I wanted a fairly basic watch, simply to be able to tell the time without looking at my phone. This Blackview Smart Watch was perfect for me and the extra strap was certainly a bonus.
Some of the watches that I looked at were only rated to IP67, which is not much more than splashproof. This one is waterproof to 5 atmospheres. enabling me to swim while wearing it.
It has a range of functions that I must admit I have not yet explored as I was really just looking something to show me the time which, by the way, it does perfectly because of being linked to my phone. More important to me is that, despite the low price, it certainly doesn’t look “cheap” and I’m sure people will think I paid much more for it than I did!
Great watch for the money. I’ve had much more expensive one that didn’t work anywhere near as well.
Unfortunately, after a couple of weeks use, I’ve developed a rash on my wrist due to nickel allergy so donating to my son.
This watch is exactly what I was looking for! It connects to my (iPhone) phone by Bluetooth and I can read texts/WhatsApp messages clearly and can see who’s calling without having to hold the phone in my hands!
Does other things but not really interested in steps/heart rate etc.
This is amazing value for the price, pulse and blood ox seem pretty accurate, compared to my proper finger monitor. Also comes with two straps. Step and distance tracing pretty accurate also. I normally have a much more expensive smart watch that is also square shaped and nobody has noticed that this is a replacement 🙂
Recommended, will definitely look at more of this companies products when i am purchasing
I have a Fitbit Charge 5 which I really like, despite some of its foibles. I wanted to keep it in tip top condition, so when I booked a holiday abroad I looked for a cheap watch that I could wear without worrying about it breaking underwater, getting scratched, getting jammed with sand and suncream, or even getting lost etc.
Cheap digital watches don’t seem to exist any more (I always used to have a cheap Casio basic watch for holidays) and the cheapest thing that came up was this watch which also happens to be a smart watch. I wasn’t bothered about the smart functions but at this price point I was happy to buy it for holiday.
2 weeks after returning from holiday and I still haven’t switched back to my Fitbit! This thing is brilliant! The screen is better, it’s more responsive, it’s perfectly waterproof, and it’s comfortable.
The pros over the Fitbit are as follows:
1. You can adjust screen brightness – big deal in sunny weather
2. You can adjust how long the screen stays active when woken – another simple but brilliant feature
3. The battery life is at least as good if not better
4. You can control music on your phone (massive plus)
5. The app breaks down your step count and shows when you achieved them throughout the day, rather than just giving total steps for the day. Another cool feature.
I have checked out the heart rate and step monitor and both are as accurate as the Fitbit.
The oxygen thing looks dodgy, but I’m not interested in that. I’m not interested in the sleep monitor either so can’t really comment on that.
For my needs though (steps, heart rate, a good watch with a great screen, and music control) this is brilliant. I have no idea how they pump it out at this price point, so as long as it’s not made in a sweat shop i can highly recommend it.
FYI, I have NOT been asked to write this review and there is no incentive for me to do so.
My watch wasn’t working when it arrived and after a short video proving it was faulty to Blackview customer support, I was sent a new watch without hesitation. I dealt with Sally, who was brilliant .
First class service, well done Blackview!
You cannot get the app Gloryfit on an iPad but luckily i have a phone so it didn’t bother me but for kids who would like this watch who don’t have phones, i don’t entirely recommend that.
I wanted a simple and cheap watch that would ensure I wouldn’t miss work notifications when I was away from the desk. A previous cheap watch looked promising, but didn’t allow sending notifications from apps outside a pre-determined list. This one allows me to add Slack, Outlook and Teams to the list, meaning I get everything I need.
Very comfortable secondary cloth strap is a lovely bonus as well.
This is a basic smart watch, it does everything i need it to. Long battery life and quick charge. Have taken 1 star off as it packed up when i went sea swimming, luckily this happened within a year and i managed to get a refund. I’ve actually ordered another one but definitely wont go swimming with it on.
I’ve owned a very fancy, expensive Fitbit – it was glitchy and some of their services on the app need a monthly subscription. I can’t believe how good this little tracker is for 20! Seems very accurate so far, responds fast and doesn’t glitch, the app is fantastic. Bought another for my son and will buy more for gifts!
My first smart watch. Only wanted one for to count the daily steps, monitor heart rare and sleep. Just a perfect little watch for all in one.
Great screen resolution, not too big, not too small. Lightweight. Perfectly working together with my phone application.
If you don’t want or need a full smart phone with all the apps etc this watch is a great choice.
Highly recommend this product!
