Exactly! I used the notification functions on my GBD-H1000 for an hour and will never use it again. Having it go off every single time you get an email was extremely annoying.
The step count and the timer is a good addition but they forgot the most important and probably the most basic feature of all. Which reminder. Something like make a beep every 30mins to remind me to stand up and move my ass
Damn ive seen this watch at the mall a couple times before. Never thought its actually a smart watch. I gotta say this is the best looking smart watch of all out there. As a fitness watch, it does a great job. As a smart watch with notifications and all, its amazing too. Too bad how i already have so many G shocks already. I dont want to put them down. or I will definitely get one of these. great video too. Thanks for posting. God bless you
I just bought that watch and I have to tell my negative opinion of it, so people know before buying. So the main reason I bought it is because I need a watch that I don't have to charge and that I can connect to my phone so that it vibrates while I have an incoming phone call. Watching a lot of review videos of it, everyone mentioned the notifications that you can turn them all on/off, that you can turn the vibration and sound on/off. And that is ok. But no one mentioned that the vibration during a call is one very short vibration at the start of the call and THAT IS IT. There is no way you will feel it when you are in a condition where it is noisy. I thought the vibration will be continuous while my phone is ringing. No. Also the beep sound is one short beep at the start and that is it. So for me it is useless in that aspect. If there is a possibility to get a software update where they can change the duration of the vibration and maybe intensity, then I would be happy with it.
@@maksimryabovol4592 I didn't find a watch similar to this one but I bought an amazfit trex 2 and I am happy with it. I have to charge it but the battery lasts for 30 days, even more.
This is the type of watch I would say yes. The multiply timer was pretty cool thing. I hope the vibration in the watch is strongb enought to wake me up in the morning. Casio should try neon light strip around inside the watch to display the time. The watch is smartly made, the next generation should the twin should be solar and incorporate the blue or green neon light on it.
i'd gladly take a stripped down version with just the new display and no phone connectivity and fitness features. like the 5600 but with an updated screen. i'd buy that for sure
I’m interested in this watch for the display and step tracking. Not interested in the notifications and that seems to be the biggest complaint, too many notifications. I assume the step tracking still works fine even if never paired with a phone.
My last apple watch will be the watch 6 , i sold it out dont want that which i need to charge every day its useless , i brought an omega seamaster but needs a gshock for my other activities badly …
@@bigdarshan smart watches are ugly. I switched to smart watches because I like to count my steps. I love the look of the g shock, and this literally combines the best of both worlds for me. A pedometer in a watch that I actually want to wear. Match made in heaven. Can’t wait for mine to arrive
I just bought this and there is no hourly chime function which is the most underrated and very useful function and that kinda sucks. Thinking to return it.
Hi guys. I am asking for your help. Please can anyone tell me whether the watch displays the caller id together with the phone call notification? And is the Bluetooth range long enough to walk around the house without the phone and still get the notifications? Another question: is there a way to set up a scheluled DND mode or something like that for the night? If so, this is the perfect watch for me. I was unable to find these informations online. Your help is greatly appreciated since this watch is quite expensive in my country - well at least for me - just to buy and try.
Purchased this recently and it is a nice looking watch and design but it's very small. Bands are thinner co pared to other gshocks. If it was a bit more bigger I'd give it a 10/10
Stompwatch really have just seconds precision? Looks so bad without the cents running.... More like a time than a chrono. There is any possibility to active them?
If you could just have the txt msg notification by itself that could be so cool but if you getting mails combine how are you gonna know if you getting a text msg
Hi man! Is the light uniform or one of the sides looks a little bit brithter? I've seen that the left side seems to be a little bit brighter in many watches of this version.
Only down fall I have run into is you must sync it with the app on your phone before midnight or the activities don't get recorded, if you need heart rate use a smart ring, I use the Oura gen 3 even with my apple watch ultra and other watches since I love a good Swiss mech for most of my daily drivers. The only big downside is it's not a solar model, that way battery life wouldn't be an issue. For the price its not a bad choice. especially since its a Casio and it will take a beating.
I’m surprised there isn’t a normal G Shock basic timer, they’re handy to timing a boiled egg or whatever, could the workouts be utilised as normal timers?
I just ordered from Amazon... Feeling like canceling.. hearing many negative things .. one it's the battery. Why didn't they make this solar, would of definitely be the perfect watch, as it great for outdoors. Also would be great if it had the Band 6 feature.
Is the battery rechargable? For me it looks that it has some essential features that are placed in other chinese watches, like step counter, training tracking, etc But it lacks the heartbea apparently. And the notifications doesnt seem all thet funcional for me. Still it's a very beautiful and discreet watch, the looks are great, just like a DW5600. I think id enjoy using, still I think it should have heartbeat monitoring and rechargable battery to be a serious fitness tracker .
Yes. You can do that. You have just go into notification menu on the watch next press and hold disp button for couple of sec. Now you can set if you need notifications on, off or off only during running. Cheers 🙂
Don’t know if you’re going to respond, but for notifications, do you have to go through the menu? Or does it show on the screen when you receive one and it vibrates like how any other smartwatch would.
The pop up notification is just a generic type and subject style alert but the main body is only accessible through the menu. TBH…the notification function on this watch is more just to alert you to check your phone but it serves that purpose well without dragging you into full on message reading or call taking during your workouts. It’s not an Apple Watch after all…it’s a sports focused G-SHOCK.
It attempts to. But not accurately. If you want to accurately track calories burned, don’t get this watch. Like others have said, buy it if you like the looks, but not based on its features.
Hey man I really have a question, what exact model is it? Yes, I know it's a gbd 200 but there's is 9dr 1dr 2dr you get it, so what's the exact model that have these notifications
Iv been going to the gym for the better part of my adult life... Iv never seen anyone using a watch to simultaneously time 4 different workout activities. Iv never heard anyone say they need this. This is a landfill product.
I own one of these but I regret it now considering the poor bluetooth networking. The watch unpairs itself frequently & it takes me minutes literally to pair them up again. 3-4 pairing & waiting it to get connected everyday.
I have neon green but it got dirt so fast I'm so sad now someone please help me how to clean perfectly I have try cleaning it by soda vinegar soap toothpaste it doesn't work
Anyone figure out how to update the software if any available? When I double click on the “version” under the ABOUT THE APP heading, it opens up which maybe is a hidden menu and has the update option on that menu, but when I attempt to update, it says UPDATE FAILED? Maybe there is no update and that’s why it fails?? If anyone knows I’d appreciate the advice. Thx
whats the problem ? you can pick and choose notifications on your phone . this will mirror on the watch. for instance i dont like it beeping every 20 seconds showing android intelligence telling me what song is in the background so i disable that in the phone and it doesn't annoy me on the watch
Can you set your workouts such that you don’t have to use the phone with the watch? I am a swimmer and need a watch that vibrates under water for me to know to switch to the next workout while swimming. All of this without a phone.
You can - You'll hold the FWD button on the Workout timer screen. You can then set the number of times that the program repeats (sets). Then you can select each of the 5 workouts to manually set the duration of each. My only complaint is that when you set it this way you can't just hold the button to increase or decrease a number (you'll have to push the up/down button repeatedly) but you can do pretty much everything without a phone. The only thing you can't do from the watch is rename the workout labels (you can do this through the phone app.)
Buy it for the looks, not for the functions. The design looks awesome and slick.
That's what I did. It's my daily watch and do not use any of the functions whatsoever.
Was the vibration strong enough to wake you up for work? That's exactly what I think everyone wants to know. Thanks

I wear this more than my Tudor now. I just absolutely love the display, I don’t really care about functions just easy of use with quick time reading
I love how negative displays look, but hate how hard they are to read. This is so much better than all my neg-display Casios.

Does this watch have vibrations for notifications and alarms?
how is the glass scratch resistance?

Nice review, old watches used to have flip negative to positive and vise versa wondering how come they don’t have this features in 2021
I see no problem, in reality the display with MIP (Memory In Pixel) technology especially on this model is perfectly readable ...
Yes it's not an LCD screen that's why
Questions, does this watch come with hourly signal (beep) and battery life? If it does, i haven't been able to find it.
Does it have a countdown timer

Is there a way to completely turn off notifications but leave Bluetooth on for running tracking accuracy?
Yes. You can do that. You have just go into notification menu on the watch next press and hold disp button for couple of sec. Now you can set if you need notifications on, off or off only during running. Cheers 🙂
