Cant complain to much as I did not pay allot for this watch. It's a nice looking watch that actually connects to your phone. Everything works, but the only problems is the bluetooth connection does not work past 50 feet and the system is slow ( lags ).
The watch is beautiful! It's small enough to look good on my tiny wrist, which is a rare thing, and I love that it runs Wear OS. But unfortunately the battery will only stay charged for half the day. If I don't have it charged before I go to bed, I'll wake up with it only having a few percents left if it isn't completely dead. Also, sometimes it won't stay connected to my phone so I can't use Google Assistant all the time. I'm happy with the deal I got on this beautiful watch but if I had to pay full price, I would have given it less stars.
Good looking, but underpowered and low battery capacity

The screen is beautiful with bright clear pixels. The watch body is also elegant and handsome. The 3 buttons on the side work well though the audio controls are very laggy most times. The watch works well when I have the always on display turned off. Otherwise the display zaps too much power and battery won't last even 10 hours. The processor is way underpowered and launching apps or changing screens can take a while with a black screen temporarily, which makes me think the watch has crashed and I end up pressing some buttons to get it to respond. The newer version may be much better and acceptable in battery and performance terms.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The overall look of the watch is very Nice, but that's about it. The operating system is laggy, and the battery life plummets!!! The super fast charging is a joke, I used a Samsung block & it took over 3hrs to charge. Within 5mins of use battery life was at 95%. Thought I'd go the cheaper route & get this. I'll be returning & purchasing a Samsung Smartwatch. Still decided to give Skagen shot, despite the Tech Reviews via YouTube. What a let down.

We appreciate you for this review. We are happy to see how we can help. A representative has emailed you for further assistance.
I'm pretty satisfied with my Falster 2. The price was very good, as it was a special promotion. I wanted black, but it was not available, so I got the gold/blue. Actually the gold has turned into more of a copper, which I actually like better. I would say it's pretty unisex looking. I have an Android phone so I got this model because it has Google Wear. The setup and pairing with my phone took a few tries, but now works fine. Some people complain about the battery life, but I haven't had any problems. I just attach it to the charger when I take it off, much like I do with my phone. The only downside is that if you set a passcode, then you have to key that in every time you wear it again. But it's not a big deal. Bottom line, pretty satisfied. And it comes with a 2 year warranty.
