Parsonver Smart Watch for Women Answer/Make Calls, 5ATM Waterproof Swim Watch, 44mm Fitness Watch with 100+ Sport Modes, Heart Rate Sleep Monitor, Fitness Tracker for Android & iPhone, Rose Gold, SR3

I ordered this smart watch to replace a Samsung Smartwatch that lasted until just beyond the warranty period ran out, before giving up the ghost entirely. To my mind both the Samsung and the Parsonver look great and these watches are some of the few waterproof watches that are ok to swim with, since swimming places particular demands upon the watch that some other fully waterproof watches can’t cope with. I need my smart watch to be rated for swimming and capable of accurately counting the laps that I swim, because I lose count so quickly. This is where the Parsonver beats the Samsung hands down. Using independent checking the Samsung rarely got the count right, whereas the Parsonver rarely gets it wrong. Therefore, with the Samsung I always needed to go through the swim lap by lap assessing the lap times to see which turns the Samsung watch had missed, which was a pain. Whereas I could rely on what the count the Parsonver watch gave. The other big benefits of the Parsonver over the Samsung were price: the Parsonver is about a 10th of the cost of the Samsung and battery life: I had to recharge my Samsung watch at least every day, which was not a problem, but I could not then use it to monitor sleep, because it was on charge. The Parsonver can last multiple days, between recharge which makes it much more usable. The main disadvantage of the Parsonver to the Samsung is online support: there are loads of videos showing how to set up the Samsung watch and all the tip and tricks that enable you to get the best out of the watch, whereas the help with Parsonver is harder to find. However, if you really are in a bind Parsonver are far more helpful than Samsung, who basically don’ want to know. Parsonver on the other hand are quick and willing to help. I am very pleased that I have swapped to this Parsonver Smart Watch, but it does make me wonder why, previously, I paid so much more for essentially an inferior product.

I bought smart watch for my sons birthday. The look is fantastic and easy to set up. We then went swimming on second day and now the watch is completely dead /black screen and no function. After his initial delight it’s now disappointment. Return in process but would prefer offer of direct replacement of watch that works as advertised.

I wanted to write an honest review after using the watch for a while. On first appearance the watch looks really nice and is not too heavy. I feel the strap could be better quality, in my opinion the strap is very flimsy and the loop that is supposed to keep the end of the strap in place moves around so I have often found it getting caught in clothing which can be a little annoying, the buckle is made of plastic too so I'm conscious it may not last well. The watch itself functions pretty well. The touch screen is good, I love all the different watch face choices. Steps are fairly accurate throughout the day as I have compared it with my phone step counter and they are not far apart. Although one morning I woke up and it said I had one 200 steps already. It monitors heart rate, oxygen, sleep and stress levels. I'm not sure how accurate the stress monitor is as there have been a few times where I have felt really stressed but it's saying mild. The sound is really good for answering calls. I dont think you can respond to messages though but I'm not overly fussed about that. I feel there should be sleep mode on the watch as at night if you dont switch off the "raise to wake" the watch will light up in the night every time you move, as well as separately having to put it to DND so you dont get notifications that wake you in the night. I havnt tried it in water as I don't really swim so I can't comment on that. In general I think it's good value for money I'm just a little disappointed with the strap.

Very impressed with this watch for the price. Easy to set up, battery is long lasting but does go down a lot faster if doing calls thru the phone. App does not store an abundance of data, like other named brands. However it does what I want it to do for a fraction of the price. Been using for awhile now and no degradation experienced

I like this though it's far from perfect. I guess you get what you pay for! It looks good and has a nice clear display but the touchscreen isn't as responsive as it probably should be. In spite of being set to UK locale, it insists on showing the date in US format (MM/DD) which is really confusing. It regularly forgets what the current day is and just shows every day as Sunday. This persists even through a restart, the only way to 'correct' it is to load a new dial. Thankfully there are a lot to choose from... The UI needs some work - settings are scattered about like confetti - some are on the watch, others are on the app, a few are on both. On the whole, I'm happy with it. There's a lot here for the price. Hopefully the minor problems can be sorted out, they all look like software issues.

Very cool

No, not Gillian Anderson, the watch, although if there’s an option for a trial wear of the former then who knows. But the watch does all the watchy things - keeps time and so on and all the gadgety bits went down well as well, daughter (the ultimate recipient) seemed delighted to be able to now get her snaps chatted and grams instantly whilst monitoring every function of herself in a stylish pink. No dolphins have yet to be harmed in testing the water resistance but then they don’t need a watch to tell them they’re smart anyway, besides, I don’t think Amazon take Sardines as payment yet and even our local great courier would draw the line at needing waders.

It can tell the difference between strokes which is good gives a bunch of data i know nothing about SWOL, notes lengths, distance and strokes. What is wildly inaccurate is the calories burned for a mile long swim it calculated on average 250 calories burned. I also can't permanently turn off sound/vibration for calls. Disappointing
