I reviewed the Xiaomi Watch S1 and S1 active this time last year, and I thought both watches were excellent. As a keen runner and cyclist, I am a bit more of a Garmin man myself, but if I wanted to go for a less fitness focussed smartwatch, I’d certainly be looking at Xiaomi as…
The Huawei Watch Fit 2 was launched back in May alongside the excellent Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro. This new smartwatch builds upon the excellent Huawei Watch Fit, which launched last year with a new larger display, additional fitness features and Bluetooth calling. Huawei Watch Fit 2 vs Watch Fit Features & Specification Active, Classic…
The way in which the gambling industry has changed over the past few decades has been incredible to witness. No one would have imagined 30 years ago that rather than placing bets at your local betting shop, you would be able to do it all on the computer in your own home. Then, the next…
If you liked the look of the Huawei Watch GT Pro, you will likely love the Zepp Z. While I have not seen this in real life yet, it looks to be the best interpretation of a pilot watch in smartwatch form to date. The new Zepp Z is the second watch to launch while…
The smartwatch market has been relatively slow to take off. But demand for intelligent wearable devices has grown consistently year-on-year and is now bigger than ever.

Following the success of the original TicWatch S and E they have now been following up with a second generation featuring the more powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 2100 chipset….
During the Mate 20 announcement, Huawei also announced the new Watch GT and I found it almost as exciting as the phone release. As much as I love my Garmin Fenix 5 it cost me £350, and the plus models are about £600 and while they are technically smartwatches, they lack a lot of smartwatch…
The new iPhone may get all the attention and they look beautiful but let’s face it, its just the same old with some insane price options (£1400+!). I am a little more excited about the Apple Watch 4. The smartwatch scene has stagnated a little especially with Wear OS, this will hopefully improve with the Qualcomm Snapdragon…
The Android-based Wear OS platform has been getting a little long in the tooth with the platform struggling to gain traction, this has partly been down to no new system on chip being launched for it in the past 3 years. The Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 3100 is the first new chip to land for the wearables platform…
**Update on Instructions** I have had a few enquiries on how to use the Letsfit Smart Band, therefore in a recent review of a fitness tracker that is essentially the same I have gone into much more detail on how to set up and use these budget fitness trackers, and the guide will work for…
