Originally bought from Best Buy and had for a year before I accidentally broke the watch face. Bought this as a replacement and we love it just as much. The location updates can be sometimesy and you have to play with the settings to adjust. But overall it does what it’s supposed to. The battery life is great. We get through the entire day before needing a charge. Occasionally overheats if things like brightness are max and use is prolonged. But these are minor fixable issues. Great value for the price. My 8 yo is gaining responsibility and also able to communicate with his friends and family. No complaints. No internet access either. Read more

It works with at&t. Easy to set up with a sim card. Did have to call customer service for a few things but they were so helpful and stayed on the phone with me while I got everything updated and activated. I had to restart the watch twice to get the signal to connect from at&t. I can't say enough about the easy app it comes with either, and I can keep track of my 6 year old who isn't ready for a phone. The location tracking is awesome, and she can call me anytime. It also has a school mode so she can wear it to school without it being an interruption. She also doesn't have the ability to add her own contacts or receive calls that are not in her contacts, which I love. No internet browsing either. So if you're looking for a watch thats reliable that connects to your GSM network, look no further. And if you have at&t its only $10 a month to add a line for a watch. Seriously love this thing. I will say the charger could use some work, I charge it for her as it's very finicky. Otherwise though it's pretty great as is. After one year... The watch band was broke off and they wouldn't replace it. So we bought a new one but couldn't buy them anywhere in the US they stopped selling them. So we ordered a brand new one in the box off ebay as that's the only one we could find. The sound stopped working a week into purchasing it. We contacted the manufacturer who would not replace it because we didn't buy it from them or Amazon. Which was impossible at the time. Wasted $340 on these watches. So we just bought a Samsung Galaxy watch 5 and that's what my daughter wears now. Read more

I’ve tried several kids' smartwatches, and the SPACETALK Adventurer 4G is by far the best one yet! The setup was incredibly easy, especially compared to other watches we've used in the past. It was up and running in no time, with clear instructions and no tech headaches. The watch itself is durable, the GPS tracking is accurate, and the call quality is fantastic. My child loves the games and camera, while I appreciate the peace of mind with the safety features and SOS alerts. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a reliable, kid-friendly smartwatch!

Great parental controls! No internet access. Gives me the ability to GPS locate my kid or call my kid. Gives my kid the ability to call trusted numbers for help. Allows me to control times of use so the kid is not playing with it during class or tutoring. No complaints from teachers. Difficult to fasten on child's wrist. Difficult to charge. Video calls have not worked for us, maybe I am doing it wrong. Setup is difficult, as described in other reviews--allow time and patience. Revisiting after many month: I have gotten good at charging. For me the trick is to lay the watch in a good spot (turned the correct way) where the charge cord will not be pulling once placed on. Place the charger on and the green power light will blink from green to red and back to green. (I have seen this described as placing the watch on the charger, but with the straps sticking out and no support structure, other way up.) I keep my eye on it and count to 10. By then the light turns red and stays red until charging is complete. Of course, you could bump it and knock the charger off the watch, but I put it in a place where I won't. I do make charging my job, not my child's. I wish I could make the safe zones smaller, but this seems to be the state of the technology whatever product you choose. I have an elder care watch for a parent and it is the same way. I would like to see a software improvement. I have some repeating "school mode" times, which I generally like. But, when I want to add a "school mode" time for a one-off situation I have to delete the repeating one or work around it somehow. This came up because I sent him on a group camping trip. I shut down almost everything on the watch to help the battery last, but I wanted him to have it in case of the unlikely and may God forbid it event that he gets lost in the woods. You might be thinking I am crazy because he won't have cell service in the woods. Actually, search and rescue operations can bring in a temporary cell site on a drone to provide service in an area where someone is lost. This would allow me to use the app to remotely turn on his GPS tracking, if he still has battery life. Read more
