Review on πŸ“± CNPGD Smart Watch: An Android & iPhone Compatible Quad Band Unlocked Cell Phone Watch for Men and Women with Touch Screen, Fitness Tracker, Pedometer, and Sleep Monitor by Louis Loebis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great watch for the price; with some quirks

At first I really didn't like the fact that the manual requires a 5 star rating in exchange for an extended warranty, mainly because the manufacturing company seems to no longer exist so the warranty is worth nothing anyway. Still, I don't think you can beat the features of this smartwatch for the price. Setting it up requires a bit of fiddling. DO NOT install the app via the watch's QR code, search Google Play for "simvalley smartwatch" but once set up you have options on which phone notifications to send to the watch. You can also insert an SD card into the battery compartment (watch a YouTube video to learn how), which allows you to play music, videos, and photos directly from the card, as well as using the watch's camera ( i.e. not very well). but functional). The speaker quality is pretty good but not great, great for calls but not perfect for music, the mic is a bit worse but as long as you get the right distance/angle to speak it won't sound like a wind tunnel on the other end . .My main complaints are asking for 5 stars, difficulty finding the right application, and inability to customize the watch the way I want. I'd like to remove the useless QR code from the first screen (and completely rearrange apps), but that's not possible, and watch mode only lets you select 3 watch faces, all of which are analog and not particularly legible. All this to say that this thing is only $13 and has a lot more features than the smartwatch I paid over $100 for a few years ago, so I'm very happy with it.

Pros
  • pretty impressive
Cons
  • negative impression
