Fitbit's Kid-Friendly Smartwatch Hits a Record Low Price
A popular smartwatch designed for kids has become even more affordable, with the Fitbit Ace LTE now available for $99.95. This is the lowest price the device has ever been sold for, and it's a great opportunity for parents to get their children to engage in physical activities and spend less time on their phones. The smartwatch is designed for kids aged 7 to 11 and comes with a range of features that encourage movement and outdoor play.
The Fitbit Ace LTE has a collection of fun and interactive games that can be played using the device's built-in sensors. These games are simple to use and can be played by tilting the arm or taking steps. As kids play more, they can earn points that can be used to purchase items for their digital companion, Eejie. The device also has useful safety features, including parental controls that allow parents to manage contacts and tweak other settings.
One of the standout features of the Fitbit Ace LTE is its ability to double as a smartphone replacement. The device supports Tap to Pay via Google Pay, allowing kids to make purchases on their own without needing a separate smartphone. With a $9.99 monthly subscription, kids can also call or text preapproved contacts and share their location through Google Maps.
The Fitbit Ace LTE's ability to encourage kids to engage in physical activities and spend less time on their phones is a welcome development, especially in a country where childhood obesity is a growing concern. Nigerian parents who are looking for ways to get their kids to be more active should consider this device as a viable option. However, it's worth noting that the device requires a monthly subscription to unlock its full potential.
