MyKronoz ZeTime Elite Hybrid Smartwatch with mechanical hands over a color touch screen – Regular Brushed Silver/Milanese

A great idea and a neat, stylish watch - but let down enormously due to appalling software. With each new update it only seems to get worse.Currently (despite re-setting, and re-pairing the phone several times) it refuses to sync the activity data with the app. This also means that it refuses to sync the time with the phone and it bizarrely loses several minutes a week.This is far from the first issue I’ve had with it. As a result I would not recommend this watch. If you’re in any doubt join the ze-time Facebook page and see for yourself how many issues people have with theirs.

Quick early review, only had this watch for 3 days so far, it's replacing my pebble round (which I loved and would have kept for longer if it was still supported but now the battery rarley lasts a day)Firstly I found the build quality to be brilliant, it's solid and expensive looking, it's quite heavy and a lot chunkier than the pebble.I can see why early adopters were not happy with it, out of the box the calibration was very difficult, the touch screen was unresponsive and I was considering returning it. But one quick firmware update fixed everything.The touch is responsive, the hands move out of the way of notifications sent from your phone. The screen is very clear and bright, easy to see in sunlight as well.I'm not 100% confident on the steps and heart rate but I hope this is a software target than a hardware issue asked will be fixed. (Whilst sitting watching TV my heart rate alert for dropping below 50 and going higher than 180... Which I don't think it did)The app (I have iPhone) lets you easily customise the watch face with different images and widgets, I have found a website with lots of realty nice faces that can be added really easily.Overall very happy with this purchase

OK so this may be one that I update as time goes on, but my first impressions are not good. I'd read comments about glitchy software so took the precaution of emailing the company to see if they'd addressed any of the issues. They said that the updates had fixed the bugs mostly. Great I thought. However that's no good if updates refuse to load. In fact it took me all evening to get that sorted because the flakey ZeTime app loses connection at the drop of a hat and the update starts again each time from the start, not from where it got to.Screen is not responsive, menu navigation is clumsy. The UI needs a lot of work.So why did I buy it? Looks great on and they might crack the issues. But I'm not sure how patient I can be when there are other things out there that already do a lot more for the same money.UPDATE : day 3 of ownership and I've thrown in the towel and started the refund. A notifier watch that can't receive notifications for some of the time is something not to be relied upon. The lost connection setting doesn't work so you don't know if the app has frozen without checking it and as soon as that happens you lose the connection. I can't send quick responses to texts, no reason for that just doesn't work. And, annoyingly, the Company fail to point out anywhere until you buy the thing that they have having trouble with some models of Huawei phone. Had that been clear upfront I'd not have bought it. Instead it's a small line in the instruction manual.The company ask for stupid amounts of user specific info to delay dealing with the issues which I'm sure are well known and widespread. Even want me to send videos of my issues. Quicker to send it back. So I have.BUYERS BE WARNED THE PRICES HAVE BEEN MASSIVELY RAMPED UP IN THE LAST DAY OR SO. I PAID £89 FOR MINE ON HERE AND NOW IT'S £50 MORE. MAYBE ITS BECAUSE THEY'LL BE SLASHED AGAIN IN A SALE? NOW EVEN LESS WORTH THE MONEY.

A unique smart watch, works with Android & apple. Just a shame Android likes top close the app on the phone, and looses connection, but that is Androids fault, not the watch. The watch has real hands, so when the screen is off, you can still see the time, this allows the battery to last the whole week! Notifications, fitness, text messages on your wrist, Awesome! The watch hands get out of the way.

Very good

If you have not got your phone with you gains time and never tells the right time

Very nice product. works vey well battery very good, only need to charge once a week.

As a kickstarter backer, I’ve had the watch for about 5 months now.Early impressions were good, with nice packaging and solid feel to the watch. Set up was rather complicated as others have said, but once up and running all seemed well. Functionality and smart capability of the Zetime was a little underwhelming, but I put this down to early adopter experience that would improve as further software releases came through.Now here’s the but!Firstly the desk stand charger I ordered to go with the watch stopped working (awaiting a replacement).Secondly, the watch now repeatedly turns itself on and off again multiple times before settling down for a few hours and then repeating the same routine. Mykronos support has been very slow and dissapointing to respond. I have sent a video (as requested) showing the watch having one it’s moments, but as yet have not heard back.I would love to be able to say this a great watch for those that want something a little different, but to be honest I can only say keep hold of your money until they have ironed out these issues.
