I was specifically looking for a smartwatch to track my steps while getting in shape for an upcoming trip. The location I'm traveling to offers spectacular hikes among other things and I wanted to get an idea for what I can handle (with something that tracks both miles and kilometers). I also wanted something that would allow me to make/ answer phone calls, check text messages and emails etc. I'm also pretty petite so I was looking for a watch that would fit my wrist and not look like I was playing dress-up.
So far I've been really pleased with this watch, it had a nice selection of free watch faces I could select (max of 4 on my watch at any given time). I found it easily tracked my steps, heartrate and stress levels. The older model also offer oxygen saturation but I haven't seen that option on this model. It fits my wrist well, without being too large and offers great batter life.
However, my one big gripe is that this watch is NOT compatible with Signal (the app my family uses to text each other) so I don't get notifications of family texts which is a HUGE bummer for me. I'd also really appreciate the ability to see my oxygen saturation when I'm hiking/ exercising.
Overall I feel like this is a great product for the price and is a watch I'd recommend to someone with similar needs. I really hope the company considers adding Signal to their compatible app list. Otherwise I think this is the perfect watch for me.
