I have a Gen 1 Touch. Love it. It's better than my Pixel watch and Galaxy watch. Easy to use, responsive, easy to read.

I have been wearing this for 2 months now and it's boosted my productivity. Not in the way I initially thought it would. The technology around learning my chronotype has helped me boost overall productivity in my day. I have never seen anything like this before. After a little getting used to, I am slowly shifting my patterns to adjust to the watch recommendations. Outside of that, battery life is a small factor but if I don't mess with the watch much I can get through a workday without a recharge. I also like the way I can customize my watch face to match my mood and I don't look like I am wearing a box on my wrist either. People are always commenting on how cool it looks.
Let me just start by saying that I bought this watch about 2 weeks ago and I was initially skeptical about the IBM Watson and YouQ claims. However after using the watch i'm honestly blown away with it. This thing is so sweet, my other Smartwatches are only able to record my stats: steps, sleep etc.. which is cool, but it doesn't interpret the data in a meaningful way. This IBM Watson stuff in the YouQ app is incredible, after about a week of wearing the watch it has started to build what's called a "chronotype" that predicts energy levels and alertness, so that as my day progresses, I can see what my body is likely to do and get methods to counteract the fatigue or feelings of low energy. Just too cool. On the technical side; Pairing was relatively easy and I've had no connection issues. The battery holds enough power that with my usage I only have to charge the watch while I do my morning routine, then, pop it on before I go out the door and I consistently have enough power to last until the next morning. The software on the watch is snappy and responsive, and the polyurethane strap is very confortable, soft, yet firm. I really like that they're quick-release too so I can put whatever I want on it without needing tools. Good job Citizen, colour me impressed, 5 stars - A Happy Camper
I've had it for a month. I like : + The idea of YouQ software with IBM and NASA. That's the only reason I bought this watch compared to all the smartwatches out there. It could be better: - "Google Fit", "Wear OS Google", "CZ Smart YouQ" and "Citizen Connected" MUST work together / MUST be synchronised at the same time. Or better yet, one app that does it all... - The "1-3 days battery life", the reality is less than 24 hours. A solar watch could be nice! - The "Power Fix" are great recommendations. Why not add recommendations for the heart, for blood pressure and better sleep. - Alexa is a nice touch. But a Google Assistant could be interesting. - If I worked with NAZA and IBM, I would make sure that the end result was 100%, BEFORE selling this watch that has so much potential.

I bought this watch more than a week ago, and there are several problems. I cannot download the Citizen Connected App, as per the instructions. I then downloaded the Wear OS App and even with this, this product (I cannot call this a smartwatch anymore) cannot sync with my mobile (Samsung Galaxy Flip 3 5G).
This is my second citizen smart watch and I have several eco drive watches. This watch just based on battery life is a huge fail, full charge does not last a day and has to be charged as soon as I get home from work. I will be contacting custo.er service today to return the watch.
I’m very disappointed for a citizen watch you would have thought it would be outstanding. Can’t turn on any of the features or the battery will go dead. It’s awe full I am so disappointed. I have tons of smart watches and this one looks the best but is the worst.
Nice watch, but would not connect to my new iPhone. Returned it to Citizen.
One month after warranty expired, it stopped working all together. Not happy!

I got the watch back in May, the battery issues haven't been for me, happy with that, but it has a mind of it's own, changes power states for no reason and my main issue is, even though all the advertising says it's compatible with iOS and will notify text messages on the watch, I've never been able to get it to work, and there is nothing out there to say how. Citizen, does it work, or not? I get my phone calls, but not my text messages. If I could get my text messages, I would really like the watch, but as it is, I'm going to have to replace it as that's a not unreasonable requirement. Can some one please confirm if is does, and if so how?
Citizen Response
This watch doesn’t respond to the description on the website. The battery lasted less than 8 hours vs 24+ on the instructions. That is why I returned this watch.
Poor battery life, app lags behind competitors and not as user friendly as other smart watches
Watch does not perform as advertised. The power score doesn't show on the watch, screen freezes a lot and the hardware lagging. This watch was not ready for the market. Wear os is such a horrible app. The workout data could have been more in- depth.
The watch feels and looks impressive. Interacting with the watch would take some getting used to. It is not as intuitive as some I have tried. However the battery life on this watch makes its not a practical purchase. I owned the watch 4 days in total and had to charge it 3 times.
