    Average smart watch... Major issue is that is very hard to configure/setup and I seemed to have problems navigating through the menus. Not all that intuitive. User's manual was of no help. Returned it.

    Love my watch! It is extremely easy to use and tracks so many things for a reasonable price. Smaller than other smart watches which is nice for a petite wrist. The only thing I wish it could track is elevation gain.

    Older model, but plenty of features. Slim and seems pretty durable. I originally bought it just for a hopped up pedometer. The more I play with it, the more uses I find. Overall, a great deal for an entry level smart watch/fitness tracker. Oh and battery life is phenomenal.

    Was looking for a basic but accurate gps watch since getting back into running. Garmin had good reviews everywhere I looked and came across this watch on sale. I absolutely love it. Doesn’t have the fancy features of higher end smart watches but if you just want a real accurate gps watch to track your runs at a decent price look no further!
