Great value for money, easy to set up.

I have had this watch two weeks now. It’s a lovely watch, but I’ve knocked a star off the rating because the alarm on it, even on the strong setting, is not strong enough, unlike my previous watch. Also I love the metal strap, but it is a nightmare to fasten. I could change it to the silicone one, but the metal one makes it look a more classy piece. Otherwise this is a lovely watch, with a good price tag.

I am profoundly deaf so I needed a way to know when somebody rang my mobile or sent a text. I have been using the watch for three months now and it does everything I had hoped for and more.I have been able to program the watch's settings, via the GloryFit app on my phone, so that it alerts me whenever I receive a phone call, a text, an email, or messages from WhatsApp or Messenger. It also tells me who I have received the messages or calls from, which is helpful.I also use it as an alarm clock to wake me up in the morning, another helpful extra for someone who is deaf. It does this well and, despite me being quite a deep sleeper, the vibrations are strong enough to wake me.I have no proper way of verifying how accurate it is at measuring my heart beat, blood pressure, oxygen levels, steps etc but it seems to do most of these well. I tried counting my steps and then seeing how this compared to what was recorded on the watch and the two seemed to match. The length of sleep seems to match. I also compared the heart beat reading on my watch with my cousin's £300 Fitbit watch and the readings on both watches were identical which tends to suggest that it is at least doing as good a job as the expensive watch. I suspect though that its blood pressure readings aren't very accurate.I was pleased to discover that there are about 150 different watch faces to choose from, allowing me to choose one I really like. The photograph shows the one I chose. There are only five faces to choose from on the watch itself but others can be viewed and downloaded to your watch via the app on your phone.Some people said their watches stopped working or lost their connection.I have been using my watch for 3 months now without problems.From time to time I do find that the watch does temporarily lose its connection. This seems to happen if my phone is switched off for a long time, or if my phone is a long way away from the watch for over two hours. I do not believe that it is due to a fault with the watch, as the watch is continuing to function well and it can be reconnected quickly and easily whenever necessary.All you have to do if you suspect your watch is disconnected is to look for 'Connected devices' using your phone's 'Settings' app. Tap on P66(ID-78FQ) and then if necessary tap the word 'Connect'. The phone and your watch should immediately connect, although sometimes you need to switch your phone off and then on again to complete the connection. Once it is connected the connection should remain steady and the watch will function perfectly all day and all night until you do something such as switch your phone off for a long period. My watch once stopped working properly when the contacts on the back of the watch got sticky with soap. The solution then was to wipe down the back of the watch with a clean cloth.

I purchased this smart watch at a very low price, and I’m pleasantly surprised by its performance. The functionality is excellent, with a battery life that lasts over a week, which is impressive. The step count is accurate, as is the heart rate monitor. The design is good, a little chunky, and I love that you can choose from various watch faces to suit your style.However, I’ve encountered one issue. When I open any audio apps, like music or videos on my phone the sound automatically plays on the watch instead of my headphones or phone, and there’s no option in the settings to change this. Other than that, it’s a great watch for the price!Just remember, you get what you paid for!

I bought this as an attempt to get some kind of track on health trends as I was interested to see which forms of exercise did the most for me. The manual tells us repeatedly not to trust the readings for medical purposes, but I'd go further and say that with the possible exception of blood oxygen readings, which are fairly accurate, the rest is utter nonsense. I don't think it is the fault of this particular watch, but of low-cost "fitness bands disguised as watches" in general. A friend (a personal trainer) described these generically using a term that sounds like Fitbit, but isn't, which is about right.The idea that a BP reading can be taken by this thing is unlikely even at best, since the watch can't exert pressure on the blood vessels, but this keeps putting out virtually identical readings despite my actual BP changing throughout the day, measured by a proper medical cuff. I've no idea what it thinks it is reading, it's more likely to be providing random values on the basis of my entered height, age, and weight values. So, cancel the BP option - one less feature.The blood oxygen is closer, but again we have medical stuff in the house that is at least GP grade, and it tends to be off, although it's measured at the wrist and the pulse oximeter measures it in a fingertip.The heart rate function actually seems to be the best of the options, always quite close to the HR measured by our pulse oximeter.The sleep monitor is just hilarious. While I have to believe its impressions when I'm actually asleep - not being conscious enough to double-check and all, I'm resolutely informed at 8am that I'm in fact still asleep and have been for the past 90 minutes, when I've had breakfast and such things. I like a slow start to the day as much as many people do, but that's taking things a bit too far. Perhaps I've taken sleepwalking to a new level, sleep breakfasting. I can also apparently do Wordles and Sudokus in my sleep. MENSA will be thrilled.So what else can it do other than measure heart rate, which so far is all we have?I can link it to my phone and can use it to answer/screen calls. Big whoop, unless you enjoy wandering around town tapping your wrist and talking into thin air like an unpaid extra in a low-budget sci-fi movie.It can measure your activity in exercise routines, such as indoor walking (what? To the fridge?), outdoor walking (it's been known...), rowing machines (ours - JTX Flow - has a device that is already working that out for us and getting far more plausible values for calories burned etc), and a whole host of other activities. It seems to be a jack of all trades, and master of none. Everything to everybody. Please buy me for all my inaccurate and pointless features.There's one thing it does quite well. It can tell the time and get a sketchy weather prediction off the internet through your phone. And you can find out what day it is.So, to sum up, you can buy this or any other budget smart/fit/watch and get yourself a clock, a calendar, an idea of the weather right now (we have windows, right?), and a fair impression of our heart rate, measured every so often. And it will give you about 60 hours of runtime before needing to be recharged, when the watch is new. Even at £25 this isn't really worth having, and a return is underway, as "not fit for purpose".I came into this purchase with few illusions, or so I thought. I knew and had been told that everything is a guide at best. Truth is, its not even that. It's a distraction, and one more likely to promote hypochondria than health, or worse, lull you into a false sense of security.I wanted to like it, to warm to it, but even at £25 it's sucking up a little power to achieve very little in return. Perhaps if I was inundated with phone calls when on the move, it would at least spare me from fishing out my phone.Don't expect any device costing this little, of any "brand", to do a sensible job. The innards are probably all manufactured in the same one or two factories in China, dressed up differently externally, and flogged en-masse to hapless customers around the world. For the few features that actually get close to usable, you could probably get something more useful by simply saving your money.
