teach time keeping, a motion sensor and game. It can be a stop watch, an alarm, a calendar. Oh, did I say calculator? I am sure I am not listing all the things this watch does. In a very easy, intuitive, kid friendly, graphical interface - she put the watch on an immediately was able to move pretty easily through all the functions. No instructions needed! I am a software engineer and I love products that work the way this watch does. There is a USB port for charging - and it can use the universal USB micro cables we use in the house for other devices, although it does come with its own cable in the package to charge the rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. They say it is for ages 4-9, but my grandson picked it up and started using it very easily - I would say any child age 3 and up if they are used to technology, use a tablet or your phone to play with they can use this watch! Some two year- olds depending on their intelligence. Great product for a very reasonable price. Kuddos and applause to the designers. The one problem I see is that you will need to set some clear rules about this watch and taking it to school.

She loves it!

We had the watch for about a year. My daughter liked it and wanted it for Christmas because her best friend had it. She did not find it very interesting. She was 4 and struggled to understand how to fully use it. She found some games she played a couple times and the camera, but other than that, she lost interest pretty quick. I will say my daughter did not take the best care of it, but nothing I felt that would warrant it to just completely stop working. We tried resetting and nothing. It will not charge or anything anymore.

This year, we bought both of our daughters "Smartwatch" type devices for Christmas. For our younger daughter (3) we bought the  LeapFrog LeapBand Activity Tracker, Pink  and for our older daughter (9) we bought this Kidizoom DX. After comparing them both, I absolutely should have just bought two of these. My daughter loves it even more than I was expecting. The build quality seems great, the battery has so far been lasting all day (she charges it overnight) and the interface is extremely easy to understand and navigate. She likes all the different watch faces and loves to track how much she's moved during the day (I especially like that she can start the pedometer and set a goal and then leave it running in the background while she uses other features of the watch). The included games are simplistic but I didn't expect anything super fancy...she plays them in the car or whatever...just to kill time every now and then. Unlike the LeapBand, this watch didn't require us to first download any software to our computer and sync it...it worked right out of the box. Once the Vtech store is back online, it'll be interesting to see what downloadable content is available but even if there wasn't anything...we'd still be happy with the watch as is. My only complaint or feature request would be that I wish there was the option to disable the camera button on the side of the watch. She's already had an issue where she bends her wrist in such a way that she hits that button, then every time the screen gets touched it takes a picture...so she ends up having to delete tons of photos of her coat, or walls, or the floor...that kind of thing. Not really that big of a deal but I wish I could just turn that button off.

She is 7 and it is easy for her to use.

The watch fit our 10 year old son well (I was concerned it'd be too small) and the preloaded games were fun for him. I mainly purchased this for the calculator capability as he has T1 diabetes and often needs to add up the carb counts of the foods he is eating, and for that purpose I am very disappointed in the watch. Rather than a normal calculator with all the number buttons (come on VTech, Casio made calculator watches like this 30 YEARS ago!), it has an annoying scroll up and down feature for the two numbers you want to add together, and you can ONLY add two numbers together. It still works, but takes a lot longer than it should and leaves A LOT of room for error this way! It does have many other features, and I think the pedometer part would encourage a kid to try to run around a lot, but for the calculator, not a fan.

We purchased this watch for my 6 year old step son for Christmas. He is so in love with this, and it’s a great little thing to keep him occupied and still learning at the same time! I love how it reads him the time so he can see the time and hear it. This will help teach him how to tell time. He loves to run in circles and see how many steps he has taken, so it’s awesome to keep kiddos active as well!!This is a great little device and I would suggest this over other brands out there. It’s very strong build, he is a tough boy, and took a spill off his dirt bike the other day with it on, and still in perfect condition.

Price increase when I purchased the second watch
