I honestly wasn't expecting much out of this watch. Any smart watch that you can get for $20 probably isn't going to be that great.
As everyone else has been saying, most of the readings on the watch are very inaccurate. I was really just looking for something to tell time & count steps. After running 3 miles on a treadmill, but the watch only registering that I went around half that distance, I figured "well at least it tells the time".
About a week after buying the watch, I'm out and somebody asks the time. I look at my watch and respond. Someone else responds it's 3 minutes earlier than the time I gave. My 1st instinct was to think they were wrong, but after comparing to my phone, I realize that within a week of syncing the time, the watch has already become 3 minutes fast and needed to be synced again. A watch that fails to even tell time correctly is useless.
Putting all of that aside, the ui on the watch is horrible. There are 10 different screens to display different measurements (all of which are inaccurate) and can only be advanced forward. If you accidentally tap the watch an extra time (such as when you turn your wrist towards you and because of the delay, you aren't sure if the feature to wake the watch activated or not, so you tap it as its in the process of waking), it requires an additional 10 taps just to try to see what you originally meant to. The app doesn't even allow you to remove any items from this excessively long cycle.
