All parents' requests.Review "My First Fone R1" for kids

For families that smartphones are still early.

Now that it's a noisy world, many parents want to have their children with smartphones and smartphones.In fact, there are few people around me who have a smartphone from the first grade of elementary school.

But my smartphone is still early.But kids' mobile phones dislike their son.If you only have the GPS function, you can only understand the location, so when something happens ...When I thought so, I had a chance to try the kids exclusive smartwo "My First Fone R1".

So, I tried to give a 7 -year -old child who is a crazy thing.

My First Fone R1

What is this?: A watch -shaped smartphone for children.You can use voice calls / video chat / text messages through the app installed on your parents' smartphone.

ikura?: 18,800 yen (excluding tax)

Favorite place: The functions that reassure your parents are perfect.

I don't like it: I don't have a vibe function.There are few types of face.

Parents' requests all

The function is wonderful without complaint.You can track your children's whereabouts with GPS, and you can see not only the real -time current location but also the history of the day's actions.

Video calls are also possible, and in the unlikely event that happens, simply press and hold the camera button to send SOS and automatic recording for 30 seconds.It will automatically send the content to the parent's app.If you don't check the whereabouts each time ... you can set a "safety zone", a range that your child can act alone, and you can also communicate where you are.is.

You will also be informed that the device has come off.

Maybe you can bring it to school

Many public elementary schools prohibit bringing smartphones and smartphones.

However, "My First Fone R1" has a custom manner mode called "class mode".This is something that the parent is managed by the app, for example, if you set it from 8:30 am to 2:20 pm, you can turn off functions other than GPS and emergency SOS during that time.

During the "class mode", only the clock screen can be used no matter what the child touches the screen.In other words, if you remove the watch belt and attach it in a carabiner, it can be used as a GPS key ring with a watching function.

This usage will be a gray zone for a school that prohibits youth.But it's a nice thing for parents.

Imperial SOS mode activates just by holding down button

The "emergency SOS" function is sent to the app and the current location information as soon as it is activated.And a few seconds, you will receive a 30 second audio data.The sensitivity of the microphone was good, and I was able to hear the BGM that had dropped the volume.I was able to hear the ordinary volume conversation clearly.

Activating SOS means that children are in danger.

For example, let's say you have been kidnapped.If you have a smartphone, you will steal the opponent's eyes and release the rock screen, and you will have to call SOS while pounding for the call volume.Before that, smartphones may be taken up when they are kidnapped.

On the other hand, if you think it's a mere rugged watch or a clock with a clock, you may be able to tell your parents the location information and the situation just by pressing and holding the button.Even if MY FIRST FONE R1 is taken up, the alert will fly, saying, "The clock has been removed."I thought this was an advantage.

Some variations in GPS

The reliable "My First Fone R1", but I felt that the GPS sensitivity was varied.During the class mode, it takes about 45 seconds to get location information or time out.

Also, when the battery level was low, the GPS did not work well, and despite being at home, the location of the cram school that I went to the previous day was sometimes displayed as the current location.

If there was plenty of charging, I was able to get an accurate position, so I realized the importance of daily charging.

It's hard to notice the notification

As I already wrote, "My First Fone R1" has a text message function and a video calling function.However, since it does not have a vibrator function, notifications and incoming calls are informed only by sound.Therefore, I rarely noticed unless I was in a quiet place.

The notification is not displayed on the home screen, so you need to swipe up regularly to see if there is a notification.

I thought that even if I contacted me, I thought that there would be no spons on it, so I decided to consider it as a tool that can be transmitted from the other side, rather than sending it from this side.

For those who want to support the independence of children but are worried

Last year, after my son was invited by a suspicious person to "go to it (a place that has nothing to do with the school road)" in a place with many passers -by schools, I am extreme.I'm worried.

Until recently, I picked up my son to the school, followed me to the destination, and when I was busy, I asked my father or husband to see how.When my son's friend came to my house, not only my child, but my son, I was sent to my house.

However, as my son's world expands as the grade goes up, and gradually starts to play alone, I have no choice but to support independence.Nevertheless, it doesn't feel comfortable living until my son returns home, so you can regularly inform you of your current location and you can check the location information immediately when you want to know.It was a lot supported.

As long as you remove the device or go to a place beyond the set safety zone, you will be contacted.You can hear the children's trends and get mutual communication, but they are limited to smartphones and avoid problems with smartphones, so their parents are packed.

It is a reliable ally of parents of anxiety.
