    I bought this as a gift for fathers day. It did arrive on time and was easy to set up. However, I was expecting the watch to allow me to answer phone calls. It does let me answer but can't talk through the watch. Have to take out my phone so that other person can hear me. Other than that works fine.

    I am the proud owner of the black version of this watch. So i thought it fit to get another for my training partner. It is light and syncs well with our phones. Others have complained of it not calculating caloric burn correctly but I have not been paying attention to that. I mostly use it for tracking my work out and as a hands free devise.

    The watch features are great and it does many things. I think because of this the battery gets drained so quickly. I've tried minimizing notifications, but that doesn't make any difference. Power saving mode is the only way to get it through. Cannot track sleep, though, because it needs to charge for the next day.

    Bought for my 13 year old kid for Christmas. He likes that he can get his messages and stuff on there. But he never really answers the phone anyway, so I'm not sure what the point of it all is.. He's pretty tough on stuff, he's broken like 5 bikes in the last year.. And this thing still works.. So I'm guessing it's well put together. Like his mom.
