Our take on the VTech Touch and Chat Light-Up Phone

The VTech Touch and Chat Light-Up Phone is a pretend smartphone for toddlers and preschoolers, with a touchscreen, light-up patterns and more than 70 songs, melodies, sounds and phrases. It teaches letters, numbers, counting, animals and weather through pretend video calls and an on-screen map app. It suits parents who want a screen-style toy without a real device. Against rivals like LeapFrog's pretend phones, it leans on volume of content and a touchscreen rather than a full app library, and owners say the touch response and sound quality are the weak points.

It has more songs and a touchscreen, but LeapFrog toys generally get better marks for responsive controls and clearer sound.
What batteries does it need?
It runs on AAA batteries. The set in the box is for demo only, so plan on fresh ones soon.
Does it really teach letters and numbers?
It introduces letters, numbers, counting and animal names through songs and call prompts. It is exposure, not a structured lesson.
What is in the box?
The phone and demo AAA batteries. No charger or cable is included.
