Best Garmin Kids Smart Watches / Activity Trackers

Over priced hyped and no support – These are a very poor quality product. I was nagged and hustled to get some for my kids. What a waste of money. The screen is extremely low… Read more

resolution, they offer very poor graphics, low quality games and apps. Battery life is shocking. When one of the ones I bought stopped working after just a few months for no reason the support from Garmin was non existent. Don’t wast your money.

connectivity issues.

They constantly fail to provide location updates, rarely notify when our kids travel through geofenced areas, and hardly ever refresh accurately.

Garmin support has been terrible. The number of times we've been asked to factory reset the devices or restart is painful.

Voice message feature is poor quality and has no capability for the child to write a free text message, rather they have to choose from 20 presaved messages.

Garmins next best solution is to send the device (purchased new) back to garmin, only to be replaced with a second hand refurbished unit, not to mention the time the child is without a device while all the postage plays out... oh, or they'll happily take your money in a holding account while they send you one and wait for yours to be returned.

Battery life is terrible too. With minimal to no activity, the battery barely lasts a full school day.

I wouldn't recommend these to anyone. A simple dumb phone would be far more reliable and practical product.
