Got one for Argos and first impressions are good.Used it when cycling and also used my garmin edge and the results output were nearly exactly the same.

Hr monitor is good as long as the watch is well positioned on the wrist

Smart features are good but never had a smart watch to compare against

Mines on 55% after 5 days, not used the GPS though as have a dedicated bike computer.Pretty impressive though.

Battery life is impressive 5 days on one walk for an hour and 2 hour cycle and it would be around 25% happy with that as it is connected to my phone most of the day

I ordered one to collect at Argos, had to go away with work for a couple of days so missed my collection window, now they don't have stock anywhere near me that I can see or home delivery.... annoying as I have a £100 Argos voucher.

I was thinking about giving one of these a go coming from the Apple Watch, ex owners are you still happy with your change ?

Jazz Monkey Jr Publish time 2-12-2019 06:33:55

I changeda week or so ago. The only think I was disappointed about was the screen which looks terrible compared to the Apple Watch but I'm used to it now, looks great on daylight but at night looks poor due to being LCD but that's why it's got great battery life. I like the fact it can track my sleep properly as I never need to charge it at night, just charge for an hour or 2 every week. Also it has built in GPS but I don't really use that as I have a bike computer. Much better than the Apple Watch if you want to use jt for fitness and still get notifications on it. The Apple Watch was always too slow as responding anyway when trying to use apps although is good and replying to messages which you can't do on the Garmin.
Overall better than the Apple Watch and I'm keeping mine.
