It looks like a gameboy but it's a cellphone. It is called Qin Duo Ping An Q and is a new Xiaomi mobile phone, designed for children. As we all know, the Chinese company has an endless list of different devices in its catalog, many of which will never cross national borders but testify how much Lei Jun's company is committed on various fronts.
The peculiarity of the device is the eSIM support. No physical SIM, therefore. The mobile has a 1,54-inch color screen with 240 x 240 pixel resolution, powered by a 1150 mAh battery which - given the limited hardware - should guarantee a long battery life. Charging takes place via a Type-C port. There is no shortage of Wi-Fi and GPS, through which parents can locate their child.
As mentioned, it is a product designed exclusively for children for which there are several software solutions developed to ensure greater parental control and use in complete safety. For instance, it is not possible to install and / or access third-party apps, blocking any spam or inappropriate content. Parents and children can use an internal and private chat to communicate.
Among the various functions, then, there is the XiaoAI voice assistant, the alarm clock, music playback, the encyclopedia and some study apps. In short, it is not a real smartphone but a mobile phone dedicated to the very young. We don't think it can be attractive to teenagers.
The cost? About 50 euros for the basic version while up to about 88 euros for the version that includes a data package. However, the device is intended only for the Chinese market. We will never see it coming in. For the rest, you can consult our article in which we list all the Xiaomi products officially available in.
