Anbes Health and Fitness Smartwatch with Heart Rate Monitor, Smart Watch for Home Fitness Tracking, Yoga, Exercise Bike, Treadmill Running, Compatible with iPhone and Android Phones for Women Men

I've had this for around a week, and although a bad cold has kept me from using it as much as I'd like for its main intended purpose, tracking my workouts, I was able to take it on a couple of runs and have been able to put it through its paces on its other features.As most here know it's sold under various brand names, from LetsFit to LetsCom to this one, Anbes, but it's clearly the same watch, and all use the same app. I got the Anbes because it happened to be the cheapest version at the time, at just over $30.Anyway, I like it, and will definitely keep it, as it does nearly everything I need it to do, and does them all fairly well (as opposed to what I'd also like it to do, but it doesn't quite do, yet at least).As I mentioned, my main purpose for getting this was to track workouts, specifically outdoor runs. I've been using various fitness apps to do that for years now, and they work well, but the problem with all of them is that they require me to carry and interact with my phone while running which is cumbersome and annoying and breaks up the flow of the run. So I decide to get a fitness watch so I could keep the phone in my pocket and interact only with the watch.I initially got a fitness tracker, and it was fine, but it neither it nor the app would automatically pause the clock when I stopped mid-run, nor could I manually do this from the tracker. I could only do this from the app, which defeated a big part of the reason to get a fitness tracker. Plus its display was small and dim and all but impossible to read outdoors during sunny days.So I got this watch instead, and it solved most of these issues. It still doesn't automatically pause the clock when I'm not in motion, but I can now manually pause it from the watch itself, which is a huge plus (I don't stop that often, plus auto-pause doesn't always work reliable in most apps). Plus the display is much bigger AND brighter, and it's easy to read it on even the sunniest day while in motion.The other features mostly work well. The HR seems accurate enough, the sleep tracker is kind of interesting, I like being able to see messages and who's calling me (and reject calls), the find my phone feature seems useful, and there's even a stopwatch and countdown time, basic music app controller, and a "relax" feature. I haven't used most of these features yet, but know that I will, once I get back running.The main things I don't like about it aren't so much complaints as they are wishes for future features that seem obvious and not that difficult to implement. Such as the ability to control your phone's camera (which, oddly, the fitness track can do), a somewhat more versatile music app controller with volume controls, current weather or news alerts (from the phone), and an auto-pause feature for workouts. I also wish there was a way to download fitness and workout data to your PC, so you can store and analyze historical data. Oh, and a few additional watch faces wouldn't hurt.Bottom line, it's a good, solid, attractive, comfortable, well-made fitness watch, perhaps not quite as fancy and feature-rich as better-known ones, but also a LOT less expensive. Plus, the battery lasts a LONG time. I've been wearing mine regularly for a week and it's still at 62%. When I do need to charge it, it has a really nice charger with a magnetic "lock".If you need a fitness watch, definitely consider this one. I only gave it 4 stars because as good as it is, I think it can stand with some improvement. Hopefully a future update will incorporate some of these features I'd like to see, or others. Plus, the app can stand for some improvement, e.g. auto-pause, workout downloads, HR min/max/avg that actually make sense, etc.Update 2/12/20: I've had this for 3 weeks now and overall am still very satisfied with it, with the above caveats still applying. This morning it still had 12% battery after I initially charged it when I first got it! So battery life is definitely one of its pluses. On the other hand, I've found that its GPS tracking under-reports distance covered by around 10-12%, at least when using Google Maps as its GPS source. The other 2 options seem to be more accurate, but they don't have location maps so you can view your workouts. Something to work on in a future release. Plus basic weather reports on the watch face, auto-pause, downloadable data, etc. If you're an average fitness person this watch is more than ok, but if you're really into fitness and can afford it, you might want to spend a bit more on a name brand watch.

I only gave it a 4 because the touch screen is not sensitive enough. I have to try multiple times to delete SMS messages so I turn that function off. And it's difficult to control the music feature. Also it disconnects from phone too frequently and it's difficult to reconnect...also taking multiple tries...including having to reboot the phone altogether. Very frustrating. But when it's working it does a great job monitoring steps and heart beat along with the other feature. It's definitely waterproof. I've showered with it multiple times and it hasn't stopped working. I'm prob gonna return it and try one of the similar watches with a bit better reviews and spend a few extra dollars to see if I can get a better touch screen so I can use more features and see if they have less connection issues.

I've only been using this for about 6 hours, but so far I am totally loving it! I will update my review if anything comes up. 3-19-2020I used to have a tracker like this that didn't have the touchscreen and I am really enjoying this one much more.This came almost fully charged! I only had to plug it in for 10 minutes or so.Unbinding my old one took a minute but once this one was bound, it's amazing.This is very affordable.I love the ability to set alarms via the app, and then turn them on and off on the watch. And it has a very basic guided breathing program on it. That is great for me right now, I'm trying to stay on a routine and I am planning on setting a bunch of alarms to make sure I am moving through my schedule.I did turn the auto sense off to save battery, I am often knitting and don't want those movements to count.I've never understood the allure of the brand names, so expensive. This can control my music as well.

Love love love!! I got this watch because I wanted to make sure I was getting up and moving and also so I didnt have to keep my phone on me at all times. I get my emails, texts, alerts from calendar, Facebook messenger alerts, and can change my music. This watch is water proof I shower, take baths and have swam in it no issues. The battery life is fantastic I might charge it once a week and I usually put it on the charger while I'm getting ready in the morning and its fully charged by the time I'm finished! Someone said the other day I like the color of your apple watch! Ha well little do you know I'm not about to spend that kind of money on a watch and thanks to this gem I dont have to! Can you make these is other colors please so I can buy more?!
