If your child is nagging you to buy them their first personal smartphone and you’re having trouble making the right decision from both a technological and safety standpoint, AT&T is likely to make your life a lot easier starting today.
This is everything you need to know about the first amiGO Jr. Phone

Yes, this looks an awful lot like the Samsung Galaxy A16. | Image Credit — AT&T
If that’s not cheap enough for you, AT&T will let you pay just $2.99 a month for three years with an installment plan, “qualifying” unlimited plan, and no trade-in required.
Of course, the key selling point here (especially at that killer price) is not the processor, display, or battery size of this Galaxy A16 lookalike, but the pre-loaded AT&T amiGO app promising parents peace of mind and aiming to keep children younger than 12 in complete safety both on and offline.
The AT&T amiGO Jr. Watch 2 might also be worth a look
- 1.6-inch color touchscreen with 320 x 320 pixel resolution;
- Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 5100 processor;
- 2GB RAM;
- 32GB internal storage;
- 5MP front-facing camera with f/2.0 aperture;
- 600mAh battery;
- Corning Gorilla Glass Victus screen protection;
- IP68 water and dust resistance;
- Accelerometer, ambient light sensor, gyroscope;
- Bluetooth 5.1;
- 4G LTE support;
- 1.81 x 1.57 x 0.53 inches (45.9 x 39.8 x 13.4 mm) dimensions;
- 1.21 ounces (34.3 grams) weight;
- Silver color.
Clearly, the amiGO Jr. Watch 2 is better than its predecessor in almost all the ways that count while retaining the core talk and text functionality both parents and kids are likely to rely on… in the absence of the aforementioned amiGO Jr. Phone.
Simple, affordable, and effective – what’s not to like here?
But if you can get both a relatively well-rounded phone with solid battery life and an excellent screen and a reasonably good-looking smartwatch with a camera and standalone 4G LTE connectivity at the incredibly low (combined) price of six bucks a month, why in the world wouldn’t you just do that and save yourself a little hassle and a lot of money?
