WYZE Smart Watch, 1.4"(44mm) Smart Watches for Women and Men, Activity Fitness Tracker for Android Phones and iOS Phones, IP68 Waterproof, Menstrual/Blood Oxygen/Heart Rate/Sleep Monitor

Wish I could talk on it

Good for basic smart watch. Nice to control Wyze devices but need your phone close. The 47C was big for me. In general features for the price. Good health monitoring but I finally decided to go for a different brand.

I bought this watch for my mother. She's not a tech person by any means so the simplicity of the wyze is why I went with it. The watch functions and works as it should. It's asthetically a nice looking watch. My mother likes it a lot. The only gripe as I stated my mom isn't a techie and the watch becomes unsynched fairly often and this is bothersome because she can't figure out how to get it connected so I have to pick up the slack. For a reg user this wouldn't be an issue but for us it's a small headache in an otherwise solid device.

The bad:It counts my crocheting as steps, I suppose because of the movement of my hands. Presumably other, similar actions are recorded as steps.The weather app is terrible. The current temperature is almost always off by five to ten degrees.You cannot wake the watch by tapping it, but raise to wake doesn’t work very well.The watch has a tendency to freeze and has to restart.If you turn it off at night the step count doesn’t reset and carries over to the next day even though the hourly counts remain accurate.Bluetooth often disconnects, though I can’t say if the watch or my phone is actually at fault.The good:I wanted an inexpensive and simple watch that would record my step count when I’m not carrying my phone. I also like the heart rate function and was surprised to learn that only the latest Apple Watch measures blood oxygen, even though this very inexpensive watch has that function. The watch also receives text messages when it is connected to my phone, which is convenient. Bottom line, if you can’t afford something better, or you just want to track steps and heart rate, the WYZE watch will do the job. But I’m guessing there is another watch out there that will do a better job for only a little more money.

**Updated***After having this watch for exactly 1 year, I've amended my review. There are some serious 'lacking' smartwatch features. If smartwatch features are a secondary concern for you, this watch is probably the way to go at this price. However, if smartwatch features are a primary consideration for you, you're better off spending between $100-$200 and getting a Ticwatch or Fossile Wear OS watch. See the CONS section for my biggest issues with the watch.PROS- Great price- Looks premium- Bright Screen- Basic smartwatch functionality; notifications viewable (only) on watch, weather, fitness featuresCONS- No stopwatch?! (This was such a basic feature, I didn't even assume it WOULDN'T be included)- Alarms are inconsistent, which is dangerous. They do not always go off when intended, but it only seems to occur for Alarms that are created and kept for at least a few days. I believe rebooting the watch every 2-3 days helps mitigate this issue.- Connections with the Wyze app. It feels like once every few days I check the weather and there is no data. I then have to go into the Wyze app and bring up the watch to force a synchronization. Sometimes I have to reboot the watch entirely.
