This watch battery won't even stay up for the day, have had numerous false fall alerts go off & can't shut them off. Also have had issues related to touch sensitivity for regular operations. May end up returning for another smart watch altogether.

I really wanted to love this. Took hours to charge, download and update because it would get hot. Even when it was set up, everytime I would add a new watchface it would get hot on my wrist and put itself in airplane mode.

I really wanted this watch and I ordered it the 8th of September. Never have received it. I have asked for help to get the same watch but resent to me and now i cant even get the same watch due to the price changing. I ordered on labor day sales for a reason and now im having to get a refund that wont even pay for the watch i ordered. When all i wanted was to have the type of watch. Fedex says the package got lost in transit.
