Really glad that you started your separate channel. I am really enjoying your channel. :)

Great review! Precise & concise. Subscribed!

great review man, it's definitely way overpriced, especially without GPS for this audience.

WHAT ABOUT MY JANUS

[@ThorTheGiant]

Been waiting for a review for this watch. Thank the Gods it was reviewed by Mr Mobile!!! Casio got so close to the perfect smartwatch here. No surprises though that an actual watch manufacturer could do such a good job...

[@aznwierdone]

holy crap this makes me super psyched for the next generation!!! battery life in a watch is of top priority for me, so i really hope it improves. I had no idea casio was making smartwatches, and i haven't heard about this watch from any other channels i follow, so thank you so much for the review!!!

[@dbmeo3417]

Good to see analog watch brands step in instead of letting the smartphone manufacturer do it. Consumers need more brand diversity.

[@TheAwey21]

i've already watched the video, but you mentioned it on the series 2 apple watch review and i just HAD to come back

[@yasserarkan]

500.. Thats crazy to company known for its good prices watchs

[@SneakyJoesENG]

Got mine on Amazon for 165 USD. Bought second after a month for 200. Awesome.

Casio really did a bang-up job keeping the software looking good. Similar to their custom stuff for the old G'z'One phones.

[@Qwertworks]

MrMobile [Michael Fisher] I didn't even know about these phones :D But I totally agree!

doing well Michael, love the channel and the quality is awesome.

[@tomchan2559]

If there is a manufacturer which can make a near perfect smartwatch, it should be Casio. Though they have missed a few things for this one, I m looking forward to the 2nd gen.

[@Magneira]

Shame its not a G-Shock, when they make a G-Shock (GA100 style) with android wear, I will get one.

[@loafywolfy]

i'll get one when the battery lasts a week and its 100M certified

No GPS or HR sensor and 400 at the time? Definitely not a good buy at the time looking back at it from 2021. Solid start.

A very beautiful smartwatch.

[@PhiHuynh166]

The way you review technology is priceless. I do like it. It's professional

[@mkw050791]

The stacked LCDs and timepiece mode is brilliant! I also wish more watches did that! I mean, wow!

[@picklechimp5113]

Nice Pinback shirt!

[@dbermont]

I believe the 5 ATM thing is really a "traditional watch" marketing thing. That means 5 atmospheres of STATIC pressure or 10m/33ft (good for superficial swimming in the most extreme case). I think that it is the same as the IP ratings normally seen in some devices, like IPX7.

[@Dfm_Sushil]

Only android..? No I phone...? Can I use this watch with I phone?

i am going to settle for fenix 3 hr, this watch was nearly the one for me! looks good but does not do enough. great review though honest and real thank you.

[@CrazyBullBear]

hey MrMobile.. in your opinion which smartwatch one should buy with perfect or almost perfect package?

[@KunalKBhat]

I.WANT.THIS!!! I love casio! My Casio G-Shock has to survive atleast an hour under water every week and it just works!

[@jacopocarboncini5712]

You are the best! Professional reviews and also hilarious! :))

[@noobmaster-dm7tu]

Loved the tease of the "Beach Phone". Which one is it?

[@PanamaSilverback]

Personally I just bought the new Pebble time 2. But for that price range and features perhaps you would like the Garmin Fenix 3 HR. I would love to see you review it. You happen to give the best reviews in my opinion.

[@TheMrMobile]

Thanks! I see a lot of mentions of the Fenix3 but I'm not much of a fitness maven. IMO it serves a totally different market than the F10.

[@zachary3352]

Awesome video! I learned a lot about this watch.

[@Aghinari]

This is my favourite smart watch by far. Still I'll hold out for the next iteration.

[@shibiskumar1306]

One thing that holds me from buying/recommending a smartwatch is the lack of ease of the interface. tiny screens and touch being the only way to do almost 90% of stuff makes the experience more of gestures and a cumbersome experience. the only good thing about these are notifications.I feel that smartwatches need a different interface for interaction. loved the video though, a perfect review. waiting for the next one.

[@TheMrMobile]

There's definitely an interface problem facing most smartwatches today. In fact there's a line I had to cut from this video to save time, wherein I lamented that Casio didn't code a special "wet screen" app that lets you use the buttons to navigate the interface instead of the touch screen. But I consider that more an Android Wear limitation than a Casio failing, so I dropped it.

[@jasonburns1352]

[@IvanAtli]

Mr. Fisher, can you put a playlist in your channel that leads to your pocketnow reviews?

[@vicentegeorge9059]

Great review as usual Michael! Totally agree on you, is a nice piece of tech, but no correctly targeted, without those omissions could have been really awesome!

[@SidCudi_]

I was really starting to love this thing... until you started talking about the battery.

[@TheCaptain008]

$499 for a watch that won't stand the test of time or will quickly become dated within a couple years of tech advances? For $499 you can get a solid mechanical watch that will always function as intended and outlive any smart watch.

[@SpiderMan-ni8ek]

Casio has always been using "outdated" tech. You numbskull. They said calculator watches wouldn't stand the test of time too. Now who's laughing? Casio is still going strong. Plus. This watch functions as a "normal" digital watch when it's low on battery.

[@mightza3781]

The mechanical watch industry was almost killed off during the "Quartz Crisis" when cheaper, more reliable and more accurate quartz watches came onto the market. They survived by marketing themselves as luxury goods and stopped trying to pretend they were making the best time keepers. Don't pretend that the mechanical watch is the best tool for keeping time, since they're not. Like horse riding and calligraphy, a small subset of the population will keep a tradition alive regardless of practicality.

[@Sergei__v]

Apatthetic Man a good mechanical watch now can serve as a piece of jewelry for men - a status symbol. Smart watches have a hard time doing that as they age rapidly and belong in the utility category

[@Envinite]

$499 mechanical watch outlive any smart watch? Yea right. Mechanical was only good for its looks and bragging right. A mechanical watch lacks of accuracy compared to digital and requires more maintenance as it's way less durable due to more components compared to digital ones. Don't get me wrong, I don't enjoy smartwatch and only buy mechanical watch. But saying that it will outlive smart watches, is a bunch of customer pride bullshit. Besides, mechanical watches at that price point basically use an 'outdated' tech for its own category.

[@NeoPortaPotty]

Envinite I think he means outlive any individual smartwatch not smart watches as a technology smart watches get outdated easily so its not like you'll want to use one for more then a few years before you want or need to upgrade whereas a properly maintened mechanical watch can last forever I have a few 100+ year old pocket watches I've inherited that outside of needing a good cleaning still work well.

[@AdrianBigyes]

I'm lovin' the color choice.

[@techtalk2213]

Hey Mr. Mobile, What did you use for the intro I like it!

[@constantinsir.8682]

Hi there, First of all, great videos, keep up with the great work Mr Mobile ;) I have a question, is there any way you can make a review on the Garmin Fenix watch, the new model? Looking forward for a professional review on that watch and I know you're the best men for the job ;) Thanks a lot and keep up with the great work!

[@MaZEEZaM]

LOL, The shock you get when you realise you are watching a REALLY old video...

[@fiatmultiplaa]

Awesome video! Keep it up!

[@飞悦]

So most of the functions are required to be connected to the internet right , can I independently use the watch when I have no phone along to me ....such as swimming,running....

[@neardood1]

casio is onto something good with the dual LCD. Couldn't help but notice the resolution of the colour screen was pretty low however.

[@TheDark-Knut]

This and the Gear S2 are the only two watches which have come close to being "Smart". Well done casio!

[@BloodAsp]

The S2 has a depressing lack of applications. Upon my review so far, the S2's only claim to fame is the phone capability. If you want a exercise tracker, get a fitbit. If you want a computer watch, get the gear S1, if you want a wrist phone, get this. Stupid proprietary operating system. The sad thing is, it has the potential to be the ultimate combination of the three, but they had to use this funky OS that I guess no one is porting apps to. :/

[@TheDark-Knut]

heyou Cmon.. i think most of the usual one's are present which you expect from a smartwatch. Although i do feel samsung should launch an android variant also. I do miss some of the google apps!

[@BloodAsp]

Yes, very much so, yet it has the potential to be so much more, it is indeed an exceptional watch, this was my harsh review of it.

[@TheDark-Knut]

heyou haha.. true. That dial mechanism does have the potential to do quite a lot of stuff.

[@willpatterson7182]

love these reviews. Brought the LG watch because of it.

[@TheSlimyDog]

Not a huge fan of the design but it has a ton of great features packed in so hopefully other manufacturers will take note. The dual screen display is really neat too.

[@ryuhaneda]

Ah, Casio! The brand I grew up with, synonymous to me with packaged efficiency and utility. I even wear a $20 Illuminator series watch right now. Frankly, if I had the money, I'd be tempted to buy one. It definitely breaks the norm of the smart watches I've seen, and the geek in me has always wanted a watch with an altimeter (let alone the virtual suite of sensors available). I've owned a very cheap smart watch, so I understand that some utility and connectedness is expected from what you wear, but I'm also not a user of heart rate sensors at all (and since I carry my phone with me often, I can live with a watch not having a GPS sensor). Hopefully, the watch will come down somewhat in price in the future, if I get the opportunity to purchase one. All the same, it's a great-looking watch to me, and a more solid reason to consider buying one in the future.

[@TheMrMobile]

Solid feedback! Also a note on the altimeter: it's really fun to use during air travel. When the cabin pressure drops to 6000 ft the graph plummets. It's awesome.

[@ryuhaneda]

Ok, now I really want one of those. :) ...makes me wonder: will Casio ever brand/produce another smartphone like the old Verizon Commando series (of years and years ago)? Sounds like a potential pairing... to build a new smartphone, and then throw in some built-in software that works real well with the smart watch sensors. (I don't know if that would qualify as bloatware, though, and all the same, I'm glad they poured their energy into a watch instead.) I'm already a fan of it (and ignoring the yellow and red flags that say "wait for version 2.0!!!"). There is a sizeable benefit to having a watch rated to the levels of durability it has. Not that I'd just be tossing the thing around, but buying that would almost make me want to go camping more. Art imitating life? More like art beckoning me to go live life. :) Btw, keep up the phenomenal job. Your videos have been great, and your presentation is absolutely excellent. The ballad of Michael Fisher continues... indeed.

[@zafarmahmood8410]

Hey Michael, are you able to post a link to the music used in the background? Thanks

[@TheMrMobile]

[@cychi20]

how much does it cost now please?

[@ChrisJohannsen]

Flat tire with no ambient sensor is so weird. I was somewhat interested until I checked the Canadian price on Amazon - $1,200.

[@BryanEaton]

holy crap!

[@morells09]

Yup that's typical for us Canadians

[@dontarguewithfools]

Chris Johannsen wth does flat tire mean? lol

[@morells09]

S. Crago it means there's a black bar the bottom of the display that would normally host the ambient light sensor and what not but in this case it has that "flat tire" look but no ambient sensors to be found

[@yessinegourar5691]

[@ricardorusso1462]

you should review the Garmin Fenix Chronos. I have a Fenix Chronos and it's the best at combining all the smart watch features i need with a GPS sports watch

[@TaofikiGafar]

This is what happened? I've wondered where you went. Also with how thick this watch is, still flat tire? idc about post fire but surprised it has one

[@TheIllaman]

hi Michael, which camera do you use to shoot your videos?

[@joncruz]

I love how it looks but no GPS, poor battery for such a big monster and no 4g capable.......is a no-no no. Great video though as always Mr. Mobile

[@santiagodelaespriella1940]

hey bro which one is better between this one and the Nixon The Mission?

[@xxrumlexx]

5 bar or 50m water resist is does not mean you can dive 50m down with it. its a static pressure test. when you actively move around the pressure is much higher. at 5 bar its fine in shallow water and splashes/shower. but for anything under water for more than a few minutes and more than half a meter atleast 10bar/100m wr. which is fine for surface swimming and a pool. if you want to dive go dont go under 20bar/200m wr.

[@TheMrMobile]

Thanks for the added info!

[@xxrumlexx]

+MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Im kind of a watch nerd 😂 nice review here though. And it is very misleading with 50m actually not being 50m

[@xxrumlexx]

+Keontae Carter Grow up? 😅

[@labeldestrel8609]

+rumle well I actually swim with my gear s2 which only supports 1m ..in salad wather and it's fine.. and that's a way different kind of smartwatch in comparison with this one , I don't see why you can do the same even better with that one ... but it has not that bizel thing that the Sammy has so...no worth it
