Works after battery change

Camera works and is cool and all, but there's something decidedly odd about intentionally shipping an electronic device with dead batteries. They say "for demo purposes only" but I ordered two for my kids and neither even turned on until I changed the batteries. So they're not even meant for camera demos, just. where do you put the batteries? It would be better if they didn't turn them on at all. You could skip a bunch of debugging steps and figure out why the device won't turn on. They useโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Frequency

We love it in the baby electronics

My almost 5 year old got this as a birthday gift to take with me on trips. She's still learning how to use it (she's only played with it for a few hours so far) but is really enjoying it. It is very sweet. You can add frames and filters, there's a volume button, you can save or delete photos (the X button clears all history, so keep an eye on it). There are so many possibilities. The quality of the photo is similar to that of the Fire tablet - a bit washed out. However, there is a burst modeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Minor issues

Christmas Kidizoom is good for baby electronics

I bought this camera for my daughter for Christmas 2020. While I was trying to set it up, the camera didn't do anything until I connected it to my computer. There was then a message that the USB was only used to transfer photos. I read the instructions and I knew it. I kept filming. I removed all GoldenPower batteries from the device and replaced them with Duracell Optimum. The device will still only turn on when connected to a computer. I called VTech for technical support. I spoke to a womanโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy build
Cons
  • Very expensive

Great camera for kids, with some weaknesses

UPDATE 8/2020: Changed my rating to 5 stars; It turned out to be quite an impressive gift! Still works and my son has learned to use some of the more advanced features (video, audio recording, camera effects, etc.) as he's spent more time with it. Haven't had any issues so far, other than the battery compartments coming loose fairly easily, but so far nothing has broken even with the rough use my kids have put in. I bought it for my son who just turned 4. He's obsessed with taking photos withโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free calling
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
