" ... The heart rate was also very difficult to utilize. ... "
" ... I could not set the time to my time zone and it wouldn't give me a heart rate. ... "
" ... The heart monitor only works if you are holding your arm very still and then it still often doesn't work. ... "

" ... I'm on my second band, and both of them have had the heart rate monitor STOP WORKING after 2 months. ... "
" ... It will not track heart rate anymore. ... "
" ... Amazfit does well with tracking steps and telling time but the Heart Rate portion doesn't work! ... "
" ... It simply was not capable of getting my heart rate while I was running. ... I finally came to a full stop and tried several times to get my heart rate. ... that was most definitely wrong since my resting HR is 66 and I was certainly not at a resting HR. ... "

" ... The price was very reasonable. ... "
" ... It's a great tracker at a very reasonable price when I was purchasing. ... "

" ... Other than that it is useless to me - won't correctly log treadmill (says 0.44 miles vs 2.73 I did), can't see the numbers etc when outside in the sun, and no way to add workouts/exercise to app. ... "
" ... I bought an Amazfit, mainly to track my steps. ... "
" ... The step counter only works if you are swinging your arm. ... So if you are carrying something, too bad, your steps won't be counted. ... "
" ... So we now have the world's crappiest $50 watch/pedometer. ... "
" ... Steps wouldn't register. ... "
" ... I ultimately returned the tracker. ... "
" ... I just bought it because I thought that I can use it like the Fitbit to see how many calories I burn per day, but it's not working because it says I just burn 80 calories per day, so it's useless for me. ... "

" ... The band Broke after 6 months ... "
" ... Also, the rubber wrist strap is awkward to fasten. ... "
" ... The band is well buit the software leaves a lot to be desired .I am hoping for an update to make it a better experience & make more usable ... "
" ... The only good thing is the face and band connection - it is more solid than fitbit. ... "
" ... Tightening the band does not help, nor does loosening it. ... "

" ... I love the Sedentary Reminder, which helps to remind me to get up from my computer and stretch out or walk around. ... It is very light and I even forget that I'm wearing it sometimes. ...

" ... Cannot get the app to download on any of my devices, so the time is wrong!!! ... "
" ... Unfortunately there is no way to sync all three on to the same app, so if your kids don't have devices that will install the app, this won't work. ... Which means the amazfit will not work, it has to be connected to an app to work properly (including the watch function). ... "
" ... Worked great until the app wanted to be updated on the iPhone 7. ... Even after logging into the app with my Google account, thinking there might be a backup, "nothing." ... "
