Buena calidad, llegó en tiempo y los materiales son de buena calidad

Excellent budget watch for the price. I haven’t look for a spotify app since I paired it with my phone and haven’t seen any problem controlling the music from the watch (you need to swipe right on the watch and play the music from that screen to control the music from your phone). Battery life is so far so good In two days of general usage I haven’t gone below 90% (surprisingly good considering the price of watch). Activities will of course eat a little more battery. For cyclist fan you can important a gpx file directly on the watch (tutorials are available on the web). You can important a map directly on the screen of the watch for free and see the area where you walk, run or cycle. Speaking through the watch works fine when receiving a call. Plenty of choice of activities. Bonus point, I like the OS. You can choose your backgroung like in a computer and even get “live background on it”. Metrics from biosensors seems almost accurate eventough not perfect. But you do get a lot of “bang for your buck” considering the price of the watch. Using a silicone bracelet will make it look like a sport watch, using a leather bracelet will be more office usage. Notification are handled correctly (as you can press on the notification to see it or simply ignore it. You can consult your agenda on it, the weather and you get plenty of choice of appliation to install (wherter for location, navigation etc…). The AMOLED is a big plus for those who like smartwatches. The flashlight option makes the screen go white as oppose to a real flashlight. For weight lifters the bug concerning not having the ability to count reps has been fixed by the company recently so it works to save your workout. You can also put your membership cards on it. I haven’t tried the watch at the cashier for payment thought as I don’t like putting the payment options on a watch for security purposes. It’s not perfect but it’s certainly a viable options against higher end smart watch for budget sensitive people.

Punti forti

1. Prestazioni generali eccellenti
L’orologio fa quello che promette: monitoraggio del fitness, sonno, attività multiple (oltre 160 modalità), tutto con fluidità. Il GPS integrato sembra ben calibrato, le mappe con direzioni sono utili, specialmente per chi corre o cammina all’aperto.

2. Autonomia della batteria
Fino a 10 giorni con uso tipico: ottimo valore, specialmente se sei stanco di caricare tutto ogni notte.

3. Display & design
Il display AMOLED è luminoso, leggibile anche in pieno sole, il corpo è ben rifinito; l’aspetto è moderno ma non troppo “tecno”—vale anche come orologio da abito.

4. Resistenza & versatilità
Impermeabile, con tante modalità sportive: nuoto, camminate, bici, palestra; utile se lo usi in modo misto (allenamenti + vita quotidiana).

5. Prezzo
Il prezzo di su Amazon è decisamente competitivo per quello che offre. Ottimo come punto di entrata se vuoi uno smartwatch ben equipaggiato senza spendere una fortuna.

As a past Apple watch wearer, I am loving this new purchase. I prefer the circle face rather than the square/rectangular one of the Apple watch and the quality of the screen is better, in my opinion. I have a small wrist and prefer a larger watch face and this fit the bill perfectly. I’m happy with all of the apps that integrate and only wish that I had the ability to reply to texts from my watch. I’m hoping that will come in a future update.

Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and the price point was perfect for me. The battery life is fantastic and MUCH BETTER than my Apple watch. This will run on a single charge for so much longer than what I was used to. I had to charge my Apple watch every day which was not conducive to wearing at night to track my sleep so I missed out on those details. This charge on this watch allows me to wear it to workout, track steps and keep up with other health stats including all my sleep information.

If you’re looking to try an alternative to a pricey smart watch, I’d suggest giving this one a try.

The Good:
I have worn this watch for 2 months now. I find it to have good accuracy with GPS compared to my Samsung phone. The sleep function seems accurate but I have no real way to verify it. At least it doesn’t give me crazy durations or fail to log sleep like some other watches I have used. The step counter is accurate. The O2 and heartbeat are accurate when compared to my pulse oximeter. It has a lot of built-in features and the app is better than most I have used with a large number of dial faces available. I have all functions enabled and consistently get 6 – 7 days of battery life depending on the amount of time with GPS in use.
The Not so Good:
One nice feature is the AI coupled Zepp Flow that allows you to give voice commands like “set a 5 min. timer” or ask questions about the weather etc. Unfortunately, a firmware update some days ago has broken this feature and it no longer works. Also, the AI feature monitors your steps and decides to begin a workout. It cannot be disabled (as far as I know). It does give you a warning via vibration but this is too weak for me to detect sometimes (I have it on max vibe) so I fail to deactivate it in time. I really have no use for this feature and it annoys me.
Additionally, the morning updates that appear every day are repetitive and basically useless and they also cannot be disabled. For instance ” … it seem you woke up several times last night …” ok thanks I’ll stop doing that.
Conclusion:
I got this watch on Prime Day with $20 off – the price was $80 and I would say it is a good value. It is thin and good looking and has a good band. While I don’t give 5 stars on products unless there are no issues, I can recommend this one.
