Ok Watch

Not as great as I thought it would be. It's very basic and after a few months the battery doesn't hold up for more than a couple days.

Rowing

Not so great for rowing; it doesn't automatically stop and start like a stroke coach does. Heart rate is erratic.

I like the features

I received the watch for my birthday. I have had a Garmin 4for many years and I like the new features. Pulse is great and golf has worked well

Great entry level smart / fitness watch with good data. Used primarily for steps and sleep tracking, but also for notifications.

Love it so far!

Really loving it so far. Sleep tracking is really neat, though it seems to struggle with accurate tracking when I’m sick.

Perfect for steps, cardio, and more

Love all the features! Health, sleep, oxygen, stress, steps and so much more. I do not find it super helpful for strength training.

Health assistance

I had a pacemaker put in. I wanted something to give me my heart rate without having to wear a chest strap. This has served the purpose.
