Detailed Test Results

Overall this model was typical in how easy it was to use and did not do a good job for counting steps. With recent version iPhones, our experts found it difficult to pair, somewhat easy to synch, somewhat easy to interact with, and likewise for recent version Android phones, difficult to pair, somewhat easy to synch, and somewhat easy to interact with. It is very easy to attach to the body. In our water immersion test it passed the manufacturer's claim of 164 feet.
