Excellent watch, look smart.
Works really well, looks lovely, it’s really comfortable. Tracks my steps, i can get my notifications from whatsapp, text, messenger, email. I can even talk on the phone with it. Also love the fine my phone thing, i can just tell my watch i’ve lost my phone and the phone will ring, even though i always have it on silent. My only slight gripe is the battery, i’d prefer not to have to charge it daily.
The watch is fantastic, i love how i can pick up calls from the watch and i can talk straight from my airpods. I don’t need to use my phone. I have it in my pocket picking up dust. Watch gets the usual notifications from my apps. As for battery, i have most functions off like always on and turning off the talk back function on the watch as i find it a bit of a hassle to use. Also, i have the extended battery life on to save more juice. End of the day i have roughly 40-50% left. Oh i almost forgot, my watch turns off bluetooth at 10pm then turns on at 6am. That may come in handy for the working days to save some battery during those times. Time only mode is good to store some battery when you are not using during the day.
Great watch, however can not talk through it with iphone.
Responsive, talks back, can answer calls, heart rate tracker and not to mention swim proof. Shame about wear os not offering a preset option for tracking swimming though, to get around this i usually select other on the watch before swimming, then after my session i change it on my phone google fit app to swimming. Really hoping wear os sort things out so that this amazing watch can be used to its full potential. Battery life isn’t too bad, i got 3 workdays out with custom setting where bluetooth disconnected after certain time and started back up at a certain time. Being able to pay contactless on the watch is also a nifty little feature and i’m absolutely in love because i no longer need to carry my purse around.
So far so good, nice watch, quality feel. Bought as a present and they love it. Interface has a good speed and charging is quick.

Looks good, comfortable, ace
Very successful purchase, good quality at an affordable price.
I already have a gen 5 carlyle which is a great smartwatch. Therefoere i bought this ladies gen 5 for my wife for her christmas present. Only slight downside is that the pink leather strap does tend to get dirty quickly, however she uses a pencil rubber to keep it clean.
I was surprised at the weight to start with. I bought it to replace my fitbit which had died of old age. Google fit is really limited and you can’t download other apps – at the moment there is only a small range of apps you can use. Notifications from texts, calls, gmail (not other mail apps) work ok and google pay works fine too.
Does everything she could hope for. Interface takes a little getting used too but a super piece of kit all in all.
Absolutely love everything about the technology of this smart watch. However the strap very quickly gets filthy if you wear it everyday. It’s disappointing for amount this watch costs.
