The device allows children to send and receive voice or video calls, messages, and photos with a trusted contact list only.

A colourful 1.6” AMOLED screen, lightweight 47 g build, IP67 water resistance, and a long-lasting 730 mAh battery make it durable, comfortable, and perfect for everyday play.
