Works Well
on March 13, 2023
Posted by: RRidge
I have this watch for several weeks and it does everything I expect plus some more. It works much better than the device I was provided for a cardiac therapathy program I recently completed. I wanted to keep track of how I am doing and this device does an excellent job.

Lasted 15 months
on March 15, 2023
Posted by: RGT4000
Purchased in October 2021 and was a faultless watch for 15 months. Now, it randomly dies and cannot be switched on unless it is plugged into a charger. I have tried resetting the watch to no avail. Very disappointed given the price point.

Comfortable watch profile

Has wonderful features and is a very comfortable watch design but could use the charging port cover and screen protector as standard accessories.

Lived less then 2 years!

I've bought them about 2 years ago. Battery seems to become bad: watches randomly shuts off, losing activity and they indicate drastic battery life. In 2 hours it went from 95% to 70.

Solar charging doesn’t work!
on March 27, 2023
Posted by: Tampa Stephen
I wear my watch on the beach in full sun and the battery still drains. The graphics show that I have been in the intense sun but the battery doesn’t recharge. All the other features are great except the main one, which is why I purchased this one.
