From the brand
I ordered this as an Xmas gift for my daughter, as one I’d previously bought off eBay was rubbish.
She’s really pleased with it, and loves all the features, plus it comes with two straps.
I’d recommend this product to other people looking for a budget smart watch.
This watch is cost effective, looks trendy and was easy to pair. I love the app and all the features offered. There are many watch faces to choose from, lots of seasonal ones as well.
After not receiving 1st watch. I ordered again and glad I did it’s a cracking watch. Not sure about the accuracy of heart and step counter. But it is a great size full face .Great colour pixel. Worth the money.
ENTER…..THE BLACKVIEW!
From the start it was easy to set up and get started. The battery last about a month, even now at almost a year of use. The watch faces are good enough and I always find something i like. It measures accurately, syncs ok, survives multiple bashes and drops, and generally does the job well!! Most importantly, after 10 months of use AND swimming classes twice a week, ITS ABSOLUTELY FINE!!!!!! This watch gives what it says! I’ve managed to buy some nice straps for it too!!!
The app is a bit temperamental lately, but I’m wondering if it needs an upgrade.
Overall, I’d never go back now. These watches perform 1000 better than Samsung and iPhone watches for about 10% of the price!!!
I don’t have the money to get a new one.
So I looked for a smartwatch that had the amenities I was used to – sleep tracker, text notifications, flashlight, timer, alarm- for a decent price.
I chose this one because it came with two straps.
I also like the option to upload your own picture for a face.
Pros- the fabric strap is much better than the plastic one and reminds me of my Fitbit straps. It’s got the amenities I wanted plus some extras like blood pressure and body temp. It’s not a lot of money. It connects to my iPhone. I have a super cute watch face.
Cons- it’s not super accurate. You can’t edit anything (ie you know you slept 8 hrs with 1 hr hanging in bed but it says you slept 9 hrs) . The timer only has its own options preset into it (1,5,10) so you can’t really do a 7min timer etc.
It’s a great stopgap and it does the job for now. However I will be getting a Fitbit versa when I have the money and this will be my spare.
I did quite a bit of research before buying and had a 30 budget so this fitted
Positives – the pink rubber strap is quite comfy – I thought it might be sweaty but it is very supple with a slight soft texture and looks more expensive than it is. There is a second strap and clips (see photo to snap it on and off)
The app is very easy to follow – I have android – I spent a lot of time setting up the app just how I wanted it. What I liked was that the permissions were set to off as default and you choose what you share. Changed the watch face which is a nice touch.
Battery loss about 15 – 20 % per day but very quick to charge and the magnetic charger just easily snaps to the back(the right way around)
Waterproof – I have been swimming and showered with it no issues. – I don’t press the side button but the touch watch face still works with dry-ish fingers.
FIND my phone – great – I am one of those people who has not actually lost their phone it is in the room/car/office but I can’t quite remember where I put it. In Bluetooth range it connects you press a button and it rings your phone even on silent. Then you take you phone out of your coat pocket and get on with your life. – A great add on would be if I could buy a key fob that worked with the watch
Negatives
It does count some hand movements as steps but not a lot – my husbands watch was 7 times the price and still gets things wrong so I am fine with it.
Health tracking seems to follow ok but the temperature alarm did not do anything.
I wish the switch on when you lift your arm would be a little less reactive at night. It is too bright and distracting-maybe change to a wrist flick/double arm lift at night.
I would buy it again and recommend to a friend.
