Accuracy

When you are running around all day with a fitness tracker, you expect a pretty accurate representation of your activity levels. Of course, it can be a bit difficult to find something that's going to be 100% exact, but getting something as close as possible is preferable.

One of the most significant discrepancies with fitness trackers is your step tracking. The standard pedometer that you would wear on your hip gives you the most accurate representation of steps. Wearing something on your wrist is never going to be as spot-on as the traditional pedometer. However, considering the location of your tracker, it does give you relatively accurate results throughout the day. So no, it might not be an exact number of steps, but at least it's consistent and clothes.

On the other hand, when it comes to tracking your heart rate and sleep, this watch does a reasonably accurate job. Of course, there are pieces of equipment out there that are going to give you better results, but for a wristwatch, it gives you a pretty good representation of how your body works.

Overall, customers are content with the accuracy of this watch. There aren't too many complaints about their numbers showing any kind of discrepancies.

However, the more you're using it, and the brighter the screen, the quicker the battery will discharge. That said, customers have had no complaints about how long it takes to discharge.

One thing that discourages some people is it does come with a proprietary charging cord. You will receive one when you make your purchase, so you'll have one on hand. However, if you need to purchase a second one because you either lost yours or you need a spare, things can become a bit difficult. Yes, you can buy an extra one online.
