Bought this to replace my Samsung Gear S2 as I was looking for something a little more classy but still wanted to get notifications on my wrist. The bluetooth connectivity is not stable at all and even when it is, I almost mover actually get the notification on the watch. I have gone through all of the troubleshooting steps and everything is correct on my Note 8 (not battery optimized, allowed to run in the background). It is a very nice watch and will work fine as a standalone analog, but fails on the smartwatch side.
I have a few smart watched but I hate the screens. It so nice to have a watch that has all the features I care about (auto setting, alarms, and notifications) without the annoying LCD screen. I even had fun watching videos and reading the instructions to figure out how to use it.. Took me like an hour to setup, but it is worth it!
I bought this watch for its simple features such as the call and notifications alert only without needing all that other fancy features that a full smart watch offers. At first I had problems re-connecting this watch to my phone. I notice it would only connect for up to 3 days and it wouldn't re-connect again. This issue can be fixed by un-registering your watch and registering it again which only takes about 15 seconds. To un-register just switch the mode to TME and pull the crown all the way out and the second hand will be placed on the 1 o'clock position. Then hold the top button for 7 seconds and the second hand will rotate clockwise to the 2 o'clock position meaning un-register is complete. Then switch the mode to LTM and push the top button to turn on bluetooth and then back to your phone open up the app and it will ask you to pair and your watch will be connected and registered to your phone again for the next 3 days lol. And I don't mind doing this every 3 days. Its better than having to charge your smart watch everyday :)
Great looking watch and functions just fine, would recommend!
