    It's a nice smart watch with lots of features for the price range, however the whole reason I bought it was to monitor my heart and the menu doesn't allow simple access to the HBPM, like always on or even one touch options. You have to wrestle a menu each time. The fitness app is really good though. This watch wasn't for my needs, so I went with Withings and I couldn't be happier.

    It took some getting used to since I have had an Apple Watch for years. It has definitely been worth it for the battery life alone. I definitely recommend this watch!

    Great watch for the price. Does everything I need from a smart watch. My only complaint is that the watch head could be a bit smaller, but that's unfortunately just the size of smart watches nowadays. LOVE the fact that the battery stays charged for like 10 days, it's a game changer.

    Phenomenal Upgrade

    I switched from a Samsung Galaxy Active to this watch due to the reviews around battery life. I was barely reaching 2 days with my Samsung and am now beyond 7 days before having to charge my device. The watch is comfortable and large enough to interact with and record all my workouts on. Very shocked at the amount of features they've packed into this little device and still have it last as long as it does. If you're in the market for an upgrade and your focus is fitness you really can't go wrong with this watch

    I bought this to replace a vivosmart 4 that quit working. I really like all of the additional features it has. The weather, and the faces I was able to download. The size is a little bigger, but it's still comfortable

    Love this Watch. It is so light. Easy to use. Sometimes the battery life dips. But it’s usually is resolved quickly by the company with an update. Strong glass.
