My daughter was really excited to receive the TickTalk Smartwatch for Christmas. I was initially concerned that she wouldn't like how bulky it seemed compared to the smartwatches I'm used to wearing, but it hasn't bothered her a bit. I was happy with how easy the watch was to set up after we found a screwdriver small enough to open the SIM card cover (note: don't lose the impossibly small screwdriver in the Christmas wrapping paper trash, as almost nothing else will work to open the cover). I've found the contacts easy to add, and she's easily figured out how to change the settings to accommodate different locations (vibrate vs. ring). The GPS locator has also shown to be accurate in our rural area. Overall, our first week has been positive.

This is an early review but it seems to be good. Easy setup. The only downfall for me is the preset text messages. The only way for my daughter to text in her own words is to use talk to text.

Battery drains fast, but is great in all other aspects.
