    I use it while hunting and it is phenomenal, the saved location feature is very nice when you’re not completely sure on how to get back. It also has so many diffrent Apps on it that I still havent got around to using. I would definitely recommend this watch to anyone who hunts, hikes, or does anything outside really

    Good quality. Met expectations. Long battery life is important for multi day outdoor adventures with no electric.

    Fantastic watch! I was a bit concerned at first because it's not touch, but after using for a month it's wonderfully easy to use. It has plenty of modes for measuring your exercises, and it is significantly cheaper than other watches.
