Especially in recent years, children do not leave their tablets. However, the Internet is not as safe as we think, so we need to take precautions to keep children safe. Now, Samsung has announced the Galaxy Tab A9 and Galaxy Tab A9+ Kids Edition tablets in Indonesia. While the new tablets are safe and comfortable for children, they come with some special tools for extensive parental controls and watch time limitations. Here are the details about the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Kids Edition…
Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Kids Edition comes with several safety features
The Galaxy Tab A9 Kids Edition and Galaxy Tab A9+ Kids Edition have a lot of features to keep children safe. The new tablets also come with various fun apps like a game called Crocro, a cooking app called Cooki, a singing and dancing app called Lisa’s Music Band, and a drawing and coloring app called Bobby’s Canvas. You can add more apps and games for kids.
Parents can decide how much time kids spend on the tablet each day and change the look of the special Samsung Kids mode. These tablets also have something called Eye Comfort Shield, which stops the screen from having a blue light that might not be good for kids’ eyes.
Annisa Maulina, MX Product Marketing Senior Manager, Samsung Electronics Indonesia, says, “Technology devices can be a supporting tool for children to play and learn. Samsung offers the Galaxy Tab A9 series to help children learn and develop their creativity while having fun, fostering a healthy and safe digital life for children.”
While the Galaxy Tab A9 Kids Edition costs IDR 3,299,000, the Tab A9+ version is priced at IDR 4,999,000. For now, we don’t know whether the devices will be available in other markets, but they should be soon.
