A lightweight watch, with a good option for easy strap changes and with great efficiency for reading sleep and activity. Its good GPS does not have integrated Strava segments, but its activities uploaded directly to Strava (and Google Fit) make it very interesting, especially with the price!

Horst D.

The watch was well packaged and delivered quickly. The watch is very light and easy to handle. There are plenty of sports programs available to use. It's also great that the watch only shows the time or training data when you lift it up and look directly at the dial, which saves a lot of battery. Definitely a good and recommendable product for beginners.
