    The cost is the same as an Apple Watch. I have yet to charge this product and I have had this for almost a month now. If you are looking for something that looks different than an Apple Watch I would highly recommend this product

    Amazing watch with great features. I enjoy the fact that it is not a touch screen. The screen is very visible even in bright conditions. It functions great for triathletes and automatically tracks your transitions.

    It did not come with a manual, and as complex as it is it needs one. I know it is on line, but that requires more work for me, plus I now need my PC to be able to use-learn all the features. It's nice to have a written manual to refer to with out going to a computer. I wasn't aware to use al the features I need to buy apps, it would have nice to be told that up front.

    This is the best watch if you want a very good fitness tracker but not a smart watch. Love it came from an Apple Watch Ultra and love this so much better.
