It’s ok
Bought it as a present for 7 year old. Battery life is non-existent. GPS accuracy is bad as well. After resetting as per instruction GPS accuracy improved, but overnight it went back to were it was before :( it is still ok to make and receive calls, but settings on the phone itself are very limited, and a lot can be on the app only. I would not buy it again.

A good GPS watch and phone - worth the money - but here are my tips for setting it up:
This is a good GPS watch and phone. The basic functions are that you can make calls to and from the watch, you can track the watch's whereabouts with GPS using your phone, and you can also use the app to see a photo of the child's location. That is about it - but all we needed. It is tricky to set up but works fine once you manage it. Note that the instructions supplied are a little sketchy. Here are some thing I wish I'd known before setting it up:1) Before getting started make sure you have a sim card with some credit on it. We used GiffGaff and it was easy to set up (we used pay as you go but calls FROM the watch seem to cost about 25p each with GiffGaff, so you may wish to set up a monthly plan with unlimited calls if your child is calling a lot).2) Make sure the sim card is FULLY inserted into the watch, otherwise the watch doesn't recognise it. I used the little paperclip thing supplied to make sure the sim was completed inserted, and then it worked fine.3) Be careful you download the correct app on your phone. Use the SeTracker app on your phone (NOT SeTracker2). We found the GPS didn't work with SeTracker2 but for some reason worked fine with SeTracker.4) To switch on the watch you have to press and hold the silver button on the left hand side for several seconds. You'll know the watch is starting when the "hello" screen appears.5) Once you install the app on your phone, you have to "pair" your phone with the watch. In the watch settings there is a QR code that you scan using the app to set up the link. This was quite an easy process.6) To charge the watch you have to carefully place the magnetic charger on the back of the watch. Because it is magnetic the cable comes off easily. We found it stays on better when you place the watch face down on a surface. The other end of the cable is USB so will connect to a phone charger plug. The charge lasts about a day so note that you'll be recharging this watch regularly.7) You add numbers to the watch's phonebook using the app. You'll need to do this before your child can call you. It doesn't seem possible to add a number through the watch itself, so you have to use the app for this.So overall tricky to set up but good once you get it working, and worth £30. I'll update this review if I come across any other insights.

Returned for poor GPS
Setting up is not easy, and the manual is not very clear with tiny font. Has to use specific UK carrier sims to set. Watch has a proprietary software is very limited. Controls from parental phone app are a better better.My mane problem is the GPS accuracy. It is a couple of blocks away. I am not sure if this will improve over time. Also note you will need a monthly data bundle, which is cheapest at £5/month at Tesco.Over all an average product. The main selling pint is price, as rivals with better software and support are much pricier.Update: one week later, I had to return the watch and was refunded by Amazon. The GPS is completely inaccurate. It uses LBS most of the time. This should not be advertised as a GPS watch.

Phew!! Pleasantly suprised
I have to admit that based on the reviews I was reluctant to purchase this watch and was looking at spending more on others. However, decided to take a chance and went ahead with it for my daughter.After reading some of these reviews I was expecting the strap to snap, the GPS to be miles out, the sim not to work and it to have been a complete waste.The set up was okay, the instructions were a little hard to follow but managed 😀.The GPS initially was 2 miles out but that was when we were in our house; outside it is near perfect!The camera works well, the phone works, games and app all work. I would say download the "SeTracker" and not "care pro +" or "SeTracker 2" as they did not work for me.The battery lasts just over a day but continued use would be under a day.All in I am very happy with this product and will work perfectly for my daughter!

Great watch
Bought this for my 8 year old daughter, it is great, I can see exactly where she is and where she has been, we can call each other & send voice notes- I would recommend this watch. Only downsides are the battery life, it would need to be charged twice if being worn all day, and if she’s inside somewhere, the gps goes off and the lbs kicks in which is not as accurate, but for the price of it I love it & my daughter enjoys the freedom.

Just stopped working…
Was difficult to set up. Shows my child in odd locations even when my child is at home. Then the charger stopped charging the watch. If I hold the charger to the watch, it gives a bit of charge but this is neither practical nor reliable!
