I have never owned a smart watch, I feel this is a great place to start. The price was reasonable, stays charged for days and provides exactly what I was looking for to support training in various activities.

I got my husband this watch over a month ago and he has not stopped talking about it since. He used to be in the army and I figured he would enjoy this watch far more than his Apple watch. He hasn't had any problems with it and this is by far the best and favorite gift he's gotten.

With the newest sensor for health tracking you aren't missing out by choosing this budget option. You get all the hr, 02, sleep tracking as the most expensive watches but with a more efficient power consumption and much longer battery life.

Never really saw myself as a smartwatch person but after much debate on wanting to get this, I finally did and I never go anywhere without it now. Great watch and the battery is unreal.

Although I haven’t figured out how to use all the functions, it’s been great so far. I got stranded at my hunting cabin for 2 weeks without the charger and the battery still had 5 days, which was nice.

It's great has more functions than I'll ever use, but I bought it for the battery life and not disappointed! 30 days and only an hour or two to charge! Screen is also alot more durable than I imagined!

Love the features and ease of use. I used to have a galaxy watch but that crapped out on me my second year of use. I appreciate the clean design this one offers and I can take it with anywhere and I don't have to worry about it surviving.

I purchased this to replace my Apple watch that is constantly tied to a charger... What a difference.. similar features but almost 30 days of constant wear without plugging into a charger. I was also able to turn on the golf yardage app on all the courses I have played.

Love this watch. The battery last 30 days and I dont need to be charging it every other day like most other smartwatches. You can change the settings and use for tactical purposes.

Good rugged smart watch. I went through two Apple Watches that cracked due to active lifestyle. Needed a rugged watch for fitness. Fits the bill but has some limitations. Screen not so bright and not a touch screen so takes some time to learn all functions. The Garmin App is just as good as Apple Watch App.

Excellent watch. It has more features than I know what to do with honesty. If you want a watch that has a TON of capability, this is for you. If you don’t need all the features, the price is a little steep. There are probably better options in the 150-200 range. This is an awesome watch.

I purchased the watch for my son. He really likes it. He says it keeps a charge for 2 weeks without any sun., works well with his phone alerts
