Dial features backlight, multi-function alarm, hourly time signal, and flash alert. It wont just update on it's own as long as the phones near by. Then used a weed trimmer. Received watch loaded app and the app worked ok for about a day and a half. Perfect gift idea for that birthday, holiday or just for fun present. The watch looks and feels great. If you're a seller, Fulfillment by Amazon can help you grow your business.
A built-in 3-axis acceleration sensor begins counting steps the moment you start to walk. I will say the pedometer seems to be a little over sensitive, but that could be just my interpretation. For instance a day I push mowed my yard which takes about 45 minutes. Unfortunately, this item did not fit my needs and I returned it for a different model. Shipping was very quick, and product arrived well packaged. Only down side I have is the auto time update only works if you have the app open at the predetermined update times. The watch face is much darker than the pictures indicate.
I work the overnight shift as a Paramedic and frequently find myself in low light situations. Water resistant up to 200 meters. Get going with your active day with this G-Shock® watch. If you love G-Shocks and want the benefit of a simple step counter with Bluetooth connectivity to your phone, get this watch. I am a G-shock fan, so I was not disappointed in the quality. Sometimes when the watch connects and exchanges data it says I walked very little on a day I know I walked a lot.
The light is bright as are the glowing hands. I was displeased with two aspects. The watch performed as advertised with the mobile app and the Bluetooth connection. And the troubleshooting answer of rebooting the phone doesn't fix the problem. It's on the small side for a g-shock watch but that's a nice change of pace for something that's also a trainer watch. Coming over from a fitbit ionic to this watch is a big transition. A step number level graph at 6 o'clock shows the current step number and the number 1 hour earlier, and a status indicator window in the upper right area of the dial displays the target achievement rate.
It works as a basic tracker of steps, with the addition of many other standard G-Shock functions. This is a smaller watch that will be preferred by many who dislike the large, rugged style of most G-Shocks. This is not a watch for serious fitness tracking. The graph showed that that no steps taken while i was at the gym running on the treadmill for an hour? The 15-hole band is designed to enable fine adjustments. Just open the app plug in all the info you want and hit sync to watch and it's done.
. If time needs to be adjusted just hit the lower right button once and it pairs with the phone and corrects the time real quick. The watch is very minimalistic, but it functions exactly as described. Resin strap with adjustable buckle closure. Its full form is Gravitational Shock. If you want a serous fitness tracker, buy a Fitbit or Garmin.
No setting the time, date, alarms, or world time from the watch anymore. Then it doesnt upload half of the steps i did. Also i found that it was always pulling the hair on my wrist which was a bit annoying. As always Amazon did an amazing job and delivered the product on the day the indicated. The app is super useful and easy to use. Also, the band is much thinner than previously owned G-shocks.
But not a big deal. My issue is the app. After midnight I sync the watch to the app and it claims I did 35 steps. This is not only comfortable, fun, and new, but a style that will bring lots of compliments, while wearing. I also didnt like the analog- digital thing as much as i thought i would.
But overall I couldn't recommend this watch enough. . . . . . .
