PanPan Kids Smartwatch Review It is simple to use.

The PanPan Kids Smartwatch is a simple effective product to keep track of your child or even elder with no fuss or hard things to learn based on your personal set up the key USP for me here is simplicity which is what we all want and this compared to other kids watches is the simplest form you can ask for.

The watch itself is robust and has just one button on the left allowing you to turn on/ off get your heart rate and steps, make an emergency call and receive one you also have the date and time battery level and signal level on the homescreen.

The product comes with an app the parent will use and it works on both Android and iOS which we tested on both to see if there is any differences which there is none.

The app works well giving constant location data and the historical location of your child’s whereabouts and keeps track of calls and other data you have signed up for like 24/7 monitoring geofencing and so on

The PanPan kids watch keeps track of your child fitness which is also hand built in here and allows you to watch for anomalies.

Call quality is quite good as you will see in the video review down below and overall this is one of the simplest kids smartwatches yet to date I have tested and simple works for more people compared to other watches we have in here for review which requires adding APNs and all that kind stuff which can be cumbersome for many.

PanPan Kids SmartWatch First Look

The PanPan Kids SmartWatch is a new product to the Irish market and a welcome on and from a person that uses and reviews smartwatches all year round I welcome this for kids, I myself have a large collection of both kids and general watches and it good to see how these improve over time and best of all keep me off my phone to a great extent.
There is much talk today about how old kids should be giving them their first phone and is a heated topic I have discussed before but the later the better or a dumbphone if required it is not only up to the parents to be proactive here but social media companies and more. Google and Vodafone have been the latest to take action.
Today we give you a first look of the latest device so if you have any questions feel free to ask while we test it out over the next few weeks with some more kids tech but check out the features on offer below and then check out the video and feel free to ask any questions during the next few weeks.
