VTech Challenger Laptop, English

Love this item......

Portable and meets the needs

This is more like a novelty toy for my children, 4 and 6. They like to pretend they’re a grown up with a laptop more than they like to use it for the games and activities. It’s a cute little toy and has quite a bit going on, but my kids do get bored after 5-10minutes which I find frustrating due to the price. It’s a nice little toy though.

Purchased for my granddaughter‘s fourth birthday. Both she and her brother aged six loved it. It is sturdy and I think will stand up to hours of play. It’s a shame the actualscreen isn’t a bit bigger.

This could be such a great product, but unfortunately the screen is so awful that it's really disappointing. It's far too small and because it's monochrome it's far too dark. A bigger colour screen would really make this good. It looks like a real laptop and the qwerty keyboard and mouse are nice, although the mouse is an old-style ball mouse and the sounds are a bit annoying, but what else is new with kids toys!

This reminds me of a product I used when I was in primary school to learn proper keyboard skills. It is exactly what I was looking for and the games help my son stay engaged with using the keyboard for various purposes. Finding letters, numbers, mouse skills, using the shift button to create capital letters. I am an absolute fan - this is not meant to be a ‘laptop’ but a learning platform.

It’s fab,my granddaughter will be delighted.

Having read product descriptions and reviews for these children’s laptops, I wasn’t expecting much out of this since I opted for it as the best of the not-so-good options in the market. However, it still has managed to fall short of my already low expectations because the activities are pretty bland, the screen really is so small with the poor light contrast not doing it any favours, and I learnt, on opening it, that you can ‘buy’ a power adapter to avoid the battery option. Why not just include it? Also, the words in some activities tend to move a little too fast for my 3 year old for whom I bought it. I understand it’s for 3+, but I have to be around her with it, else she doesn’t get it so it is being used like a toy, not learning and activity tool. Pretty pointless in keeping her engaged while I do other stuff. She so far likes the look and feel of it, but hasn’t gotten much use out of it. I will keep trying since I already bought it and gave it to her. It would have been good to have some touch functionality and ability to type even the kid’s name for starters as she wanted a laptop to work like mom and now can’t even type a word. The keyboard is mainly functional for player mode so she doesn’t get to interact with it as much as the mouse which is needed for most operations. The item is also not the most intuitive to use with an unnecessarily long user manual, in my opinion, that is tedious. Not excited about it so far, unfortunately. I give it 2 stars for the look of an old-school PC with the mouse that functions on clicks, and for build which means it may last a while, but this product can and should be improved. *****Update*****: downgraded rating to 1 star because even on the aspect of durability it is now floundering as the keyboard keys keep dancing about like they are about to come undone and the wires connecting the mouse to the laptop are loose like they will cut. When unboxing they were already exposed, and with hardly any use after 2 weeks, they look like they will cut. An unfortunate purchase. Save yourself the money.

Ein Geschenk an meine Enkelin . Sehr zu frieden damit und altersgerecht gestaltet. Bildschirm könnte größer sein dann wäre das gucken auf Dauer nicht so anstrengend und der Spaß größer.

Très déçue de ce petit Lap Top, qui premièrement, est seulement en anglais. Dure d'utilisation, on dirait qu'on est jamais vrm capable de choisir les options Les activités ne sont pas enrichissantes du tout et que dire de l'écran qui est miniature on ne voit presque rien!!! Pour 120$+ les frais de douanes de 35$ je trouve que ça revient cher pr cet achat ! .. qui ne servira pas

Buena

The real screen is so small on a big panel. Please see closely before buying

We ordered this laptop as a surprise to our son. The package looked like used product, the laptop as well. The batteries inside were rusty and guess what.....was not working either. Our son was so disappointed and we were not able to do anything but just raise a request for refund.
