    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.

    Perfect for runners, I highly suggest this watch to new/beginner and elite runners. It has everything you need and if youre swapping from a Apple Watch dont hesitate! One thing is that the charger cord broke like two weeks later.
