    OK Watch, band sweats and irritates

    It's ok, not as good or flexible as an Apple Watch, and the sizing seems a bit off. The band sweats way too much though and really irritates the skin.

    I don't like the fact that I have to check my watch every night just to make sure that the battery saver didn't switch on by itself. Some things cannot work it that battery savers is on. Also I don't like the bands being plastic.

    Horrible battery life. I wish i kept my Apple watch. Also, the step count (main reason i have this) is wildly inaccurate. They don't even measure when cutting grass (Apple did!). Another selling feature for me was the ability to track blood pressure. That's a non eyeing feature. Stick with Apple if you're thinking of switching - or a completely differdnt brand !! I wish i saved my box so i could return this but i didn't so now I'm stuck.
