hmmm, I had bad experiences.
1) activity tracking is fake. Turn over on sofa, get told "congrats! you finished your activity"
2) sleep tracking is fake. Forget to wear it, get told "You slept great!
3) water proof is useless. I bought it because I was going to be surfing and wanted to know if it was close to time to meet up with others. But, while it is water proof you can't use it if the screen is wet
4) Not good for telling time - because often I'd twist my wrist and the face would not light up, try again fail, try again fail, RAGE! get out other hand to manually wake it up
