T-Mobile announced today that starting on November 5th, two exclusive smartwatches will be available for new and existing subscribers. And both can be had for the low, low price of free. The two timepieces are the SyncUP KIDS watch and the Timex FamilyConnect SENIOR.
The SyncUP KIDS watch has features for the children to enjoy while also helping parents to stay on top of their kids. Thanks to the virtual keyboard on the timepiece, kids can text, make calls, share video and voice messages to an unlimited number of contacts that have been vetted by the parents. Mom and Dad can track the location of their kids in real-time while setting virtual boundary alerts to warn parents if their children stray.
The Timex FamilyConnect SENIOR is an easy-to-use smartwatch that helps caregivers track older relatives and loved ones. It offers two-way calling and messaging, real-time location sharing, fall detection, and sports a dedicated SOS button. It also will monitor the user’s heart rate, tracks the number of calories burned as well as the number of steps taken and more.
The SyncUP KIDS watch is priced at $174 or 24 monthly payments of $7.25 on T-Mobile’s no-interest Equipment Installment Plan with $10/month watch line with Autopay. The device comes with two replaceable straps in blue and coral.
