Design

The way the face of the watch blends in with the strap is seamless and great for those who want a modest looking watch but packs a lot of features. It can fit many different individuals with different wrist sizes, however, some may find it uncomfortable when it is too snug on their wrists. This is because the charging connector at the bottom of the watch has a cut out which could pinch on your skin. Charging the watch isn’t hard but it is not an ideal way of charging due to the clip-like charger’s design.

Automatic Exercise Recognition

The watch is intelligent in sensing if you are exercising. There may not be enough modes to match your exercise routine but once you start exercising with the watch, it will automatically track. There is no GPS built in to the watch and it relies on the phone’s GPS signal once paired. The watch continuously tracks your heart rate. Amazingly enough, the watch still manages to last for at least five days on a single charge. A summary of exercises and heart rates throughout the day can be found in the app once it syncs with the watch.

Smartwatch Wannabe

Once it pairs to your smartphone, every notification your phone gets will be sent to the watch too. Any type of text notifications such as WhatsApp messages and email can be read from the watch clearly. However, you can only reply with predefined texts from the app which you can choose to add your own texts. The watch notifies phone calls only and you can choose to accept or dismiss the call. It comes with Fitbit Pay which stores your payment information using the app and all it takes is a swipe on the watch for the scanner at the counter to scan your watch.
