That phone made with HMD is indeed interesting, because it allows for very detailed customization of the child’s phone’s content. Our child is 8 years old and has managed the first two grades with a smartwatch phone. Now all friends have mobile phones, so the child will likely get a phone as a 9th birthday present. That Fusion X1 is certainly high on the list of options, although the monthly price of 5.99 euros for the app to be acquired by parents sounds quite high. On the other hand, I would like to decide what apps go on the child’s phone, and completely block browser access, so maybe it’s worth that money. Or can these be restricted in other ways, e.g., through Google’s own parental control features?
