CARBINOXCARBINOX Vortex Smartwatch (Answer/Make Calls), Military-Grade Rugged Fitness Tracker, IP69K Waterproof, Sport Design for Active Lifestyles

I really enjoy the ease of use of this watch. Connecting to my cell phone via Bluetooth was simple. The graphics are sharp and clear. The touch screen is smooth and works better than my old smart watch. It's lightweight and feels very comfortable.The build quality is top notch and right up there with the big name watches. Battery so far has lasted a whole day and only used 15% with heavy usage for tracking movement and taking all measurements. Charging cable connects easily and charges quickly.All in all a great buy, would definitely recommend to all who are looking for a great watch.

I have been wearing this watch for a little over a week now. So far I find this to be an incredible smartwatch for the price point. Accuracy is exceptional. I manually checked my heart rate in comparison to the watch and it was right on. The oxygen stays are also accurate. The BP runs slightly low, but I don't expect any watch to be able to read BP well, it's a guide only.This is a well built watch and has features that are just as good if not better than the Apple watch. I have used the watch to make and answer phone calls a few times, it is crystal clear and loud enough to hear well.The SMS feature allows you to read, but not answer texts, if that feature was added it would likely double the cost of the watch.Carbonox Vortex is a great value, especially with the current discount.

This is the first smartwatch I have owned so I am learning as I go. Quality seems really good. The watch has a nice weight feel but not "heavy" on my arm. The glass face is definitely scratch resistant. The band does seem flimsy and could be the weakest link, however it is holding up well so far. I like the health monitoring options and the app works great.I like that the watch reminds me to get up and move if it notices I am stationary for too long. Lots of features that I have yet to explore. I am excited to utilize the fitness tracker for outdoor spring/summer activities. So far, I have used it to track winter activities with great results.The only downside I have noticed so far is the charger base and need to recharge the watch more often than what was advertised. The charger base that came with the watch could use a larger base and longer cord. Additionally, after about 4 days, starting with a full charge, I noticed the watch battery gets down to about 30% so I do not agree that it will hold a charge for 15 or so days with regular use however it may be a learning curve on my part to close unused apps and control the background running options to conserve battery power.Overall, I am very satisfied and would purchase again.

I absolutely love this watch, I work with UPS (not a driver) and handle boxes and this watch has held up very well, love the battery life, the large screen with interchangeable faces, makes navigating the watch a lot easier than a tiny screened Apple Watch, and all the other features this watch has to offer, I love being able to monitor my stress level and heart rate, one thing that this watch can do that an Apple Watch will never be able to do is you can set the interval in which the watch checks heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen, and other vitals.Did not have a problem with connecting to my phone, stays connected.However there are some consFirst and foremost, the band that it comes with is very uncomfortable when it’s tight it Irritates the skin with long periods of tight wearing as shown I the third picture, has an annoying slack on it with how small my wrist is, however they have a ton of other bands that are compatible with this watch.Next is not being able to change the alarm, and notifications sound, very disadvantaging.FPS is very low, I miss the animated faces Apple Watches did have, otherwise not really that big of a deal.Cannot reply to messages like you could on the Apple Watch.Overall if you are not at all picky with these potential issues then I would highly recommend this watch. Super durable, and love it

Firstly, I actually really like the watch itself. The various functions work well and it seems quite durable. Haven't got a scratch on it. I do wish there was a little more customization, so far as what the buttons do and items on the menu. As a guy, I will NEVER need to track my monthly cycle. That stays on the watch menu forever, along with other features I don't use. The selection of exercises to choose from in the fitness tracking part are a bit silly. There's like 100 of them. Jump rope is not among them. However, if you need to track your heart rate during such strenuous exercises as golf, darts, bowling, driving, or standing, it's got you covered. After you've chosen an exercise, the phone screen displays a timer and your current heart rate. No real reason for your heart rate do be shown in small numbers, 80% of the screen isn't even being used. The silicone band doesn't keep the excess band in place at all. The extra band goes through one fixed loop, and then another movable loop. This second loop moves all over during the course of the day and you have to keep adjusting it. The app is overall pretty good, except it disconnects from the watch all the time. I think whenever you go to another room without your phone? Wouldn't be a big deal, except it doesn't reconnect on it's own. If you open the app, it will say connecting but it never will. You have to close the app and reopen it to reconnect. The remote camera shutter feature is buggy, and will not do like you think and work as a remote for your phone app. Instead, it works only with the camera feature within the Carbinox app. This app does not do video, by the way, so still photos only, and not with the camera app you want. In summary, this watch is much better than the cheap china watches I've owned before, but with somehow a less reliable app. Is it worth 3 times the cost of those? I'm still not sure. Note that an app or firmware update could possibly fix most of these issues, as the watch functionality is there (usability is not)
