Love how elegant the watch looks and then there is the functionality. Nothing like a smartwatch that not only looks great but works great. Really like the magnetic adjustable wrist band. Keep up the great work
Very nice, just a few quibbles keeps it from being awesome

I have been waiting to purchase an Android smartwatch for a long time. I wear only Skagen time pieces. I have quite a few. I love their simple, but elegant designs and ultra slim profiles. Finally, a relatively thin android watch. But it is not perfect. The magnetic mesh band hype doesn't equate to easy to put on. So I have ordered some other bands. About every 3rd or 4th wear, I lose the ability to use the touchscreen forcing me to have to do a hard power off. Battery life is hardly a day, but it seems to be getting better. And lastly, it is slow. Tap the screen to respond or push a button and the delay is very noticeable. This has caused me to accidentally reply to text messages with a quick response multiple times because I didn't see where it took the command. Other than those quibbles, it is a nice watch that looks smarter than it functions. Maybe the Falster 3 will be much better and thinner yet!
Watch is laggy. Screen doesn't turn on with wrist movement.

Watch looks good but that's about it. It's laggier than my Huawei watch 2 with the same processor. The gyroscope doesn't activate every time when you turn your wrist so you have to tap it. Battery life doesn't last all day if you turn the screen always-on. The magnetic band that came with it keep getting loose. I had to put a different band from a different Skagen watch. I got the Falster 2 for about $65 and it's honestly not worth it at that price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry you are not 100% satisfied with your new watch. A representative has contacted you via email with further information.
The watch is very easy to use. The band is difficult to put on. The worst part is the battery life is it best 8 to 10 hours

Purchased this watch less than a month ago, magnetic clasp already broke. Contacted customer service, they don't carry the watch anymore, I'm either stuck with it or can send it back for a refund. I'm going to attempt to superglue it back together. If it doesn't work, I'll be sending it back.

I use this watch as a daily watch. It does what it says it will do and does it without much hitch. There are 2 things that I do not like though: battery life and bugs. First, the battery life will maybe last a full day... maybe. I recommend turning off the tilt to wake gesture to help save your battery life, and just keep the touch the wake on. I may for a job, so every time I turned the wheel, it turned on my watch and thus slowly killing my battery faster than intended. The bugs are a little harder to manage, because they are random. I think it may be in the software but at times, my watch freezes up when I'm trying to input the pin number to unlock the device. I turn off the device and turn it back on and it seems to return to normal. This happened to me about once every 2-3 weeks. Overall: I still love the device, even for it's kinks. The goods of the device completely OUTWEIGH the bads.
