    I’ve worn the watch for a couple of months now and it was a great choice over the Apple Watch. It’s definitely accurate. I wish they had more feminine bands.

    Greta watch, tons of useful features and battery life is close to specs on duration between charges. I use it for my norning alarm daily and I'm sure this probably drains it faster but im ok with that.
