    Face of watch is too easily damaged for kids… recommend a protector for it that won’t just unclick from the device

    Child really enjoys having the games, does encourage more activity. Phone calls could be a bit clearer but for a wrist communicator it's more than acceptable. Held up well through a theme park visit but does need a daily charge.

    I bought this for my son(8). He loves it. It gives him a bit of responsibility, keeping track of it and charging it. I like how it doesnt allow anyone outside of my approval to contact him, and I'm able to find his location

    This watch is exactly what we needed for our 10 year old kid this summer. He is becoming more and more independent and this watch gives us the peace of mind to let him roam a bit more. We can track him from the app via GPS, he can text people within his family, call us directly from the watch, and helps him feel safer our there on his own.

    I bought the Fitbit Ace LTE for my child, and it has been an excellent investment. What I love the most is that it includes features like GPS, calling, and messaging through the app, which gives me peace of mind as a parent. I can easily communicate with my child while they’re playing or at extracurricular activities. The battery life is decent, and the design is modern yet kid-friendly. It’s comfortable to wear, and my child loves using it to track steps and stay active. The water resistance is another big plus—I don’t have to worry if they wear it in the rain or while washing their hands. One area for improvement could be adding more watch face customization options, as they are somewhat limited. Other than that, the Fitbit Ace LTE delivers on everything it promises and more. It’s the perfect tool to keep kids connected and active at the same time. I highly recommend it!

    This watch is great. I bought this watch so i can message my son while his on school so he know where am i when picking him up on school. Instead of phone. Just need to pay for data for it. This is good if your not into phone while your kids in school and theres a tracker too.

    One of the best gifts I could have ever gotten my 8 year old. Only downside is the subscription and the battery life. Would be nice if it could last more than a day but it’s great be able to track and communicate with my child with control over who can contact him and who he can contact. Now we are randomly getting texts from our sweet boy telling us to have a nice day and that he loves us. Can’t wait for our middle child to be old enough to buy him one as well.

    Battery Life is not good

    The battery life states it lasts up to 72 hours - It in fact does not - My daughter is lucky to get a full day out of hers and she isn't playing games and on it all the time. She had it on for an hour and off for 3 and it is already down to 79%.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hey there, DanielleL. We hear your concern regarding battery life on the Ace LTE. For clarification, the Ace LTE is designed to last for roughly 16 hours. To save power and extend battery life here’s what you can do:

      1. Turn on Battery saver.
      2. Turn off Always-on screen
      3. Turn off Tilt-to-wake
      4. Reduce screen timeout period

    No regrets. ! I have a 9yr old who really doesn't need a cell phone but needed some way to be reached in case I needed to. I did some research to see what options were out there that would suit our needs of simplicity, gps capability, texting and calling and this smartwatch checked all those boxes without breaking the bank. It's a great starter gadget for kids that are too young for the responsibility of a cell phone. My son loves his smartwatch. He is able to text and call without any issues. I would definitely recommend it to fellow parents with kids between 6-11.

    My 9 year old started having interest in smart phones and smart watches recently and was asking about getting a phone or a watch for Christmas. I was so relieved when his father found a smart watch that allowed my son to have smart watch capabilities without actually getting a smart phone. We got one for him and his 8 year old brother, and so far it's been such a great decision. Them being able to so easily call me and text me is so helpful. I also really like that I can easily see where they are, regardless of whether or not they're near Wifi, and it also tells me whether or not they actually have their watch on their wrist. So far, this watch is a real game-changer for us and I couldn't be happier with it.`

    This is great for a kid who is not yet ready for a phone but has a little neighborhood independence. Although this was for a location and communication driven purchase, I love the fit features and the daily goals. There is even a family goal for steps so it’s been fun for additional games! Would be soon purchasing another for my younger kid!

    Good Value but strap is terrible

    Good value, but the strap is useless and features are tied to the app. Communication features are tied to the app or other Fitbit Ace LTEs. So my son can't message his friends, and his messages to us are through the app, which we don't check often. The stap is also terrible; the velcro doesn't stick well, so the watch falls off constantly.

    My daughter loves it and we are communicate with her using call and text which is the main reason we bought it. Also like watch feature which motivates her to take steps during the day and allows her to be more active and use those points to play games. Nice product!
