I am really enjoying my new smart watch. I love the look as it's very classy and modern. It fits well and has a nice weight to it. It was very easy to set up and really has all the features I want and need.
Very nice watch, feels very well built. It has a large, bright and very clear screen. The watch also has a full set of sensors (barometer, accelerometer, gyroscope, heart rate monitor, GPS) as well as wifi and bluetooth connectivity, speaker and microphone. It comes with a magnetic USB charger that snaps onto the back of the watch case, which is very convenient. However, an power adapter is not included. Luckily I had a spare one. 100% charge was reached in less than an hour. Also, I managed to set up the watch and pair it to my phone (iPhone) in a very short time. The instructions are pretty easy to follow and quite straightforward. As with any new technology, there's a learning curve, so give yourself a few days to master it all. Now 2 things I wish had been better. First, the heart rate monitor. As a runner I was looking forward to using it but to get an accurate pulse I have to strap it tight to my wrist which is inconvenient especially when you want to track your heart rate throughout a run. I ended up disabling the feature. Which brings me to my second flaw: battery life. Out of the box, the battery drains quickly. Depending on the features you enable, the battery can last between 6 hours and up to 2 days. The fewer features you use, the more battery life you'll have. Battery settings are critical and you can choose between different modes. I strongly encourage you to explore this part and only enable the features you actually use. Overall, I'm happy with the Citizen CZ Smart and recommend it. Beautiful watch, well built, with lots of features and easy to use.
I have had and still have, several watches in my collection. This one is my 7th Citizen and 5th smart watch. Craftmanship is absolutely wonderful. If you are looking for a lot more class and style with tech in a watch, this should be at the top of your list. The band is stunning, the face is truly Citizen for sure. Now, unlike the intuitive UI Watch OS that is used by Samsung, this Wear OS is a bit behind personally. Battery life if you are as active as I am you will not be happy with. This is not your take it to the gym and daily activities smart watch. This is more of a dinner, business styling, events wearing piece. If I had to pick a smart watch for style with tech, this is your watch; if you are looking for active tech in a fairly stylish watch, this one is about 4th place in my book. Regrets? None; I have the other tech watches to go with my full daily activities, I needed this for the tech with Style.
Everything but the battery is great. I could not get through a full day without recharging. If they upgrade to Snapdragon 4100, I will buy another one.
I gift this watch. It’s look nice but it’s battery timings is not good like 12 hours .when I bought I thought it’s battery will one day but it’s not doing well

This was a gift for my husband. He loves it. He’s very pleased.
Disappointing operating system and poor battery life

Average smart watch features and the metal band is very cheaply made . Overall all this watch barely ranks average on the rating scale
Bought watch Saturday from Amazon, returned the next day. Only thing I liked was the look, Battery didn't last as described. Did not stay connected to my iPhone. Had to start the whole process again to reconnect. Too much aggravation for money. My recommendation, save your money and don't buy it.
