Note that the 9.99 per month plan is based on 2 year contract and with the watch; phone plans start 17.99 with 2 year contract or 24.99 for month to month plans.

While the watch product looks interesting (as a possible emergency talk and text line) - not very clear whether you can switch service providers, and the service cost on this is quite high.

Interesting option; thanks for sharing, but I'd request you to update the original post to call out the service cost; the current wording appears to imply that the 9.99 cost is available for a monthly plan

In their support section, they say that the gabb wireless is an ecosystem of devices that cannot be used with other wireless providers...

I have no issues with dissenting opinions but help your fellow sd'ers out by stating your reasons for disliking please. Whenever I see one word responses like this I just picture a grumpy old person. And I suspect that's not the case and you have legitimate reasons.

Nothing revolutionary here, just packaged for those who don't have the knowledge or motivation to setup something similar with what's already available.

I was a little curious in regards to the watch but the phone.. forget it.

Far as phones go,
I wouldn't pay more thatn $50 for whats being offered spec wise, the non pro. and FYI when this phone debuted, 2 whole years ago, it was sold for $99. Now 2 years later its $50 more without this promo.
google can lock your phone similarly with Famliy Link on ANY phone.

These are awesome.

You can spend hours trying to get family link to work (it's awful) or save your time and get something easy out of the box.

It has failed maybe 1 or 2 times in almost a year so not sure what your issue is.

What do you recommend? I am looking for something for an 8yr old. Don't want to get the kid a phone but the watch is interesting.

All depends on what you're wanting. The Amazon fire kids tablets are way easier than the Google family link stuff. Family link only works with a couple select devices anyhow.
