  • Casio has recently released one of their all time best watches ever: the DW-H5600. It belongs to the G-Shock G-Squad family and it features an excpetional MIP display, a heart rate sensor and a similar functionality as the GBD-H2000. Oh and it's also solar powered. These new G-Shock models also have the most iconic Casio design, the square one. So yeah guys, you need to get yourself a DW-H5600.

    The new squares looks wonderfull... hope that in the future Casio will release a version without the fitness crap... just with a Solar+BT will suffice.

      @@kasperkosminen2679 True, but it would be better with the MIP display maybe in the future when Casio can improve the refresh rate so the watch can display to 1/100th of a second like the standard G-Shocks and other models with the standard digital displays. I’m sure it will be coming eventually just in time for current G-Shock square owners to get tired of their current watches and be enticed to buy a new improved version. All companies who manufacture electronics have been pulling this stunt for decades.

    I got a black H5600 and it is fantastic. I was coming off of a marathon TSAR and love the additional functionality and size. If you are expecting the tech functions of an Apple Watch you may be disappointed. But, for non smart watch people this is a great transitional watch. I use it at the gym and yoga class to track workouts, calories burned throughout the day and sleep patterns.

    They might have solar power, but the battery life is shorter than the GBD-200 even on the highest power saving mode, so it’s not really an improvement in that sense.
    The main reason why this watch is better than the GBD is because of the extra health sensors.
    All we want from Casio is a regular DW5600 with a MIP display, tough solar, maybe some convenience features like sunrise/sunset, and maybe some better textures button. Why even try to compete with an Apple Watch when a dedicated smart watch will always be better for smart stuff.
    Still, not a bad watch.

    Thanks for this review and comparison. I have the GBD-200 and I totally agree with you about NOT connecting to the Bluetooth interface. All those notifications aggravate me more than it should.
    I must add that it's not as expensive and, mine anyways, is "deadly accurate" i.e. it doesn't need to adjusted before many weeks.
    I enjoyed watching your video. Bravo!

      @TheBoldHairspring  Рік тому +2

      Hi there! I've listed all the dimensions, including the height of the watch. During the time I spent with these watches I didn't find them uncomfortable 🤷🏼. And yes, it is a very biased video. All of my videos are biased. I review only the watches that I like. If I'm offered to review something I don't personally like, I reject to do it. This is precisely why I don't do G-shock videos so often. Most of the new releases are not my cup of tea. The same goes for Aliexpress watches and microbrands. My time for videos is limited, so I make sure I film watches that I really like and the dw-5600 is one of them. I guess I could've said that some people may find them uncomfortable but it didn't really cross my mind at the time.

      Unfortunately, I don't. I got them on loan, but if I had to buy one I'd probably go for the square. I just don't need the extra training modes and the GPS, and as you said, it's cheaper. I also like the more iconic design. I have like 7-8 g-shocks, but I don't own a square, so that's a big reason why I'm leaning towards it. The h2000 is great, though, especially if you like bigger watches. It has a lot of wrist presence.
