    horny tracker, unfortunately too expensive

    The price is too high. I bought the watch at Media Markt for CHF 129, which I think is fair(er). In addition, there is a subscription of just under CHF 10 per month (the first six months are free). FitBit/Google virtually sells you your own data back, wtf.

    Otherwise, a really nice watch, I wear it very much and often look at it because the display is so beautiful. The app is well made and really provides a lot of exciting data if you pay, and you learn why you have a worse sleep after 3 liters of beer in the evening than after one liter. Even kickboxing is available as an activity (sofa surfing is unfortunately not), and it's fun to record every shit with it (unfortunately the GPS is often unusable). You can always see in black and white what kind of lazy bastard you are (or not).

    So if you're not looking for a fat smartwatch (you already have a fat smartphone), but just an elegant tracker, as a quasi extension of the smartphone, you can really grab here. The price is too high, and the subscription is a deterrent, but (I hope) data protection is guaranteed (lol, I have to laugh a bit myself now).

    Alternatively, you can always switch to the Xiaomi Band, which is cheap and has no subscription. But then the Chinese has your (would like) health data.

    Good with certain weaknesses

    After using the charge 3 for a long time, I bought the charge 5.
    It is much more comfortable to wear than its predecessor. Since it is more rounded it fits much better on the wrist. It is also hardly noticeable when sleeping.     Pleasant wristband.
    The display is very bright compared to the predecessor and can be read very well at any time. Shortly turn the hand and it turns on.
    Battery life without GPS and AOD disabled, one week.
    Charging in 1h about 80%.
    Negative points:
    ECG function not available at the moment (although it is advertised large). Will probably come sometime via update.
    The Watch Faces are very childish and much too colorful for my taste. Less is sometimes more.
    The actual display under the glass is quite small, the edges wide.

    5 stars if EKG funkt. and more beautiful watch faces are available.

    Am very satisfied

    Switched from HR to this device and haven't regretted it once. Unfortunately, the membership for FitBit is only 6 months free. I consider well whether the basic functions are enough for me.

    • Easy to use
    • Quick set up
    • Meaningful measurements
