Additionally, you'll get instant notifications, allowing you to check messages, control your music, and navigate effortlessly with intuitive gestures.
The watch has received glowing reviews as well. PhoneArena praised the watch for its notification system and value for money, highlighting its sleek design and impressive battery life. However, iPhone users should be aware - there may be some connectivity issues, as pointed out in their review.
Other reviewers have mentioned occasional bugs, including problems with syncing to health apps. Despite its compact size, the touch display quality of the watch has been highly praised by customers. One satisfied buyer gushed: "Perfect Amazing price. The watch does everything that it says, tracks steps, sleep, heart rate and loads more. Connected straight up with my Samsung. Great battery and great that notifications from phone come through to the watch instead of taking phone everywhere. Very happy"
However, another customer expressed their disappointment over missing features, stating: "In terms of being a smart watch, I find it is quite limited. You get notifications to your watch, can locate your phone, reject calls, read messages and control playback etc. Cannot reply to messages or answer calls".
For those looking for an alternative and willing to spend a bit more, Boots is offering a deal on the Garmin Forerunner 955 at £379 for serious fitness enthusiasts.
