VTech Touch and Swipe Baby Phone, Orange

Got this for my niece since she is drawn towards everyone’s iPhones. She opened it for her first birthday and was immediately obsessed!! It was so cute. Plan to get one for my almost one year old girlie next.

This little phone is a hit with my 10-month-old! The bright colors and sounds keep her entertained for ages. She loves pressing the buttons and hearing the different melodies. It's also surprisingly durable – it's been dropped a few times already and still works perfectly. Definitely a worthwhile purchase!

Good

Received on May 6th and already stopped working..... It's May 27th.....UPDATE 5/29/24: I changed my 1 star to a 4 because of VTech support. They were easy to work with and are sending me a replacement for free. They also let me know that they no longer stock the Blue item so maybe the blue ones are lemons? We will see how long the replacement lasts and I will post another update.

This baby phone was amazing. I bought it for my grand daughter. She is 10 months old. She is always wanting my daughters smart phone. My daughter had come over for a visit. This phone was delivered while she was there. My daughter did not want me to get it for her. She said dont get her another thing. Of course I didnt listen. Well let me just say.. When I got the phone I said to my daughter this is for her to have when she comes to grandmas house. You will not be taking it home. So she did not object. Well, as soon as I opened it and gave it to my grand daughter she just loved, loved , loved it. She would not put it down. My daughter then said to me " Mom Im taking it home. I said no you''re not".:) Lol.Well She did take it home. My grand daughter loves it and wont put it down. She prefers it to all her other toys. This one is a winner.Oh, the price is great as well. No one will be disappointed.I just wanted to add. I had to exchange this phone for another one as it broke. My granddaughter was heartbroken. It broke twice. This saddens me. And my grand daughter.

My 1 year old is obsessed with stealing our phones and gets angry when we take them back from him (even though we don't show him videos on them or anything really - i just think he sees us carrying them and wants them too). So we got this to try to appease him so he could have his own phone. Seems like the whole family had the same idea and he was gifted 3 different ones for Christmas. This one was the one i got him and I thought it looked like the one with the most bells and whistles that could keep him occupied - also there was a mention of "learning" that suckered me in.In practice this thing is just a noise machine that seems to have very little rhyme or reason to what happens when you push buttons. There is a function where you can put in your phone number so, i assume, you kid can start to memorize your phone number but I discovered this by accident (also questionable why this would be useful). Sometimes the phone seems to just decide that no matter what button you push is it going to make the same annoying noise until you "swipe" to the next screen. There is really no learning aspect to it (but to be fair I don't think any of these types of toys offer any real learning potential - not the point really) . There is one "song" on this that we all laugh at because the words are either completely unintelligible or utter nonsense ("Music, back, dancing in a bag"?). To top it all off my son doesn't really love this toy and it hasn't deterred him from wanting our phones - it occasionally offers him a 3 - 5 min distraction when he is having his diaper changed and then he looses interest.I guess this gets 3 stars because is ok quality, and not really worse than the other two "phones" my son was given. I would say it is unnecessarily complicated for not actually offering anything of value - little kids just smash buttons and older kids would be lose interest in this in a matter of seconds.

I love this toy phone. My twins just turned two and this was one of their gifts. I knew I didn't want to get them a REAL electronic device, even though they love "playing" on everyone else's phone and tablet. They're still young enough to be entertained by a toy, and this one is perfect. First of all, it's TOUGH. They're still at that age where throwing things is fun and this phone has already flown down the stairs and across several rooms and it's still perfect. Secondly, it's just FUN. It lights up, it sings, it rings, it says cheese and makes a camera shutter sound. The screen is hard plastic, so I assumed all the "apps" underneath were just decorative, but I was wrong. It actually responds to touch, so your child can select an "app" and it plays a different game with them (no, the screen doesn't change, but it starts games like "press the frog" or whatever). Also, when you slide the slider to the music player screen, you can touch the play/pause/fwd buttons on the screen and control the music. I was truly surprised at just how cool this toy phone is. Even my older kids pick it up and play with it. It's reasonably priced, fun and tough. What more can you ask for?

Purchased because we have had VTECH toys in the past. Batteries that came with it were dead. Replaced them with new batteries and they died within hours while the toy was in the OFF position. Put another set of new batteries in and the same thing happened while the toy was turned off overnight. Returned the product. Hopefully VTECH will find and remedy this defect.
