    Nice screen and durable. Only compromise is the watch band did give me rashes on my forearm. I also do feel the optical heart rate sticking out a little too much where it gets uncomfortable to wear sometimes.

    Not as intuitive as I was hoping it to be. I was promised that it would sync to my Apple Health and Fitness Apps to help me keep track of my activity, to no avail. Currently have it up for sale on eBay.

      Some activities may cause irregular arm movement, resulting in the watch recording too many steps. This may include driving a vehicle, usually due to vibrations caused by rough terrain. Garmin
