Review on CUBOT Waterproof Bluetooth Smartwatch Compatible by Ronny Welch

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I would NOT buy again.

At first the watch didn't seem bad. This is a regular smartwatch and that's fine. I'm on the road for work all the time. It doesn't update time zones automatically, but the easiest way to set it to the correct time zone is to turn it off and on again. Another issue relates to the wrist rotation feature. It works well for a few hours and then stops illuminating your face when you turn your wrist to check the time. In order for it to work properly, you need to use the app and turn it on and then off. Another problem is that you have to use an app to set the alarm. The sleep monitor failed to detect two nights of sleep. The sports tracker is not good. It starts and stops with vibration and when you finish your workout it says "No data". Just unnecessary annoyance. The look of the watch is pleasant, as is the feel. Notifications seem to work fine for my SMS messages and GMail. The HR monitor seems acceptable, as does the pedometer. The battery also seems to be good so far. It is likely that I will buy a better Garmin or Apple Watch. A good Timex or Casio is more durable and doesn't need to be charged.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
