Hey folks, my wife and I use Pixel phones, but we’re starting to think about a phone for our kid, really just to be able to call 911, probably wouldn’t even get data. We’re looking for cheap and boring, the fewer features, the better. Also open to smart watches, tho we have no experience with them.
Are there any devices that fit the bill? I’m thinking something like an old Nokia brick from 20 years ago, but of course with VoLTE/VoNR.
Thanks for any help this community can provide!
Google needs to make the three Little Pigsels, a series of special starter Pixels for children. The three Pigsels come in Straw, Wood, or Brick, and feature a stock Android UI and a standard Pixel camera to get your child started on the correct path.
I bought this one for my youngest brother. It works fine and it comes with a years worth of service. Bought it so he can call me during emergencies. https://slickdeals.net/share/android_app/fp/829226
Nokia still makes dumb phones now, with 4G too!
Check out the Nokia 225 4G and 6300 4G.
Just search dumb/bar/feature phone on Amazon, you’ll find lots of it. If you want 4G connectivity, add 4G keywords. That’s it.
Asking for recommendations usually means hoping your peers will have personal experience, which beats just searching for phones and reading the reviews that may or may not have ill intent.
You could go this route. The phones have good various parental controls, relatively cheap and effective. Gabb Phone
Woah, this rules. Never seen it before.
Yeah it’s pretty big out where I’m from. They also make smart watches too I believe.
