Took me a while to finally able to complete editing this video, I got so many things to say but in general this video summarise some of it up.
Function wise? I'll let others fitness watch review channel to cover it, I'm not the best guy for this aspect to be honest. I'm here because it is a RANGEMAN.

very good highfashion.. I think all G-Shocks are made with very good build quality. single charger for all models is probably what they are planning.

Been a subscriber for a while now always great content thank you for that. The Rangeman, Mudmaster & frogman are water resist to 20bar do you ever pressure test after one of your custom mods or even a simple battery change ? As that’s one of the major features of these “Gs” wouldn’t mine watching a video on that if possible. Wearing a GGB 100 myself

In G-Shocks I usually prefer Tough Solar + MultiBand6 (currently even wearing my 9400) while I dislike the frequent charging of my Polar sport watch. So this Rangeman might fill the gap. However it also says you should never deep discharge your tough Solar watches as this can hurt the capacitor fatally. With this Rangeman I fear it could easily discharge very deeply. Do you think this is a problem or do they use a different battery (which then in the other hand wouldnt last 10+ years)? Btw. I really like your videos 👍🏻

@fabioricci-effeerreworld 4 ай бұрын

I think so... I bought the H5600 and the battery discharge very fast 😞 I think this Rangeman will do the same...

@georgeg1947 2 ай бұрын

The new gpr-h1000 Rangeman doesn’t have the problem with deep discharge. The solar panel on the display works independently from the rechargeable battery that’s inside the watch. The solar panel powers ONLY the time, stopwatch, world time, timer, sunrise/sunset, moon phase and the step counter. So if you wear this watch and expose it to light and sunlight, you never ever need to charge it for using the functions that I listed above if you ALSO shut off Bluetooth. You can shut off Bluetooth by placing the watch in airplane mode. That’s it. The ONLY time that this watch will need to be charged is if you have Bluetooth turned on or if you use GPS or use any of the health and fitness features like the heart monitor and oxygen sensor. Otherwise, if all the health and fitness features are turned off and if you place the watch in airplane mode and if you wear the watch and expose it to light and sunlight, you will never ever need to recharge the watch. It will run forever on ONLY light and sunlight.

You’re wrong about the battery inside this watch being easy to replace. Most people who own these watches don’t have any idea how to take everything apart on the outside of the watch and open up the watch and take more things apart inside the watch to get to the battery. This is a task for a Casio service center. It’s not for an amateur.

Not as good as the gpr b1000 materials used in this watch are not as good, no sapphire glass, no carbon fibre in the strap and no ceramic it might be a good watch but it's been down graded as far as I'm concerned.

@georgeg1947 2 ай бұрын

The gpr-b1000 was too big and it had problems with its rotating crown that was faulty and used to fall off. And big deal if this new gpr-h1000 doesn’t have GPS tracking on the watch display. You can still use GPS tracking with this new model by looking at your smartphone. It still has GPS and you can use the GPS by looking at your smartphone. This new model has all the health and fitness features which its older gpr-b1000 predecessor didn’t have. However, it has everything else in it that the older gpr-b1000 Rangeman had in it. I don’t use any of the health and fitness features on mine, so I have all the health and fitness features turned off on my gpr-h1000 Rangeman and it works fine and never needs charging.

@@georgeg1947I agree with you, most people will trash talk the gprh1000 compared to gprb1000 but they dont know that being lighter is also an advantage when dropped, yup the crown is the problem, and my gprh1000 I never charged using cable as long you really know what you are doing, those who are complaining about the battery of this gprh1000 really does not know how to use it effeciently,

@georgeg1947 Ай бұрын

@@andyblue001 that’s very true. Most people have no clue how battery economical the Casio gpr-h1000 is. The battery can last forever without having to charge it if you wear the watch and if the watch gets natural and ambient light. You can use all the regular time features like the alarms, the compass, barometer, altimeter, stopwatch, countdown timer, moon phase, sunrise/sunset times and the step counter without having to recharge the watch with the USB charger. All those features that I just listed are powered 100% by the solar panel underneath the crystal by natural light and by ambient light. People who trash this watch think otherwise and they don’t understand this.

I live in a city, so I can't really fully test it, not yet. Need to plan a trip somewhere. Anyway, there's some information about it in the manual.

The battery will never need charging if you put the watch in airplane mode.

These functions work ONLY with the solar panel and do NOT work with the rechargeable battery which is a good thing because you will never need to charge the watch if the solar panel is exposed to light and sunlight while you wear the watch.

9400 is hard to beat, at least they tried with this new model. For sensor accuracy, I can't be sure. I didn't have other special tools to compare it with. I had to watch other gadget/tech reviews channel for that. Not the best, but it works.

@forsak3none 4 ай бұрын

while i absoluteley love the rangeman 9400 ( have like 23 of them) this new one does not deserve the rangeman moniker..its just a reskined GBDH2000, tho as preety it may seem, this isnt its biggest problem... my main beef with this release are the shitty bioresin materials used for the bezel and strap..those will fail much much faster than the old versions..unfortunately, like with the new "mudman" casio missed yet another oportunity with an iconic master of g model with laziness in reusing old modules and the bioresin wich ist sole purpose is to make the watch dont last as much as the old ones did ....its quite sad...

@gshockhighfashion 4 ай бұрын

I have the same concern about the material as well, it has not been proven to last yet unlike all those 'vintage' models. Anyway, talking about reskined, look at the watch again, there's only 2 thing that makes it a rangeman, a single piece name & a logo at the back that is removable. This rangeman seems more of an afterthought rather than something built from the ground up.

@georgeg1947 2 ай бұрын

The bio resin material is inferior. It’s cheap and it’s not going to last like the resin in older g-shocks. Only time will tell. This particular model is very complicated and you need to take apart the entire watch to replace the exterior bezel.

@rauliflemington7045 Ай бұрын

The best? The best what? This 'thing' is a disturbing departure from what a G-Shock has traditionally been. Casio would do well to review their future direction with many of their more recent G-Shock offerings. This is a convoluted wrist-worn gadget that is dependent on external devices for charging and full operation. Unlike its predecessors, its operation and functionality are frustratingly non-intuitive. The app it requires is highly problematic with appalling connectivity issues. The design lacks any elegant nuance, the dial now being akin to mere screen. The negative MIP display is slow and still less visible than a positive display. It falls short of being a smart-watch and adds nothing practical to the remit of a more traditional digital timepiece. Casio are risking the repeat custom of swathes of loyal G-Shock enthusiasts if this is a glimpse of future offerings.

@gshockhighfashion 29 күн бұрын

I agree. I think they're trying to maintain their traditional way making things but also wants to modernise it as well. Trying to do both is the issue here I guess. For now, I'm gonna keep giving them chances, good or bad, I like to see how they solve it plus it is still exciting to see all the crazy idea they came up with to test the market. They also release new models every month, insane.
