      I test watches for fun! During the day pay the mortgage with the title of QA Software Engineer. Over the decades I have also tested hardware for various companies. Back in 2013 I purchase a Fitbit One fitness tracker and since then, yep, over 60 gadgets have come and gone into my techie life... I don't spend much of my own money for my CZcams Channel became monetized back in 2020 and slowly more ad revenue has allowed me to purchase more gadgets to test. I find coupons and discounts whenever possible and once in a Blue Moon companies will send me free products to test (no contract, no script, no limitations). As for the reMarkable 2 tablet that I was taking notes on during this video, yes, that is one my favorites gadgets over the past two years for I use daily to jot down ideas, take notes for work, draw, entertain kids on road trips, read eBooks, and 44 other uses.

      My wrist is 7 inches in circumference. And yeah, these larger watches are not for everyone. It took me over a week feeling comfortable or rather desensitizing myself to sleeping with a larger watch like the Fenix 6X. For some strange reason it feels far more comfortable around my left wrist and then I wear either my Apple Watch 6 or my Samsung Galaxy Watch4 around my right wrist. Oh wait, and then my Oura Ring too 😁. My daily gadgets when I am not doing a testing project are:
      1. Apple Watch (6 or 7 series)
      2. Garmin Fenix 6X, Instinct Solar, vivomove style
      3. Oura Ring Gen 2
      4. Oura Ring Gen 3 (I decided to keep wearing by gen 2 and 3 of those OURA smart rings to conduct a year-long study comparison of the health metrics)

    • @PeterHerget
      @PeterHerget  Před 2 lety +1

      Both! Yes, I have notes from 14 months ago and there are over 1,000 pages of notes, 20 eBooks. The battery life normally lasts me one week. If I put it into airplane mode it can easily last over two weeks (depending on use). I normally use my mine one hour to 90 minutes a day and still only charge it one or twice a week for one hour or so. I'll be releasing a new video about the reMarkable 2 e-ink tablet later this week...

The Garmin Instinct Solar, yes, displays the name and or a number of the phone call coming into your connected smartphone if, and ONLY if the smartphone is within Bluetooth range. The Casio does bout the same thing. Neither of the watches reviewed in this video offers an internal nano-chip nor a speakerphone to talk or take the phone call directly on the watch. If you truly desire a 100% honest smartphone for taking calls like Dick Tracey you have two options:
      1. An Apple Watch
      2. A Samsung Galaxy Watch

It is that the battery tells me Low and the bars do not charge, I have been using it for 2 or 3 days and the battery level does not rise.
