The user This product is created for a girl under the age of 10. However the actual user who would purchase it is a fictional concerned parent. This parent understands the effects that mobile phone radiation can have on a child’s health but still think it is necessary to equip them with one for their own safety. They are looking for a device to help reduce the potential health risks later in life. They love their child and understand that the bright colours and theme of the product will appeal to their child. The experience The Happy Handsfree allows you to take a call whilst not putting the phone to your ear (hence reducing exposure of the head to radiation). It is situated on the user’s wrist and features a microphone and loudspeaker. The purpose of the loudspeaker is so the child can hear the conversation without having to put the device to close to their head. The primary reason for this is to reduce mobile phone radiation to the child’s brain. A answer/end call button and volume controls are also incorporated into the device, with Bluetooth allowing it to connect to the mobile. View

How does this differ from the wired headset / headphone that comes supplied with almost all new phones?
Also – wouldn’t holding your wrist to your ear for a prolonged period of time not result in severe cramp?
The difference is this handsfree kit is situated on the wrist with visuals to attract children. Most handsfree kits are not designed to atrract children.
Your arm does not have to be held to your ear, as most handsfree kit/loudspeakers allow the user to hold the device over a foot away and still be heard.
If the “parent understands the effects that mobile phone radiation can have on a child’s health” they will know there is no need for this product. It’s selling on fear of a problem that has not been shown to exist and has an air of dishonesty.
Good idea. Sorry if this sounds flippant but I do you think young girls might prefer having the handsfree kit on a headband with the flowers on stalks?(or something similar).
It’s consistent with your general idea but reduces the risk of the child holding a bracelet close to their ear anyway.
