ZKSSGY Fitness Tracker

Great budget fitness tracker
I’ve been using this fitness tracker for few days now and honestly, I didn’t expect much for the price — but it’s been great so far. The screen is sharp and bright even outside, and the watch itself is super lightweight.It tracks my steps and sleep pretty well (I definitely sleep less than I thought 😅). The heart rate features seem accurate enough for everyday tracking. I tested the heart rate against another device and they were within a couple points. Battery life is solid — I used it pretty actively the first few days (switching watch faces, checking stats often). One of my favorite features is the message alerts — it vibrates gently when I get a text or WhatsApp, so I can check quickly without reaching for my phone every time.Overall, for about $30, it’s a great little watch. Might not be as flashy as a high-end smartwatch, but it does the job and then some. Would definitely recommend if you just want something simple, reliable, and budget-friendly.

UPDATE … sleep function is a joke, step tracker doesn’t get hundreds of steps, JUNK, IT DIED
Really the final update …. This fitness watch died.FINAL UPDATE – I had high hopes for this fitness tracker, sadly it has failed to accurately record two very important functions. The sleep function is a joke. It records me as being in light sleep hours after I am awake, out of bed and active. The step function misses so many of my steps that the count is at least 1000+ steps less than my actual daily step count. The only function that I trust is the time. That appears to be accurate. My final disappointment is the scrolling function. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t work. So, if you are looking for a watch just to tell time, you might be satisfied with this item.Modified original review – This fitness track watch came with inadequate instructions. I figured out most things by trial and error. I sent a question to the seller. The answer solved my problem.I like the size and black color of this fitness tracker watch. Although, I find the band a much longer than my FITBIT, it will likely be okay for a much bigger wrist. My wrist is small. My biggest issue with this watch is that scrolling to access functions doesn’t work half the time I try to use it.I have worn a Fitbit for several years which I used primarily for measuring my steps and evaluating my sleep quality. The sleep quality function stopped working long ago. I decided to try this inexpensive fitness track. It has more features than my other fitness tracker. For the price, it’s fine. I will update if my opinion changes. I have only used this watch for a couple of days.1st UPDATE – The sleep function is a joke. It indicates that I am in light sleep hours after I am awake and active. Because of this inaccuracy, I question the validity of the indications for other sleep stages.2nd Update – The step function does not record steps accurately. At the end of the day, I am more than 1000 steps short on this tracker. I tested it twice and confirmed that it misses many steps.The only thing that I trust on this watch is the time and date.

Cheap but usable
Doesn’t sync with my phone (Pixel 8 Pro) unless I manually open the app. I have to do this occasionally to correct a slight drift in the time. This makes it useless for getting notifications. Otherwise, does what I want, which is monitor my heart rate, blood pressure, body temp, and blood oxygen. I assume these are all accurate. The numbers look believable. The sleep tracking function is garbage though.The screen is very readable and has a number of nice layouts. Setting it up was easy enough.Then again, if I’d wanted a proper smart watch, I’d have paid a LOT more money. When this one bites the dust, it’s a coin toss whether I’ll buy another.

You Get What You Pay For
There are only two things I want from a smart watch: to track my steps and tell time. This watch can’t do either accurately.Comparing my daily steps with my phone, this watch is consistently off by 2,000 steps, regardless of how many total steps I end up with at the end of the day.The clock is off by 1 minute as well, and there seems to be no means of manually setting the time. According to the instructions, it’s supposed to set the time by connecting with my phone, and yet it doesn’t match my phone’s time.Lastly, the customizability of the watch face is pretty lousy. To be fair, there is a decent variety of preset watch faces that you can download via the app, but none of them look great, in my opinion. They’re either overly cluttered with information, making the numbers too small to read easily, or I have to limit the display to a simple time and date. There’s also a ton of pages for different features that I don’t use, which I have to sift through any time I want to switch between the step count page and clock page. It would be nice if you could customize the watch to only show the pages you actually use.
