I purchased this last week after pre ordering and waiting for a month. The watch won't connect with the citizen connected app, so basically its unusable.
Bought this for my boyfriend for his bday, and he loves his new watch. Got him Hybrid Watch Gen 2, with the stainless grey and black band.
I used to be a big fan of Citizen watches. My father gave me my first Citizen watch 45 years ago. For the next 20 years, I continued to use Citizen watches. I bought this watch during Christmas time and had high hopes for it. It has a very stylish design and finish, though it is a little heavier compared to regular smartwatches. However, it is not SMART at all. The Citizen watch app must remain open on my phone. Once the app is closed, it disconnects the Bluetooth connection, and it takes a long time and several attempts to reconnect. When the watch disconnects from the phone, I receive no notifications. The step tracking is completely inaccurate. I tested it by sitting down and just swinging my hand, and the watch counted that as steps. The watch display font is too small. The LED light is supposed to turn on by double-tapping, but it often doesn't respond. The customized watch face has very limited options, so I ended up using one of the preset faces by Citizen. Even then, my watch keeps reverting to its basic default face often. I've also experienced the Bluetooth connection with my phone completely resetting for no apparent reason! I had to remove the existing connection and reconfigure the watch as a new device on my phone. Initially, I rated this watch one star. The reason I added another star is because of the battery life. I only need to charge it every other week, and the battery really lasts a long time. Compared to other smartwatches on the market, I think this one has the longest battery life. In conclusion, I bought this watch to test it and see if it could replace my other smartwatches. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this watch to anyone. If buying this watch as a regular watch, it is too heavy. It is absolutely not a replacement or comparable to any market-leading smartwatch.
Nice looking watch at a great price. So far performance have been A+, received 5 days ago. For now i definitively would recommend.
I really appreciate that it has the weight, look and feel of an original watch but also has the Smartwatch Capabilities.
Really like the look and Options on this Citizen smartwatch. Hoping there are more watchmaker to choose from in the near future from Citizen. That would be my only gripe.
Looks great and once registered through mobile could get started programming the watch. Charging was simple and once I adjust band will wear more often.
This is a great watch! I found the setup easy to do and the information it tracks is exactly what I wanted. The only issue I found was that they haven't opened their api so the sleep tracking app I use, Sleep as Android, can interface with the watch. Other than that, it's great. Battery life is excellent as well.
Very nice. It's better than I thought it would be .t8drsy3scytttghhgffggghddhgfgy
I looked around for some time for the type of smart watch that best fit my taste. After I found the citizen hybrid watch I instantly loved the design, but apprehensive about making the purchase. I spent weeks looking at reviews of the hybrid watch. After weighing my options I decided to purchase it, and have been satisfied so far. There are a couple of things that I feel that citizen could do to make the watch better, but it does exactly what they advertise. It's a beautiful time piece that works very well.
Only issue is the light feature activation sucks. Sometimes I have to tap over and over. Button would be better.
