The time automatically stays synced to your connected smartphone. So when you cross time zones, the Activité Pop will automatically adjust the time for you.
Cons
Con Unfinished
The Qualcomm Toq has been considered a great showcase for Mirasol technology but many say it is not consumer ready.
Con Low Quality Watchband
The Toq requires that you physically cut the watch to fit your wrist. Therefore sharing your Toq won't be possible and you better hope you get it right the first time.
Con Price
The Toq costs $249 which is pricey, especially considering that it doesn't run a major OS and the future of the software is doubtful at best.
Con No Microphone, Camera, or Speaker
Like the Pebble Steel, no camera, microphone, or speaker eliminates a lot of possibilities like talking to your smartwatch or videochatting on your watch.
Con Watch bands are low quality and fairly unprofessional in appearance
The overall design makes it feel like there is confusion as to who the target market is for the tracker.
The watch face is sleek and professional in appearance, looking more like a regular watch than a tracker. However the bands available for the watch are made from a cheap-looking silicone. If you wish to buy a replacement band, they are only available in three bright colors (orange, plum, and teal).
Con Sometimes has issues with condensation inside the glass
The watch is supposed to be water resistant up to 50m. However some of the watches have loose backs which causes condensation to build inside the watch, especially after hot showers.
Con Difficult to read in poor lighting
The watch face doesn't have a backlight and the hands don't glow, so it's near impossible to read the time in dark settings without external light.
