5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the best smart watch I have ever owned

L. · 1 November 2024

To back that statement up, I’ve previously used an Apple Watch Ultra, Samsung classic 6, ticwatch 3 pro ultra etc. I was sceptical about buying this brand as I had tried a blip model a couple of years back and it was awful (but it was cheap).The design is beautiful (I’ve gone for the black with silicone strap), it’s light, durable and looks the part. The slightly curved 1.5” screen is crystal clear with clarity of text with deep blacks, colours that pop and smooth transitions across the tiles and menus.It has so many features, way too many, like a jack of all trades when it comes to fitness but these do not overwhelm - you can chose what to be notified about etc.All readings are very accurate, comparison with a Fitbit band. Readings are also detailed and you can read more into them if that’s your thing. Maps and GPS are also very thorough.If you receive a WhatsApp or text message notification, you can reply to them via zepp flow, a virtual assistant- simply dictate your reply and send. I’ve found its accuracy spot on. Flow can also set you reminders, appointments, change your watch settings, play music etc - meaning you don’t always need to be swiping and tapping for functions. It also has Alexa built in. The companion app is clean and easy to understand.For around £200 it’s not cheap but neither expensive when you compare to other premium brands. Oh and the battery life, I’ve worn it solidly so far for 5 days and it’s used 20% battery - what’s not to like. Very highly recommend

5.0 out of 5 stars You will not get better quality or functionality for this price point.

Great value for money considering the accuracy in the apps as opposed to some 700 pound plus watches. Nearly on par with Garmin fir GOS accuracy, very very impressive. Good sleep analysis, can't vouch for just how good as I have no advanced sleep tech to compare too, some times it will track a nap if you're just about to doze into one so it may get tricked some times, but I feel like it does a pretty good job at tracking sleep. I have skinny wrists for a male and feel like the size is just perfect if you like sleeker styled watches, not ludicrously big, not so small it looks too feminine, just right. I like the app functionality, loads of little gadgets to use like heart rate, spo2, altitude, etc etc It really is and amazing little watch the screen clarity could be a bit better, but honestly I think that only matters if you have very dense/complicated watch faces loaded in.Very impressed by this watch, I will buy another if I end up breaking this one (build quality seems great, but I go out on motorbikes etc so it gets abused). You will not get better quality or functionality for this price point, trust me I researched for hours.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Sure, Want More & Will Try Again

So, where to begin, I have always had galaxy Watches, I have the 5 pro now, had been waiting for the Ultra to see what that would produce. My biggest gripes on all smartwatches are battery life and syncing, plus ease of use. Have Galaxy Watch have Samsung phone all good!.......yea, but no. I love not having to take a watch off and so charging every 36 hours is annoying. Which brings me onto the Balance. I had one and sent it back, now that it has AI and can you can speak your reply plus amazing battery life thought we'd try again. I did, but sent back - back I am going to try again. Lets start, the watch isn't chunky, its light weight, good screen resolution, but doesnt have the feel and build quality of the Samsung or a Huawei, but it doesnt feel cheap and nasty. Setting up is a challenge, although great intergration with Google Fit - no issues there. The software seems a little laggy but again that could be due to the set up and syncinig. The Zepp App is easy to install and the pairing of the watch simple enough. This is the tricky bit now. You need to provide lots of permissions for the watch to access everything, again once done seems OK, only you also have to go into the Zepp app to allow phone permissions and then bluetooth on the phone to allowing calls - if you don't do this the phone will not work through the watch. Media playing and controling is easy but no Spotify or Deezer, only use from the watch unless you load music directly - not an issue but time consuming. Furthermore, going back to permissions, these need to be granted for the Zepp app to send notifications, all straight forward but takes time - plenty of canned replies plus the ability to voice text/whatsapp reply is good. Pictures can be viewed on whatsapp messages on the phone and watch too. Speaker loud and clear but a little tiny. Fitness tracking seems good, GPS picked up well and route back feature useful. I havent tried NFC pay, but if I buy again and keep for a while I shall subscibe to Curve and load cards. the Zepp apps needs to be kept open and locked for full functionality, so a tad more battery drain on the phone. The Zepp app fitness info is incredible in detail and contains every metric you will ever need and the one step measurements on the watch is very clear and useful - the watch and app sync well. Sleep tracking seems on par with the Galaxy watch 5 pro - not sure I agree with the subscrition service, but one I may consider if I buy again. Body compersition measurement works and seems on a par with the Galaxy watch 5 pro. The stand out feature for me is the battery life. The watch I had came with 72% charge, I set it up, used for three days and tracked numenrous excercises, when I went to charge it again - still had 22% really amazing. My only other bug is that whilst you can receive, reply and delete messages etc from the watch, this doesnt sync with the phone, so when you go to your emails, texts or Whatsapp messages on your phone they need to be cleared so you are doubling up. summing up I would say when you get the watch you need patience and time to understand it and what works best for you, I have little patience, so having a Samsung Watch and Phone where snycing is instant on all things, plus Samsung pay it really tough to say I definetly going to prefer the Balance, but if you or I for that matter can live with a few niggles to have fantastic battery pretty good tracking and not an over priced watch, this could be the one for you. One final point worth mentioning, if you have used Google Fit or Samsung Health or Huawei Health ou know the phone will track your steps without the watch. The Zepp app doesnt do this, so if you are not wearing the watch your steps will not be counted - I did try to see if turning on Fit tracking would cause double counting when putting the watch back on and leaving Fit tracking working side by side, but can't be sure if one conteracts the other. Hope this is of use and happy choices. If I but again and keep for a while I shall follow up - time and patience will tell :)Brief update, I did purchase again and found this since a possible update the phone and watch messages did sync. Very good. The downside having kept for a few days once the phone got very hot and battery drain heavy - apparently this is to.do with Zepp app being locked as kept open which constantly looks to sync with the watch. Unfortunately this led to me sending back again......perhaps I might try Garmin or wait for next iteration of the balance and try once more!

Bien

Love this watch - great features - good battery life (depends on features running) - good set of apps and lots of watch faces to choose from. Only had the watch for a month or two - but everything is going well with it so far.

Beter dan de bekende merken? goed horloge!

Mooi om te zien.Doet alles -en nog veel meer- wat ik wil.In Euro's niet duur, in gebruiksduur wel heel lang (8 - 10 dagen )Fijn horloge, misschien wel beter dan de bekende merken.

Smartwach fajny ale aplikacja ech :(

Z. · 2 March 2025

zamówiłem kiedyś i naszła mnie ochota na opisanie moich dośwadczeń, zegarek jak najbardziej ok, bardzo mi się podobała jego funkcjonalność, to za co odejmuje punkty to aplikacja, brak stabilności połaczenia telefonu zegarkiem był m.in tym dlaczego ten watch zwróciłem :(
