Premium quality, but inexpensive smartwatch with tons of features and huge battery life
The media could not be loaded. This smartwatch cost a shade under £80 at the time I purchased it. When I was reading the reviews and looking at some of the pictures the reviewers posted of it, I thought that it looked absolutely huge, and wasn't sure I wanted something that big strapped to my wrist. However, I decided to chance it and went ahead with the purchase anyway. To my relief, the watch is not the size of the Big Ben clock - don't get me wrong, it's pretty chunky, but it's not too obtrusive on your wrist.The watch feels really well put together, with a nice metal case, and despite the case being metal, the watch still feels very light and you don't feel that you have a dead weight strapped to your wrist. The screen quality is exceptional - crisp, bright and one advantage of its greater size, big and easy to read.It took me a few goes to hook it up to my phone via Bluetooth - this was largely due to not entirely understanding some of the menu options on the phone, and there are no instructions (that I could see) to explain what the various icons mean. There is one menu, when you swipe down from the main watch face, that has a telephone handset icon on it. If it's grey and you tap on it, it turns green, and I believe that this enables Bluetooth on the watch to pair it with your phone. Each time I did this, there was no issue connecting the watch inside my phones Bluetooth settings. Once connected to Bluetooth, there is a little menu option where you can make calls from the watch and have up to 15 contacts stored on the watch itself. I decided to test how usable this feature is, and found that the call audio quality from the watch itself is surprisingly good, and the people to whom I was speaking told me that the call quality at their end was excellent. Pretty impressive. (Just one note to say that if you use the watch to make and receive a lot of calls, the battery life will be reduced much faster).The watch has *lots* of different options for measuring the usual like step count, heart rate, calories burnt, etc., but also has options for blood oxygen level, stress level, sleep monitoring, etc. It has different menus to set goals for different types of exercise like running, cycling, walking, mountaineering(!), etc. However, the goals for each seem to be the same - time, calories and distance. I guess the benefit of this is that you can set separate goals for each type of exercise rather than having one size fits all.There is a useful torch on the watch, that whilst not really bright enough for nighttime walking through the dark woods, is really useful if you're having trouble getting the key in the front door lock when staggering home late in the evening after a heavy session down the pub! The light can also be made to flash like a strobe, which could be useful in an emergency situation if you wanted to broadcast your location in the dark. Also, the watch has a compass that seems pretty accurate once it's been calibrated, which you do by following the instructions on the screen and waving your wrist (with the watch strapped on, obviously!) in a horizontal figure of eight motion.Finally, the battery life. Due to its size, this watch has (for a watch) a huge battery. However, I think the stated 30-day battery life is a tad optimistic (a bit like the manufacturer's MPG figures for a petrol/diesel car or WLTP range figures for an EV - they're only achievable in "lab" conditions). That said, the battery life on this watch is still hugely impressive. When I received the watch, it was 93% charged, so I didn't bother charging it up to 100%. I am writing this review 7 days after receiving the watch, and it has been switched on and mostly on my wrist for the entirety of that 7 days. The battery level of charge is currently 56%, so it's possible that 15, maybe even close to 20 days of battery life are achievable, depending how heavily you use the functions on the watch, have the torch on, have the screen on, etc. (e.g. as stated earlier, using the phone feature a lot will reduce the battery runtime significantly).In summary, I think that for the money, this smartwatch is a fantastic piece of kit. The equivalents from the likes of Apple, Samsung, Garmin, etc. will be several times more expensive than this watch, and will they have significantly more functionality? I don't know the answer to that, but what I do know is that this watch, to me, is excellent value for money.EDIT: 6th May 2025 - this watch is still working extremely well just over 6 months after I purchased it. I wear it all day, every day, and I've had no issues with it. (I sincerely hope that's not the kiss of death now I've said that!) In the 6 months or so I've had it, I've only had to charge it a handful of times, meaning that a 20-30 day battery life is real-world in my experience. The price of the watch has now come down to £45, and, at the time of writing this, there was a voucher promotion for an extra £15 off. For £30, this watch is a no-brainer.

Amazing !!
This watch is amazing for the price. So easy toSet up with an iPhone, the battery has dropped 25% in 3 days but I have been using a lot even to make phone calls! The speaker could do with being a bit louder but don’t know if I’m expecting too much from a watch. I would highlyRecommend this watch to anyone, the torch is so handy to use as well. The box comes with two straps a fabric strap and a normal rubber strap.I have bought another one for a friends birthday I have been that impressed! not sure how waterproof it is as it states only being ‘water resistant’ that said I have worn it in the shower twice and it’s been fine afterwards.

Worth the money, wait and see durability
The media could not be loaded. I have a similar watch to this already in fact they look very very similar so I have plenty to compare this watch too, I like the style, it's very lightweight, while it doesn't seem as robust as my other watch this one does have 1 extra feature that being the flash light, the light works perfectly and is bright, the operation of the watch features and connection to a mobile via the app are simple, I like the fact it comes with 2 decent straps, and the price is good for what your getting, the only issues I have are the lack of watch faces in general and finding one that I actually like, compared to my other watch that has many many more to choose from, and my other concern is durability, my other watch that is almost identical as been put through the ringer, it's been accidentally hot with a hammer, took a swim in a pond, been bashed and banged and there isn't a mark on it, this watch is going to be a wait and see I guess, it definitely doesn't seem as durable but I could be wrong, looks and feels can be misleading sometimes. IV given 4 stars just because of the lack of choice with the watch faces. This is definitely worth the 21 squid I got it for even if it only last a year.

Fantastic for the money.
What a great smart watch for the money, it does everything you'd expect from a smart watch costing way more. The watch is a bit boxy but I can live with that as the battery life is great. It is very easy to set up and is easy to set the watch faces to your chosen one.It has lots of smart health features: exercise reading, steps, calories burnt, heart rate, CO2 reading, stress reading etc.It also has a calculator, compass and built-in torch. All in all it's a great watch.

Watch don't work
The watch connected to the downloaded app for one day after that it failed to do so. I attempted to get a replacement or my money back from the supplier, but they continously asked me to reset the watch and rei stall the app, despite this not working, thus proving the watch was broken they have still not offered an alternative to the broken watch.
