A:AnswerSome third party chargers may not offer protection from power surges. Please be sure it is a name brand charger.
Connect the charger securely to the device to charge it using the USB cable (Charging the Device).
You can charge the device by plugging the USB cable into a Garmin® approved AC adapter with a standard wall outlet or a USB port on your computer. Charging a fully depleted battery takes up to two hours.
Remove the charger from the device after the battery charge level reaches 100%.

A:AnswerI would say it depends on your expectations, but I find it very informative. It occasionally will give screwy results, like thinking I was asleep as I watched TV before bed. But I find those to be rare occasions, and I've had the watch almost two years now.
A:AnswerYou can download all types of timers as widgets and use them on your watch. I personally use the Timer Widget that will allow me to set the amount of time for the timer which is good for Soccer because I can set the timer for the halves.
A:AnswerKinda...when you read the email and reply to the email it will actually bring it up on your Bluetooth device (Android or iOS) for you to reply because I don't see a logical way to fit a virtual keyboard onto the small screen face especially when it is rounded. Now if it had a built in projector that would project a virtual keyboard onto your arm that you would actually type on that would be cool, but that would likely also increase the cost of the device to $600+.
A:AnswerNo, the GPS is not used to track a person. If a phone is paired to the watch the user can send a LiveTrack Link for you to see where they are at. This would require that they have phone reception and the phone is with them.
