For those of you about to mourn Pebble, we salute you.
I've not used this but it seems to have decent enough spec.
512mb RAM, dual core 1.2 GHz processor, 4gb storage and 280 mAH battery.
Gsmarena say "Huami promises 35 hours of battery life with all functionality, including real-time GPS tracking enabled. Then, if you use the watch for not more than 1 hour per day as a fitness tracker, you can achieve 5 days of battery life. Finally, you can squeeze 11 days from the Amazfit Smartwatch by using it just as a pedometer."

Whilst other devices have been OK, I would strongly recommend not purchasing and watch from Gearbest based purely on my personal experience. I purchased a smart watch and 5 months later the battery exploded. Fortunately not whilst I was wearing it. I took pictures and reported it to Gearbest for to reasons. Firstly, so they replace the watch as the battery is non removable and secondly so they could others and warn Bluboo the manufactures. Gearbest response was to offer me $10 based on the fact I had warn the watch. So I was £50 down the drain but a lesson learnt.

Thanks for your reply. That's fine just so long as I'm aware how long it takes.

Hi when did you order? As I ordered mine on the 31st and it states still processing? Did they give you any idea of delivery time?

Hi all. Just spoke with the guys over at Amazfit who sell this same watch but with English installed for $129 + $25 postage. However if you use discount code ENGLISH you will receive 20% off. I used PayPal to convert as I don't have a fee free card and was charged £108 all in.
Not too bad noting a) the watch is guaranteed to be in English without the messing around and b) the customer support pre sale has been top notch

hi it is Chinese but you can mod it easily so 90 percent of menus are in English.. I have one and I think it's better than a lot of the high end smartwatches/ fitness trackers the battery is great I'm on day 2 with notifications and I have 77% battery left you can buy this from the us website in full English for the same kind of money

Surely the Chinese couldn't be at odds with the concept of free speech?

Yes that's so true strangely enough. When one looks at websites that provide reviews such as Amazon, Argos, Aliexpress and ebay for example, its evident that the reviews range from positive to negative, five stars to one. However, it would appear that only positive reviews appear on Gearbest, and the negative one I wrote about the watch seemed not to make the site. Must be a coincidence.

No one else notice that "WiFi distance - 5-10 days?!" Must be an engineer's watch if it calculates time and distance?!

are you paid by poundland Sam?

The postage to return it to China will cost more than the watch. So there is no guarantee and no returns. You will never find any item, however rubbish from Gearbest China, not hot here due to their paid actors.

Many of my listings get deleted for one reason or the other. I have the emails from moderators which directly do not blame Gearbest, but I can see how Gearbest listings make the cut and not others in comparison to them.

I posted after they came out about 3 months ago. At that stage they were just with chinese firmware, the fact that they will now be released in the US will mean english firmware. They look good and are a fantastic price. Heat

I'm quite surprised that you had a problem with a product bought from GearBest. Everything they sell only ever gets five star user reviews, so they must only sell perfect stock.

Every Chinese Gearbest product is voted hot here. If you list their European competition, your listing is taken down.

Does this run on Android? Product listing isn't too clear.
I'm guessing it won't get Android Wear 2

Chinese watch made for China only . Long wait to come from China. Customs and processing fee from courier needs to be added . Better buy Sony watch with UK warranty and English manual and app support.

It says clearly in the description....
Note:
The APP supports English, but the watch just displays Chinese.
