    Great video! But I have to say I absolutely disagree when you say it’ll be out of date within 2 years. It has the triple sensor like the master of G, that alone makes this watch a steal in my opinion. The rest notifications, HR, etc is just icing on the cake. Just my two cents.

      i agree, it has even an app for updates... so i suppose this watch is like the rest of the GSHOCK like the mudmaster longtime...use....SOLAR POWERED and smartphone link.

    Yesterday he was on my wrist. Just to try it. After him I try Rangeman. Basically it's a similar watch but Rangeman is way too bigger. Wrist, and complete wearing this mashine is outstanding!

    Thanks for this brief, informative review. I own the Rangeman and consider it to be an absolute GAME CHANGER because of its advanced technology for outdoor tactical functions combined w/ sapphire crystal & the usual G-Shock toughness. This model strikes me as the Rangeman’s “urban cousin” and perhaps can be compared to other fitness watches (e.g. Garmin Fenix, Apple Watch, etc.). As such, your prediction that the GBD-H1000 will be outdated in 2 years is a certainty for its competitors that get updated annually and far less likely for a mid-tier G- Shock loaded with the latest technology.

  • @edwinthomas618
    @edwinthomas618 3 роки тому +1

    Yes...it may be outdated but the person functions may not be. For example I love the Casio Personal Trainer Illuminator JC-30...90s watch. It is a great watch and I have 2 extras for back up. Now since I've gotten this H1000 it serves no purpose. However, it took decade.

    My concern with all the bluetooth G Shocks is that they will lose a chunk of functionality/convenience if Casio stops supporting the Connected app, or stops supporting older models. G Shocks now are still running after 20, 30 years, but what about the apps in the future?

  • @geopapa80

    This watch looks good but it has very tough competition from garmin solar instinct. Both rugged (gshock is more rugged), both solar assisted and infinite battery if used only as watches, but the garmin has way more features and new ones are often added through firmware.
    I think Casio should add more features and activities to this watch to compete with the garmin.

    Hello watch geek ... I would be great full indeed if you review the Garmin Instinct Solar ... I think it is an under estimated real affordable outdoor watch ... Am keen to know your professional detailed feedback ... Does it use gps to update height, sunrise, sunset and time? ... Thanks alot for really well produced and informative videos 😉👍

  • @entername3840

    This watch has an amazing battery, Casio has done the impossible here. Heart rate, gps, the rugged structure they almost nailed it with the 2 years of battery. However, the price, the complexity in the user interface, the sluggish ness of the gps all is a setback. Especially the price is one of the setbacks due to which i am straying away from this there are smartwatches out there which is rugged and does more for half the cost.

    I’d really like to buy this watch but two things put me off.
    1. I don’t like the negative style screen. I prefer dark digits on a light background.
    2. Why do Casio watches have no option to change the date format?
    I live in the UK. We use the format ‘Day/Month/Year’ not ‘Month/Day/Year’. I find this really annoying.
    Rant over. 😛

    It’s good but it’s cheaply made. The buckle, buttons and strap feel like cheap plastic. Like they were worried they’d undercut the Rangeman and deliberately included compromises (I have a $70 G shock with better buckle, button, strap quality. It’s really bad).
