In the past, on Children's Day, most caring parents just gave away some small toys, or took them to the amusement park to run around and have fun, and just spent a very meaningful day like this.
No matter how you spend it, you are afraid that you will not express anything all day long, and your children will feel that they are completely forgotten and different from their friends around them. It is inevitable that as they grow up, they will also slowly treat you as well. Forgotten.
When it comes to giving gifts, of course it depends on their age and their own financial conditions. It can really be anything, notebooks, pencils, erasers, toys... it will all work, so that they can feel it. In addition to birthdays, they really have their own sense of holiday, which helps improve the parent-child relationship!
If they have already started school, I think it would be a good choice to give them a smart watch that can keep an eye on their own safety at all times.
After all, in this increasingly morbid and sinister society, there are many mental illnesses, and children occasionally have brain twitches, and they will go on all kinds of crazy adventures with their classmates or on their own. There is a sharp tool that allows you to track and control phone calls at any time, so that you can reassure each other. Quite a few.
When it comes to children’s watches, there are only a few key points that everyone cares about:
1. Multiple positioning functions
Most of the models on the market are mainly based on GPS positioning systems. However, it is well known that GPS signals are easily affected by buildings and may suffer from poor signal quality. Therefore, most manufacturers will use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, satellite, AI or 3D and other technologies, through multiple Positioning enhances bearing accuracy.
2. Voice call function
To ensure smooth communication at any time, it is recommended to choose a model with Wi-Fi or mobile communication functions, so that you can use communication software such as direct dial phone or LINE for long-distance communication.
It should be noted that some brands cannot support call functions such as LINE; in addition, mobile communication functions usually require the installation of a SIM card and a monthly rental or stored-value plan from a telecommunications company, which is also an expense in the long run. I will mention this below. A pretty good plan for everyone’s reference!
3. SOS one-click rescue function
Children are often very nervous when they are lost or in danger. Sometimes the call steps are too complicated and they cannot contact them in time. The one-click help function can help to resolve the crisis as soon as possible.
In terms of design, this function is usually combined with the on-off button of the watch. If you continue to press the on-off button for a few seconds, the emergency contact number will be automatically dialed. It is recommended that parents give priority to teaching their children to learn this function after purchasing, so that they can be dispatched in an emergency. Useful.
4. The surface is waterproof, dustproof and anti-collision
Children's daily play is usually accompanied by activities such as playing in the sand and water. If the watch does not have a good protective function, it is common to hear that the watch malfunctions.
If the product has basic waterproof and dustproof functions, it will help improve safety and durability. Generally, IPxx is used to indicate the dustproof and waterproof level of the product. The higher the value, the better the effect.
As for the waterproof level, most of them are just signs of water repellency, that is, you can rinse it off, don’t touch the water for too long, and then wipe it dry immediately. If you want to use it in water areas such as swimming pools, For complete immersion in water, it is recommended to search for a locked waterproof grade of IP7x or above.
In addition, although most general surfaces now use tempered glass, which can withstand minor collisions, it is still recommended to add explosion-proof protective stickers to enhance protection. It is best to directly add a protective shell to achieve the highest protection.
5. Battery life
Children's smart watches currently on the market have a battery capacity of about 600 to 900mAh, which allows for a standby time of about 3 to 5 days. However, if you connect to a 4G network or frequently operate various functions of the watch, it will Shorten battery life.
If you don’t want to charge frequently, it is recommended to choose a model with a built-in large-capacity battery to reduce the frequency of charging.
6. Disable functions during class
Because it is a smart watch, the overly rich functions can easily lead to long-term operation. For a kid who lacks concentration, it is not only easy to reduce the concentration of study, but also easy to cause the watch to quickly run out of power.
Therefore, many adults will choose models that can set do not disturb/disable time, so that the watch can only maintain basic functions such as displaying time and date during the disable period.
But this function is actually useless, because if your kid wants to, he can still simply unlock it by himself. Instead of being locked in this function, it is better to eliminate the functions that have built-in games and can take pictures.
When the kid first gets the watch, he will definitely be very interested in playing with it, but without those two major functions, he will lose much interest over time!
7. Price
It is also the top priority that everyone is most concerned about. If you want all the functions, of course the more you choose, the more expensive it will be, ranging from basic models that cost two to three thousand yuan to flagship models that cost one to twenty thousand yuan!
Below I will introduce one, which is the best watch in my opinion, and how to achieve this, the most perfect money-saving solution at this stage, so that you no longer have to be dazzled by the dazzling array of children's watches.
After evaluating so many watches, the one I recommend is actually the Google Pixel Watch 2 LTE. You said it is not a children’s watch! Let me give you a simple comprehensive evaluation, and you will know how powerful he is!
If you want to know more detailed specifications, you can go toGoogle Pixel Watch technical and device specificationsSearch the area!
Children's watches sound like they are designed for children, but the most troubling thing about them is that they are actually a bit big. Due to the problem of increasing battery capacity, the average weight of the watch is about 50~60 grams, and the thickness is about The height is 14~15mm, and the width is about 1.3~1.5 inches. When converted, the watch body is about 43~50mm.
Let’s take a look at the specifications of PW2. It is designed in a round shape with a diameter of 41mm, a thickness of 12.3mm, and a weight of 31 grams. By comparison, is it lighter and smaller than any other children’s watch? !
Then the above-mentioned key points of selection are only for ordinary flagship watches, including multi-positioning, voice calling, one-click SOS, waterproof function, class disabling... and there are a lot of functions you can imagine and unexpected!
But the most serious shortcoming is that in order to reduce the problem of light weight, the battery life is low. It can only maintain power for one day of use at most. But on this point, my opinion is different from that of ordinary people. .
But from my point of view, in fact, if the child is allowed to charge once a day, and because the capacity is small and the charging speed is fast enough, charging it during bath time and putting it on after bathing will actually become a kind of It is also a good choice to develop a habit, so that people will not suddenly find out that they have not been charged for a long time when they are outside, resulting in a completely out of battery situation when they need to use it in an emergency.
If you are really worried about the battery capacity being too small, and those who are not afraid of 10,000 just in case, they can prepare a mobile power bank with the smallest capacity in their schoolbag and hook it on the keychain, or like the one I use. Super thin and small tofu head, it takes up no space at all in your bag!
Then, there are many cartoon watches that kids are most concerned about, which you can download or purchase and replace by yourself, or replace them with parent-child photos; and on the watch straps, there are also a lot of sub-factories that you can choose and replace freely.
However, as for the price, which is the most important thing, because of this watch, many people purchased the Pixel 8 Pro phone as a gift a while ago, which caused the price to fluctuate greatly. The current market price has fallen to about 5,000 for a new one. The price, if you buy it second-hand, you can probably buy it for 3,000 or 4,000. The details can actually be found on the Facebook group Google Pixel Mobile Phone Party (Taiwan)Here, send out a message asking for acquisition, I believe the private messages will come like a snowflake!
Then when it comes to smart watches, of course they must be supplemented by mobile communication functions. This watch has two models, namely BT and LTE specifications.
The BT version only has Wifi and Bluetooth functions, and needs to be shared with a mobile phone, or connected from outside to be able to use the Internet.
LTE is 4G. It uses a SIM card issued by a telecommunications company to facilitate the use of mobile networks. Moreover, this place without a card is used for the QRcode scanning and binding function of eSIM, which is missing a slot. The waterproof function has been improved even more!
One thing to note here is that the exclusive telecom provider for Google phones and watches in Taiwan is Taiwan Mobile. Therefore, when binding the watch to a telecom provider, if you want to use a non-Taiwan Mobile system, you need to first Install a Taiwan Columbia SIM card on your mobile phone so that it can be cracked through the network system and bind your watch to the eSIM of other telecom operators. This is the only place where you need to pay a little attention, but you can just borrow it from a friend. It’s not difficult to do!
Then you need to use the LTE 4G network on the watch. Of course, with the SIM card, the number will be bound. You can just buy a prepaid card. If you are very concerned about the number, there is a great solution, which I will also tell you. How to execute.
Although in modern times, few people remember each other's mobile phone numbers, when applying for a new phone number, if you can choose a good phone number, it will not only make it easier for everyone to remember, but it will also be of great help in future work. , just like my mobile phone number. When I was selecting it, I chose the same number as my birthday, month, month, and year in Western Europe. This is a number that I can use until the day I enter the coffin and will not change it again. !
I take the most economical Chunghwa Telecom plan as an example. Although it has a 1.5G network for a month and only costs 99 yuan for the parent-child plan, if you want to save the most money, you can actually use it every six months and only need to recharge it for 100 yuan. With Qian's Ruyi Card (prepaid card) plan, you can permanently protect your right to use telecommunications.
Then when the network is needed, go to the auction website and look for the Jinshuang extra-capacity package. 5G only costs about 100 yuan a month, which is much more than the 1.5G.
Moreover, the network capacity sold in that auction actually comes from the lottery held every six months by Chunghwa Telecom, which usually falls on 2/1~2/14 and 8/31~9/14. Lottery activities are held in each section. As long as you are a Chunghwa Telecom user and log in during that period, you only need to spend 100 yuan to draw a lottery once. One number can be drawn ten times a day.
Fixed prizes for Chunghwa Telecom Lucky Draw:
1. Domestic communication fee 168
It is non-transferable and non-refundable, and will be fully deducted within 6 months from the date of successful participation in the event.
2. Randomly draw 1 out of 4 Internet users:

What we need is the 1 out of 4 online bonus prizes. If you get the all-you-can-eat online plan, you can also auction it off directly online. The approximate price is around 500 yuan, which means you only spend After winning a lottery for 100 yuan, I first received 168 for half-year communication expenses as you wish, and then sold the excess network, making a profit of nearly five times the price.
If you divide it up like this, if you don't draw a lot for the purpose of making money, you just draw a small amount, and then sell the excess, you can probably think of it as free of charge when you use the Internet!
ㄟThe metered model is valid for 60 days, which means that if you don’t get unlimited Internet access, you can use it for two months.
The time-limited 30-day unlimited Internet access can be used for 720 consecutive hours after activation.
If Chunghwa Telecom has not changed its plan specifically, that will be the main thing.
Let’s go back to the selection number. After you select the number online, the system will keep it for you for 24 hours. Within that time, take your certificate to the counter to apply. Tell the clerk that you want to apply for the no-contract 199 plan. If you refuse, he will ask you to bind it. , saying that you just want a beautiful number, and then immediately convert it to a prepaid card.
If you don’t find a good code in Chunghwa Telecom,Far EasTone TelecomandTaiwan Big BrotherThere is also a number selection function. Once you have selected a number you like, you can use the NP transfer function back to Chunghwa Telecom by paying 112 yuan.
In this way, you can get a great number and an almost free Internet experience. This plan is also very suitable for people who have been living overseas for many years. Just buy an Internet connection online before returning to China. Yes, this is how I used it to help my wife, who has been living in Japan for many years.
Then let’s talk about smart watches. Because this flagship model is no longer just a children’s watch, it is actually very suitable for use by all ages. For example, it is also suitable for the elderly. Its health management functions are really good. use.
And I use it to voice control the light switch, brightness, and on/off of the light bulbs in my home, allowing you to realize your dream of turning the lights on and off while lying in bed.
This kind of comprehensive evaluation, combined with the recommended use plan, should be the best combination in my opinion at present. I hope this article will be helpful to everyone, and then every child can feel the care of their parents for them, and adults can also They can be more assured of each other's safety, and the elderly can move around freely.
