Built-in GPS plus compass and barometric altimeter support outdoor navigation and activity tracking.
The large AMOLED display and button controls provide a distinct alternative to a touch-operated watch.
The listed 24-day battery life is useful for buyers who want less frequent charging, subject to use and operating mode.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The title identifies a 50 mm AMOLED model, while a generic feature field lists Solar Charging. The listing also names 24 days without a mode in the battery field, although product-specific copy says up to 24 days in smartwatch mode. Treat solar charging as unconfirmed for this AMOLED version and the battery figure as a stated mode-specific claim, not a guaranteed duration. The listing separately describes 10 ATM and MIL-STD-810 resistance, while its technical field only says Water Resistant and gives 100 meters. Verify the exact variant and applicable protection details before relying on those claims. Health measurements are estimates, not medical advice, and Pulse Ox availability varies by country.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the battery last?

The listing states up to 24 days in smartwatch mode. Battery life can depend on settings and use, and the product details do not provide a separate figure for other modes.

Does this model charge with solar power?

The title describes the 50 mm AMOLED version, but a generic feature field also lists Solar Charging. Solar charging is therefore unconfirmed for this specific variant. Check the selected model details before buying.

Can it be used for swimming?

The product copy describes a 10 ATM water rating, while a technical field says Water Resistant and lists 100 meters. Confirm the exact rating and applicable use guidance for the selected version.

Do emergency assistance features work without a phone?

The listing says incident detection and Assistance need setup and a paired smartphone in an area with network coverage and data connectivity.

Are the health readings medical measurements?

No. The manufacturer says the watch is not a medical device and that its data is intended as a close estimation. Pulse Ox is not available in all countries.
