Gabb Watch 2

Overall Score: 8.1/10

Gabb Wireless built their brand on kid-safe phones, and the Watch 2 extends that philosophy to wearables. The focus is communication and safety with intentional limitations: no games, no apps, no internet.

The Verdict: Best for families who want the most locked-down kids smartwatch. Less feature-rich than TickTalk but also less distracting.

• Calling and texting only
• GPS location tracking
• No camera or video calling
• No games or apps
• No internet access

• Parents control all contacts
• Kids cannot add contacts themselves
• No communication with strangers possible

Gabb believes in giving kids communication tools without the distractions and risks of smart devices. The Watch 2 is a phone on the wrist, nothing more.

Cost:

• Gabb Watch 2: $150
• Monthly service: $10/month
• Yearly total: $270

Slightly less expensive than TickTalk with fewer features.

1. Families wanting minimal-distraction communication
2. Parents who prefer less-is-more philosophy
3. Kids who do not need video calling
4. Families already using Gabb phones

1. Families wanting video calling (choose TickTalk)
2. Kids who want watch games and features
3. Those who need more advanced tracking features
