I've got to echo many other comments here... that's some damn fine work you're producing (well shot, sharp editing, brevity, smart/funny voiceover), so I'm gobsmacked that you've not already got a massive number of subscribers. (I'm only here because Samsung are giving the Freestyle away for free with their Folds, and I wondered what it was.) Anyway, you've gained a subscriber. No other social presence?

Hi there! Thank you for your thoughtful comment, and for subscribing. It's very encouraging. At the moment, I'm developing content for other platforms, but it's likely that content won't be released until I have an editor for videos on this channel. Turns out editing is hard work! haha Best, BRB (he/they)

what the heck what was that. waste of my time. these days videos is not about honesty and caring about what they really want to say or show. it is about collecting viewers. this did not explain the item when there is no showing of what it has to be shown. the main is the quality of what the purchaser wants to see at home which i did not see it in this video. for this reason, i gave up buying the item.

The review seems to be trying to compare apples to oranges and causing me to cut the viewing of this review short (and probably missing some good content but this is the way of social media now). I'd recommend giving a review compared to other products in the same category, i.e. outdoor survival watches.... and then supplement it against geeky smart watches like fit bit and apple thereafter. This will help people with different personalities and tastes.... I know for me, I specifically like the blend of digital and analog because I wanted to get away from a "smart watch" and have some disconnection from the digital world.

This is a tough outdoor adventure watch with the best battery life, second to none. Comparing it to an apple watch is insane. Why not compare it to the high end Garmin watches in the same category and price range. Apple fan boy office watches are what the are and nothing more. Get out into nature and some sunlight with the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar. Thanks for the review anyway.

Good review from an apple fanboy! Much appreciated for your comments which although I don’t have this watch and currently looking to ‘upgrade’ from my Garmin forerunner 745, due to wanting a simple sports watch without needing to ever charge and also log my surf activities (forerunner 745 doesn’t). I had an Apple Watch 4 for three years and four days before going completely dead on my ass. I’d get an Apple Watch again if battery lasted more than a week and also had solar charge. Until that time, likely never as apple wants to keep us in a cycle of upgrading for new batteries that last longer, I’ll be sticking with Garmin. All your points on the watch, having owned the forerunner 745 for three years now and knowing how Garmin watches work, seem extremely spot on. I’m also an apple fan boy with MacBook Pro, iPhone, iPad, AirPods. The watch though I just need more than what apple provide and Garmin right now for all it shortcomings actually suit my lifestyle better. And the ‘pros’ of the Apple Watch you mention, actually I’m not bothered about, ie Siri, media controls, workout automation, constantly being connected to apps etc. I actually want to go do sport and be disconnected in purpose and yes yes yes you can turn do not disturb more on and all that. Touch screen. Actually no good in water and I surf everyday and the Apple Watch touch screen drove me crazy, maybe it’s better now since the newer versions? Thanks for your review and all your points are helpful. Yew 🤙

I was really hoping you touched more on the charging efficiency but oh,well. Because, the device for the most part is descent but the charging is less than subpar and the magnetic part is horrible. Most everyone has a case for their iPhones and most cases have Qi, so I have over 12 emails back and forth with Sharge trying to get a refund on mine because I bought it merely (so I could magnetically attach it to my phone and charge it while I use it) at 7.5watts it barely helps and sometimes just keeps up even so what’s the point. Plus, and this is tested. Without a Cover - A 28 minute charge increased the battery 15% without any usage. With the cover a 30 minute and 45 seconds charge increased the battery 15% without any usage. That is horrible. Tried contacting customer service and getting a replacement but I guess because there are no specs on this, they refuse to even entertain a replacement.
