Sekyo Neo Fit kids smartwatch priced at Rs 9,990

NEW DELHI: Sekyo has launched Neo Fit, a kids smartwatch built around AI learning tools, health sensors and parental controls, at Rs 9,990 in India. The company calls it its bid to give families a connected wearable that is not a full smartphone.

Learning tools, health metrics and safety stack

Sekyo highlights an AI Learning Coach that uses voice and image recognition for study assistance, plus seven educational and mathematics games. Health tracking covers heart rate, SpO2, sleep, steps and activity, with reminders for habits such as homework and reading. None of those sensors replace a clinical check; they are wellness cues for parents.

Safety features include real-time GPS, geo-fencing, route history, SOS alerts with live location, and a Find My Watch function in the parental app. Communication options listed by the company include 4G video calling plus WhatsApp calling and chat. Parents manage permissions through Sekyo's control app.

Hardware specs in the launch note include 2GB RAM, 32GB storage, a 2-inch HD display, a front camera, a pedometer and IP67 water resistance. Exact network bands, standby claims and battery life under mixed GPS and video use were not fully detailed in the same materials. Families who commute across cities should confirm LTE band support for their local carriers before relying on the watch as a primary contact device.

What parents should check before buying

Kids' 4G watches raise practical questions: SIM plans, data caps, school rules on wearables, and how much location history a parent app stores. Sekyo's marketing stresses safety and learning; families should still read the privacy policy and decide who can see live maps.

At Rs 9,990, Neo Fit sits above many basic GPS watches and below premium adult smartwatches. Whether AI tutoring features feel useful will depend on real classroom use, not launch demos. Stock can vary by marketplace listing, and some retail pages have shown temporary unavailability even as the product remains listed on Sekyo's own site.

Buyers who want a phone-free device for a child should confirm return windows, warranty claim steps and whether WhatsApp features need a separate number. School administrations sometimes restrict cellular watches during exams or class hours. As with any child tracker, the useful test is a week of real routines: school gate, tuition travel and evening play, not a showroom pairing video. Sekyo will also be judged on firmware updates and how quickly parental-app bugs get fixed once thousands of SIMs go live.
