In all honesty, I should have just gotten a Fitbit activity tracker. The case-back is a stainless steel and has an opening in the middle for the heart-rate sensor. Note the three connection pins on the right of the heart-rate sensor. This is the plug for the USB charging cable to connect to the watch. The large backlit black-and-white negative screen LCD is better suited to minimise power consumption and provides clear and visible readouts, even in direct sunlight. The MIP LCD screen is an energy saving display that is actually brighter in the sunlight and one of the most legible digital displays available in the market today.
If you want a less techy watch, Casio’s range of connected G-Shock watches like the GST-B400 G Steel may fit the bill. These models all have basic smartwatch connectivity, but no notifications. Tracking workouts with the GSW-H1000 made me a little concerned about the accuracy of its data. I noticed unexpected differences to what I’m used to seeing with calorie count and heart rate, and compared it to the Apple Watch Series 6. The G-Shock recorded half the calorie burn, and the average heart rate was totaled as 106 beats-per-minute compared to the Apple Watch’s estimate of 115BPM. Like the GBD-H1000, the emphasis seems to be on running, although there are plenty of other workouts to track, including biking, kayaking, fishing, and surfing.
If you want the sports tracking function, other brands make better choices. I bought this watch just because of the technology being introduced. As such, I may not be the best person to give a review on the functionalities. If you are interested to know more, there are a number of detailed reviews which you can find on the web to satisfy your interest. For more information about the watch, I have attached the manual at the end of this review.
Represented in the wristwatch segment for some time, solar charging functions in the smartwatch sector have so far been few and far between and can only be found in the outdoor area. Even if the GBD-H1000 is not a smartwatch as such, g shock watch the translucent display is heading in the right direction. A pure solar charge is not yet possible or is only possible with great difficulty, but this option would be extremely conceivable for the future smartwatch market.
