Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Stand-alone phone
The Z is the only smartwatch capable of working as a phone without the need to sync to an existing smartphone.
Pro Decent camera on-board
There's a camera just above the screen on the band. It can take 5MP stills, or record 720p video.
Pro Customizable UI
The UI was designerd in-house. It ships with the Google Play Store, and runs full Android version 4.4 allowing for lots of customization.
Pro Good product for the price
It's a great option if you're not looking to invest a lot of money but still want a tracker with a decent set of features.
Pro Same functionality of competitors for half the price or less
You get step tracking, sleep tracking, vibrate notifications, call notifications, clock, alarm, custom actions (via third party apps), heart rate reader (albeit not the most precise one) for the fraction of the cost of the competitors.
Cons
Con Slow data speeds
2G speeds are very slow compared to 3G, and especially LTE. You will not be happily streaming all day long.
Con Very unreliable build quality
There are many reports of the track malfunctioning right out of the box or after only a few hours of use. This includes the LED display not working, the heart rate function not working, and buyers being sent used products.
Con Heart rate monitor is very unreliable
Along with frequently not working at all, it has a tendency to be quite inaccurate. It struggles to read the HR when you're sweating as well so isn't useful during exercise.
