Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great watch for the price but don't buy it for the pool swim sport mode

I'm a bit disappointed with this sporty watch but I still think it deserves 4 stars. I think this watch is great value for money. You get a fast-charging watch that lasts a week or more. Most sport modes work well, e.g. B. cycling, running and walking. I haven't tried them all yet. I like the display and have a positive attitude towards messages from my phone. All other functions are fine, the only thing I'm not happy with is the only reason I chose this watch. I wanted to replace my other sports watch with a pool swim watch. This watch has this mode but I couldn't get it to record my laps all the time. I got close once, but mostly, after 22 minutes in the pool, I was getting distances like 150 yards, 300 yards, 400 yards. I should see about 1000 yards per swim. Only once has he recorded 880 yards. I can pace the pool most of the time and never log any strokes or yards. At least the clock is moving so I know how long I've swum. Most of the time it's just a timer. I should have been careful as there is no GPS. How is this watch supposed to know how far I've walked without GPS? Maybe I'm just not using it properly. If I don't find out soon, I'll probably buy another watch next year.

Pros
  • Download the 'Zeroner' app to connect: you can receive and read up to 10 messages or calls on the watch. (Calls or messages cannot be answered). To be more human oriented, you can set the vibration mode and cycles in the vibration reminder. This smart watch also supports alarm, schedule, compass, music control and remote camera.
Cons
  • Fading
