Hi all. Just wondered if there was any standout options for a first phone for a 10 year old.
Budget probably around £150 if necessary.
For messaging, watching YouTube and browsing.
Anybody suggest the best way to control or monitor the usage of the phone to protect what they might come across and time spent on the phone, parental controls etc.
Thanks all.

Don’t post their address or face etc when larking about.
Also don’t trust an image as it being someone in real life. Often people use stock or hack others social media accounts.
In terms of phones. Check our @MrSwitch redmi deals. Redmi 10c was 99 on offer a while ago. I got a mi 10t lite for £179 myself. So lots in this price range. (edited)
Others have said about the risks, and I would suggest educating all children about the risks of being online, it is not all bad but it is sensible to keep children and teenagers safe.
PAYG from Vodafone £129
