Alcatel Onetouch is showcasing a slate of new products at International CES this week.
The company, which brought us the well-received Idol 3 and Idol 3 4.7 smartphones last year, is launching its first tablet powered by Windows 10 Mobile, a full line of PIXI 4 products and a children’s GPS tracker watch.
Alcatel Onetouch has mostly been focusing on Android phones, but this week, it’s introducing its first tablet with a Windows operating system. The entry-level PIXI 3 is an 8-inch tablet running Windows 10 Mobile. The company hasn’t released many details about the device, but we do know about a couple features.
The tablet has voice-call enablement, GPS and both front and rear cameras. You can also use the the tablet as a TV remote control — which isn’t a new feature; it’s also available in the PIXI 8 tablet. It’s customizable with various color skins and flip stand covers.
The company also hasn’t detailed any specs for the PIXI 4 Family line, but the entry-level products include 3.5-inch and 4-inch smartphones, a 6-inch phablet and a 7-inch tablet. An Alcatel Onetouch spokesperson told Mashable the company is releasing more details on these products in addition to other news later this week.
Alcatel is also showcasing its new CareTime Children’s Watch, a GPS tracking device that lets parents stay connected to their kids remotely. A companion app, compatible with iOS 7 and above and Android 4.3 and above, notifies parents if their kids enter or leave a predetermined safe zone.
Even more like a smartwatch, parents can call or send voice messages to their kids. Kids can reply to calls from up to 10 pre-set contacts and make calls to five registered numbers. The battery lasts up to four days and comes in two color combinations. The watch will first be available in Europe and Latin America in April 2016.
