Missing VO2 Max!
on January 16, 2022
Posted by: Nicky910
For everything this watch does, why the heck does it not do V02 Max? My Vivosports at least do that. For the price point, this should have included V02 max!

Functions as Expected

I use this wearable to track my daily activity’s. I’ve used it on several hiking trips and have been very satisfied. Battery life is adequate, and I charge it weekly. In my opinion that’s good considering the daily use I put it through.

Complex user interface
on January 17, 2022
Posted by: Bob S.
This watch has all of the features that I wanted but after a month I’m still frustrated by a complex user interface. Both the watch and the various websites that it interacts with seem much more complex than necessary. I don’t find any of the connection or processes intuitive.
When I get it to do what I want, it works great.

Very happy with the watch.
on January 17, 2022

I chose this watch as a personal Christmas gift/reward for achieving a personal goal that I had long put off around my health. I could not have picked a better product, in my opinion. Though a bit overwhelming at first, as I have become more familiar with it's programs and capabilities, the more I am confident that I won't be in the market for another smart watch anytime soon.
