  • The Citizen CZsmart Hybrid Watch is almost the perfect tech pairing, an analog watch from long-time watchmaker Citizen, combined with an eInk-based screen that offers notifications, health monitoring, and lots of other features. The best part? You only have to charge it every 15 days. It doesn't even look like a smartwatch! Watch aficionado Dave Taylor checks out the Citizen CZsmart Hybrid Smartwatch and finds lots to like, along with some user experience issues you'll want to know about...

    Hi mr. Taylor, new subscriber here, to turn on the light you don’t need to hit on the glass, everywhere you hit twice will turn on the light, even the band

    Nice vid, if you could have zoomed closer into the watch as you spoke, it would be better.

    Great looking watch, nothing like it in the smartwatch market. 15 day battery life is amazing. Easy to use and great fitness features.

    I just saw these for sale at TJ Maxx for 299 Canadian is there any idea how much longer the software would be supported on this because I had a Fitbit and I bought the blaze near the end of its life cycle and after that when the update stopped, it was just terrible it ground to a halt

    • @AskDaveTaylor
      @AskDaveTaylor  2 роки тому

      At this point in the development of pedometers and activity trackers, I'd say there all pretty accurate +/- 5%. But no, I didn't wear a few devices and compare them, partially because I don't know which would then be correct.

    • @AskDaveTaylor
      @AskDaveTaylor  Рік тому +1

      I didn't try changing the band so cannot definitively answer, but nowadays most watches have a quick-release band mechanism.

    • @andysung9604
      @andysung9604 Рік тому

      Thanks for your info. You are right that most smart watches use the quick release mechanism however I can't find such information anywhere. The quick-release pin is usually visible but can't find a picture showing that. Now the green band one is on sale but don't like green that much.

      @@AskDaveTaylor Because of another major flaw in this watch: It does not count stairs climbed converted into floors. I will wear a stair reader (every other fitness watch I have ever seen) if I am doing a lot of stairs that day/week. The watch, when not worn, will emit a vibration every 15 minutes, which can be a problem if I set it on my nightstand. Otherwise it is great.
