I recently started doing quite a big of exercise, and decided to get myself a smartwatch to help me monitor that. This one on AliExpress caught my eye.

The Ad

I had previously bought several other models for my wife, all of which had performed well and worked as advertised, so I was reasonably confident about the shop and their product.

The "ad" went on stating the following:

Exciting stuff - further explained later:

Apparently it also supports games:

The dual timezone feature is cool:

The Reality

Unfortunately, the reality have very little to do with the advertised product. The following features are completely missing/absent:

  1. GPS Tracking - It is unclear how this is intended to work, BUT the ad clearly show a watch with the map on the display itself. This feature simply does not exist.
  1. Wireless Charging - The watch received got a cable with a magnetic connector with two leads. There is absolutely nothing wireless about that and eventually those two connection points will fail.
  1. Games - I don't personally care about this but the feature is simply not there.
  1. Dual Timezone Watch Face - Could be very convenient for me but the feature is not there.
  1. NFC - Not included.

In short, a LOT of features advertised that are not really there.
