Review on Upgrade Your Samsung Gear Fit2 With NotoCity Silicone Replacement Bands In Black-Red, Large Size by John Cox

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The watchband appears well-made, and quality controlled, but . . .

This is an update to my earlier review since this watchband and its replacement both failed. But, read on for more information.This watchband was the proper size and is very comfortable. I like the minimalist appearance of this strap Replacement went smoothly.A brief description of the method of replacement might have been helpful. But, that information was easily found on the Internet, so it turned out not to be a problem.I like the added "inspection" tag. It appears that quality control was important.Now, the problem: Though the band is comfortable and appears well made, less than a month into wearing the band, one of the metal flanges that fasten to the band to the watch pulled loose and the watch fell from my wrist. Nothing had caught and pulled on the watch; I was just walking with my arms swinging naturally. Novocity was good about replacing the watchband, and I received a replacement promptly. I returned the old watchband to them and installed the new one. Now, just three months later, the same thing occurred. While wearing the watch, it spontaneously fell to the ground. One of the metal flanges again had pulled loose. There had been no tugging at the watch, it hadn't caught on my sleeve or anything. It is too bad that an otherwise fine product should have such a deficiency.

Pros
  • Smartwatch Accessories
Cons
  • The black and red color combination may be too flashy for some users
