Worth the buy 10/10 would buy again
This watch has helped me become more active and has been amazing with tracking my calories. It’s water proof and was amazing to take swimming. Helps me not miss any texts or phone calls and has helped me find my phone multiple times. Helps me track my sleep and lets me know how my activities may affect my sleep. The body battery is pretty accurate. It stays charged for around a week at a time which is awesome. The screen on the watch is actually pretty durable as well.
