    In the second week of using it, the screen went black. After browsing a bit, I saw that it was normal — you just have to restart it. Despite this, it’s an excellent watch for the price.

    So far I love it! It tracks my steps more accurately than an Apple Watch and gives me insights on my sleep and stress levels. I love it

    Great product, amazing apps. However, cannot support Spotify on this particular model. That’s the only downfall.

    Amazing stats dashboard and tracking. Dynamic Heart rate monitoring during runs seems highly inaccurate though

    The menu can be a bit clunky at times but for starting out running and tracking anything health and fitness I highly recommend.
