Our verdict

Different gadgets, similar audience, and both aimed at ages 3 to 12. Retevis' RT388 walkie talkies (4.4 stars, 12,966 reviews) offer 8 channels and a key lock so small fingers can't wander off frequency mid-game, and they're inherently social, you need at least two players. The ARNSSIEN kids camera (4.3 stars, getting on for twice the price) has a 2.4-inch screen, a 180-degree flip lens for selfies, a speaker for music and stories, and stores everything on an 8GB TF card. For siblings or garden adventures, the Retevis set is cheaper and better reviewed. For a solo creative child, the camera offers more to do.
