After ditching my Apple Watch (too fussy!) and regretting giving away my Fitbit, I took a chance on this budget-friendly fitness tracker. Here’s the real tea.

What I Love: The battery life is a game-changer—6-7 days with heavy use! My Apple Watch needed daily charging, so this is liberating. The 1.47-inch HD screen is crisp, and swapping watch faces (100+ options!) keeps it fun. Unexpected bonus? It vibrates for calls and app notifications (yes, even iOS!), which I didn’t expect at this price.

Workout Buddy: Used it for running and yoga—auto-tracks heart rate, calories, and distance. GPS syncs with my phone for route maps. The sleep data surprised me; seeing my deep/light sleep breakdown made me fix my bedtime routine.

Annoyances: Setup was confusing AF. The manual might as well be hieroglyphics. Also, step counts can be wonky (walked 10K steps but it showed 8.5K?). Not a dealbreaker but annoying if you’re step-obsessed.

Final Verdict: For under $50, it’s a steal—IP68 waterproof, long battery, and solid health tracking. Just don’t expect Apple-level polish.
