HI. Thanks Chuck. The V69 is it easy to remove the crown and reattach you mentioned about it having a clip. Someone mentioned to fix the turning crown can put a dental elastick behing the crown - just want to know how easy to get it in there
Taking the watch apart and removing the crown isn't hard, specially if you have some experience. Where I ran into trouble was with the tiny e clip that holds the crown in, it's probably a 1mm or 1.5mm e clip and of course I dropped it and never saw it again. And that's when I realized two things. First, that an assortment of tiny e clips cost as much as the whole watch, and second that the watch also works completely fine without the crown. And an assortment of dental elastic bands, and you'll need an assortment to get the right size, isn't cheap either.
I looked at it. Part of me wanted to blow tomorrow's lunch money on it but a couple of things held me back. First the chipset in it, the JIELI 7012A6 is one I've never heard of before and I couldn't get any information on it at all other than other watches using it. Next, the app it uses they're calling "Co-Fit" and while I expect it's just a fork of Da Fit, I don't know for sure but it looks OK. But the biggest concern to me is the battery size. The V69 has an amazing 710 mah battery and easily lasts 10 days. The D69 has a 450mah battery and while it might last a week, without the processor being at least as efficient as the RealTek chip in the V69, there's no way to know without trying it. When I started with the watches my minimums were a 1.5" screen and a 500mah battery. But I'm thinking about it and I may get it anyway. God knows I can afford to do without lunch tomorrow. lol
@@3rdpig Ok, I don't know much about the chipsets and processors in these watches. I'm thinking about buying it because of what I've seen it looks pretty good but unfortunately there aren't many reviews of it yet.
Good review, thanks for sharing For me I'd probably choose v69 which I did, it'll arrive next week It looks more classic and bigger, bigger battery capacity, easier app to use, has more faces to change even if I cannot delete any, slower wake-up isn't a deal breaker for sure LIGE T-30 is just 30 milliseconds faster, that's fine for me. The t-30 crown press issue is a deal break for me, it's very annoying to go to the main screen when just pressing a button to go back. About the crown sensitivity, there are a few solutions to fix it 1- A new update is coming soon for it 2- May put the tiniest elastic bands used for braces on the crown itself, i saw this solution and really fixed it What about Bluetooth connection ?! Are two watches still connected to the phone and receiving notifications even when the phone is more than 5 meters away ?! I have a Dt7 smartwatch, a really good one but the Bluetooth connection is really weak.
I agree with everything you've said with the possibility of the response speed. I didn't measure the time difference myself, but it is noticeable if you use both watches. I feel like I'm waiting for the V69 to light up. I've got the update, it helps but it doesn't cure the issue completely. I've heard the bit about tiny elastic bands, but unless you have an assortment already you're going to have to buy a bunch to figure out which one is just right. I haven't tested the bluetooth range, but I really haven't noticed any issues. I've gotten notifications on both watches when I've been outside and my phone is sitting on my desk inside. Honestly for the price I don't think you can go wrong with either watch.

Would be fun to see a comparison between the new DK69 and this V69, both are 1.85inch watches.

Do both watches light up when you receiveing notifications ?
Yes.

Does this support social media app?
The app can send messages to the watch from a variety of different social media. So if that's what you mean by support, then yes.
