Let's connect on Twitter @mikeobrienn twitter.com/mikeobrienn I've been using this watch for almost 2 months and haven't charged it once. In fact, I used GPS a lot and the battery went down to 50%. Then I left it on my window sill for a few days and it is back to 100% 🤯

Yeah that solar charging is the key feature on the watch. I really want that to be standard feature for all "smart" watches. Would gladly pay an extra ≈$50 for for it on any watch. The accurate GPS is also a plus, other than that I'm not feeling this watch. Price is reasonable.

Hi. I am a huge G-Shock fan,and after 10 months of using it, I am very happy to have one. But,I would like to address some "problems" that future user might find a little repulsive . No 1/100 of second on stopwatch No proper countdown stopwatch 5 days battery life with heart beat sensor on all the time No full hour beep Alarm and notification is very quiet ,too quiet Solar charging it takes about two hours on direct sun to charge one bar batery level Impossible to export just hear rate during sleeping time even event has been recorded in watch GPS lock takes up to 45 seconds(over a minute in wood) For accuracy barometer,altimeter and compas need to be calibrated Vibration is very weak Personally,I love my GBD-H1000.

in my own opinion, since i have this watch last June '20, i have used this watch on a daily basis, and i have only charged my watch 2x only for the past 3 months + well yes, its solar powered!! as long as it is being ligted by the sun, charging will be very very minimal not like other smart watched you charge it after 2- 3 days, but this one; mine 2x only for the past 3 months...that's the best thing of being solar powered. and very functional. it has sensors, barometer, temperature, heart rate, steps count, GPS, and many other features you can use and record your daily activities. this for my opinion is a good watch to have..less charging and water proof and water resistant as well...made by CASIO GSHOCK!!

Well to be fair, G-Shock wasn't known for making smartwatches. Their trademark was always the unbreakable tank watch, undying battery with 200m water resistance. If you just want sport smartwatch with accurate sensors without any concern for the aforementioned features, you're not wrong into Garmin and Fitbit. By all fairness though, unless you're working as a military personnel or frequently goes off-grid. Durability and battery longevity are not so important for regular users. Except of course you're a purposely abusive person to your watches or very forgetful. 😅 If I want a G-shock though, I would just buy a regular G-shock without all these bells and whistles.

I've had this watch for 10 days now. I love it and I returned the Instinct Solar to keep this one. My complaints fit two categories; 1. same complaints I have about all G-Shocks and 2. GBD H1000 specific complaints . Standard G-Shock complaints: beeps/alarms/timers are too low/quiet, too few alarms, light turns off with subsequent button presses (if I turn on the light and keep pressing buttons the light should stay on), buttons are mushy, too long of a delay with switching screens/modes. GBD H1000 specific complaints: the band could be a bit more soft silicone for running, the harder silicone slips a bit on the wrist when sweaty (not horribly but I think it could be improved). Connection to bluetooth is difficult to establish and drops (its actually getting better the longer I have it). The mobile app is def V1. It has everything I need but is not as sophisticated as the Garmin app. There is only an interval timer, not a daily use timer. I chose this over other watches I bought and wore. It is a crazy close competitor to the Instinct Solar but I wanted my new running watch to be a daily driver (my previous Garmin I would wear to workout then take off) and I couldn’t see myself wearing the Instinct all day. As a G-Shock lover the choice over the Instinct Solar was pretty easy once I had them both in-hand. *When you read this please know I am not a smartwatch person so none of the smartwatch features were a consideration.

Question: Do you have to navigate to the notification screen to find out if there are notifications? I imagine that a true notification is when your watch vibrates to notify you, and when you turn your watch to look, it shows you WHO you got a TEXT. CALL, or EMAIL from. Is this not the case for this watch? I would hate to spend the $400.00 to find out it does not notify me of anything unless I "check" it by pressing buttons to navagate to a notification screen. Checking is the opposite of notification. Thanks for any details on this as I didn't see this aspect covered in the video (other than a display of the notification screen and not how the notifications work).
@l.brentgilmore20204 жыл бұрын

In the review you say that you have to find another place to start running, because the GPS won't activate (somewhere in the beginning...). Did that happen more than once? I got rid of my TomTom watch because it had that same problem, now i am using a garmin and that has not let me down yet, not even in the mountains of Austria.

How long will the battery last with only heart monitor on?
@daverobertson6234 жыл бұрын
I read somewhere that the battery will last a year with all the features being used except GPS.

How to know if GPS is on? Is there a way to keep GPS on even without running?

Wau super cool . Top Information Video. Is there a good Timer on board?

what is the point of heart rate if it miscalculates by that much. To know when the rate was high and when it was low? Well you know that even without the watch. Watch would be needed for precise rate display, not just aproximate (high or low etc)

What is the life of the battery ?. I mean how many years will it take for replacing battery ?

There is no traditional timer function but maybe the interval workouts is a work around. Does the watch beep when the end of an interval timer is readhed?

How is the battery life, when the pulse monitor is on all day long? I would need this for health problems. An other review said, that it lasted only a day. Greetings from Europe 🙂

66 hours according to the manual. Seems legit. I've had mine for almost 3 weeks, but don't keep the HR on all the time. Without GPS, with HR only, it's up to 66 hours (so I'd say no less than 66 h, as this number is without taking solar charging into account, just the discharge current). Cool thing here is that when the battery runs low, HR and GPS will switch off, leaving the 'normal watch' + Bluetooth notifications for ~2 more weeks :)

Try the Amazfit Trex Smartwatch. Great for only 140 Bucks.

Hi I wanted to confirm one thing. This watch can show the map where I actually ran without it being connected to a smartphone right? Am I correct?
