Garmin Bounce 2 Kids Smartwatch: LTE Connectivity and Amazon Music for Young Users
Garmin has launched the Bounce 2, a new LTE-connected smartwatch designed specifically for children, priced at $300/£260 with a $10/£10 monthly subscription. This smartphone alternative offers parents peace-of-mind features including two-way voice calling, text and voice messaging, real-time location tracking, and temporary geofencing alerts. The watch features a bright 1.2-inch AMOLED display, swim-friendly design, and built-in sports apps for tracking activities like running and cycling. A notable entertainment upgrade includes Amazon Music support for phone-free listening through the watch’s speaker or paired headphones. However, the device comes with a relatively short two-day battery life, which while better than Apple and Google’s kid-friendly alternatives, still requires frequent charging.
