    Detailed Test Results

    Overall this model was somewhat easy to use, very accurate for counting steps. With recent version iPhones, our experts found it very difficult to pair, very easy to synch, very easy to interact with, and likewise for recent version Android phones, somewhat difficult to pair, very difficult to synch, and very easy to interact with. It is somewhat difficult to attach to the body, very easy to recharge the battery, and claims to be water resistant down to 164 feet; however, we confirmed it is water resistant down to 98 feet.
