Overall the watch is great. This is my first smartwatch and functionality is very nice. If you wear long sleeves the bezel does turn occasionally activating the watch. Speaker is very good and receiving and sending texts are nice. If you want to type a message the keyboard is not very functional. I voice text nearly everything. Battery life is only about a day and a half at most. If you use the watch on a regular basis that is what you will find you will get. If you don't touch the watch I'm sure you could get the advertised amount of days. I have to use the always-on function because I have found that just turning your wrist to activate the watch does not always work. That could be a good part of the battery drain. It does go into a sleep mode but you can still see the watch face. Overall I think that it is a very good functional watch. I would recommend it to a friend. The watch face is a little large but I would not want it much smaller.
