Enter, Novus, a 3-in-1 modular gadget. You can turn it into a mobile or a watch or a home assistant. There is a Novus core which acts as the display. There are three different modules for a phone, a watch and a home assistant. You just need to install the core in the module of the device that you need ; a phone, watch or a home assistant.
First of all, the phone. Novus is designed so that it can fit in your kid’s small hands without causing any discomfort. It uses a touch wheel instead of a keyboard to reduce the device size. The Novus phone has a great battery life. It can last for 3 full days in one charge. Novus phone has all of the multimedia functions of a normal phone. It works on Android 8.1 Oreo.

You can also call from your mobile to the Novus. For that you need to install the Novus app on your mobile. You can text, call, video call your kids just from the Novus app.

To turn Novus into a home assistant, you need to put the Novus core inside of the AI speaker home module. The home module has a built-in 4400 mAh battery and a Bluetooth speaker.
