GIVE KIDS A FUN AND SAFE CHRISTMAS WITH THE NEW OPEL MOBILE SMARTKIDS PHONE

With just under half (46%) of Australian kids aged 6-13 already using mobiles  there's no doubt a phone will be on the Christmas wish list for many children this year. But with concerns over safety, screentime and cost, it's no wonder parents are thinking twice… Enter the new Opel Mobile SmartKids Phone as the perfect solution!

Used by kids and designed by parents, it's a safe way for your child to stay connected while giving parents peace of mind. Unlike other smartphones it has no camera to reduce safety risks (such as images being shared online) and includes a stack of clever security features such as parental control over downloading apps and screentime, ability to whitelist numbers, a GPS location tracker with location alerts, an emergency SOS button plus a child-friendly case and screen protector.

"Technology is inevitable in this modern age, but there are huge safety risks for children which is why we've created Australia's first ultra-safe smartphone for kids. It has built-in parental controls that can be remotely controlled by multiple parents using either their iPhone or Android phones along with many other security features, making it the safest possible first phone for young children whilst still giving them freedom," says Paul English, Executive General Manager Opel Mobile.

Available at JB HiFi, The Good Guys, Big W, Officeworks and Harvey Norman (select locations).

Zero subscription fees, it's the perfect Christmas gift for your tween this year!
