 shaver 1000 here today I'm going to do an update on my Fitbit watch that someone graciously sent me thank you again very much and I'm gonna go over some of the things I like about it and some things I don't care about it that could be you know improved upon you know kind of like an honest update like I do all my reviews and updates are honest you know if I don't like it I'll tell you if I think it's junk I'll tell you if I think it's good and I recommend it I'll tell you but so let's go ahead and cover some things on about this watch and you know your results may vary as always you know you might like something that I don't you might use something more than than I do but in my opinion for my application you know your application may be different my application is what I'm going to give my my opinions on so stick around and let's talk about this watch okay so I'm gonna try to keep in frame as much as possible here I've got the watch on so you know it may be upside down this is the Fitbit Versa 3 the smart watch and GPS it does all kinds of different stuff it you know it will monitor your your beats per minute and you can it'll keep track of how many steps you take how many flights of stairs you did what it does not have I think some of the other ones do is it doesn't it won't it doesn't give me my skin temperature I would like that one of the other things is the the music okay you can't play your music from your phone with the watch you have to have Spotify Deezer or Pandora okay now I do have Pandora and I have Spotify but I have the free versions and this will not work with the free versions you have to pay extra for that I don't like that you know they took away that you know you've got your own music I I just don't I don't care for that like on the back here you know workout music well you know what you know what if you have your own playlist of workout music that that you'd like to hear you can't do it okay that's another thing in here let's talk about the app for a moment okay this app has whatsoever has no bearing on my battery life on this phone I leave this app on 24-7 and I have not noticed any difference in my battery usage at all so that's excellent that's awesome this app takes up no battery you know some apps like especially game apps of course you're playing games but you know what I mean some apps will lower your battery life or you know it'll make your battery go dead quicker I do like that I do like that it I can monitor my sleep like last night I got an 88% which is good so five hours and 28 minutes of sleep is what I got last night well early this morning actually I usually try to sleep around 3 a.m. but I was I was awake 40 minutes of that that time I was in a deep sleep for 59 minutes and a 14% REM which is rapid eye movement so it was 94% below resting which was my sleeping heart rate seven so I had 7% restlessness okay now I can also look at that on my watch here and and go to my watch I can slide it over and hit today and then I can there's my steps I've taken 1371 steps today distance almost a mile point five nine of a mile I didn't climb any floors any steps calories burned I burnt 1,434 I've got the active zone I don't log my water hourly activity two hours heart rate like rate like my beats per minute was 88 resting right now it's 116 117 sleep there's my sleep oxygen saturation while sleeping was 92% so that's pretty good if I click on that then I get an in-depth of you know what was I had out of out of all my sleep 58% of it which was 3 hours 34 minutes was light sleep I am a very light sleeper so and I can open that on my phone from here okay so I I do like that I like that a lot okay and like I said I do like the app it's easy to use okay like I said right now my heart my beats per minutes 116 so and you can log your food what food intake you've got and or you know keep track of what you ate and stuff like that now what I don't like is okay first let's go let's go to my steps I'm gonna click on my steps here okay now I don't know how we can see this this week I have 8,372 steps okay and the week of January 30th through February 5th 17,939 steps and I did I did get to watch January 29th which was I did 1,133 steps okay now that's that's cool okay that's all that's all well and good now also you can you know see your peak when you've walked the most and all that so it does all different kinds of stuff now but if I go up here and click my little face icon and then I click my name on my face here I got badges and trophies okay so if I click on that there's my badges and trophies I've got I've got no badges and trophies okay so it says get stepping during badges earns your first badge at 5,000 steps happy stepping and as you saw I have no badges hmm I guess a lot of people are having trouble with that then now they will tell you they will tell you that it doesn't you can't get badges or trophies by logging your own steps which I don't why would I do that when I have this thing to do it for me now so I've never done that I don't know why I don't know why it's it's not giving me any trophies or anything yet I mean I should have gotten something by now so I'm gonna get a hold of them which I can get a hold of them also you can your stress management you can do that like I said the music thing I don't care for the band is rubber I know I was never a big fan of rubber you know you get sweaty we're here in Florida you know it might be piddly but I wish they they had some other source of a band or do something about the band also this watch face you can get what watch faces but a lot of them the really cool ones you got to pay for now I am on premium see I'm on the Fitbit premium which is $80 a year 79 something it's $80 a year and there's only so many watch faces that you can you can download and get on here most of the well 90% of the cool ones you got to pay for I mean I think they should give you more for 80 bucks they should give you you know more options on the watch faces like I said it's all my personal opinion you know I know there's gonna be some stuff I'm missing out on so I'm not sure what's going on with the steps why they're not calculating it or why I'm not getting my badge you know I should have had at least one badge for my first 5000 you can track your mindfulness your daily readiness it will remind me when I've got like a bedtime I've got it set for 330 if I'm not asleep by 330 it will buzz and it'll it'll say you know you know it's time to take a break and recharge or rest or it'll say you know it's almost bedtime now it doesn't say it in a voice you look at it and it'll tell you on the screen so to remind me now I have it set that way you can set it for whatever you want you don't have to have it set so the battery life I'm at 47% now which I could probably show you on here yeah 47% battery life that's that's for my watch I charge this thing on Monday this is Thursday another thing about charging the longest I went I went four days it was down to I think it was 37% it took maybe an hour I'm guessing I know I checked it an hour and it was fully charged so it could have took less than that awesome it does have they say it will go five to six days without charging I think in my application it would but again if you're listening music if you're doing a lot of other stuff on this watch it of course it's going it's not going to last you as long but my case like I said I have not charged it since Monday I'm still a 57% so that's three days so in my application I believe it would last the six days also I do like the fact that I can receive text on here I can receive notifications from Facebook on here from YouTube on here I can get messages from Facebook Messenger and I can actually reply to them from here it will also if someone's calling me like right down there at the bottom that's what it looks like you know I can answer the phone answer my phone from here of course my phone has to be with me but that's pretty cool that I can do it right here if I got my phone put away somewhere I don't have to dig it out I can do it right here on this so like I said there is room for improvement the music thing's a big thing because music is a big part of my life and I don't think I mean okay you give us three choices and you you know but if you're if you if you're on the free version of it it won't let you use it it says you have a problem with your account you go to your account and wants you to upgrade of course you got to pay for I don't I don't want to I want to be able to listen to my own music on here for my phone I'm gonna hear my own stuff you know if I want to hear a radio I'll bring a radio with me but all in all yeah I'm happy with it like there is an app on here it does so much more guys but you got Spotify Deezer Pandora and you also got Starbucks if I hit on Starbucks here it says no no Starbucks card of course I don't go to Starbucks I don't drink coffee it says add your card inside the Fitbit mobile app so that's another thing I mean you know why can I have a different app you know on here that that I use quite a bit you know a part store app or something you know it gives me Starbucks not everybody's into Starbucks I know a lot of y'all there's nothing wrong with that it's just there should be more options for people who don't drink coffee who want one another app the price of this thing is it's very expensive it's like 230 bucks now so I'm not gonna sit here and tell you guys you need to go out and buy one bag borrow still steal the money to get one no I'm saying that you know I would never have one monkey even mentioned when I did my unboxing of this in my initial review that she's been wanting one for a long time and couldn't afford it it's not for everybody I wouldn't have it if someone hadn't graciously sent this to me so and I'm glad they didn't I really really do appreciate it so I'm not cutting the watch down I'm just giving my honest opinions on the things I like and dislike about this watch longevity like I said I don't know I've only had it a couple weeks so like I said I don't understand why can't use my music it's it's it's Wi-Fi it's it's Bluetooth why can't I use my music that is a big downer for me if you've got the money and you're looking for one I believe this is the newest one out I would say yes absolutely I would I would say yes to this because it is very handy it's very helpful especially if you're in the fitness or I mean you know if you've got you know heart conditions or whatever like I have this is a big help to me I got I got it set for 130 beats per minute if I'm if I'm inactive like if if what they call resting if if I'm not moving around much and and my beats per minute go past 130 like I said you can set it to what you want but that's what I got to say that it will start buzzing it will give me you know will let me know hey you know you're you haven't moved in 10 minutes but you're still up there like the other day I was I was sneaking out the dream okay and kitchen sink here and and it did get up to like 152 or 160 to one of them to but I know it was over 150 so it's very helpful for me I mean I know when I got to take a rest but when I see numbers like that I will definitely take a rest so that's that's very very helpful to me just for that see I'm going down now it's 113 as my beats per minute but like I said just I keep that in mind that there are and there are some other things this will do that they you know you have to pay for I think for 80 bucks a year you should get a little more I'm not saying give us everything give us more options you know give us something you know what I mean especially because you know a lot of people can't even afford this and then when they can't afford this then they go they find out oh my god now I gotta you know just even use the app you got to pay something you know well we just happen we bought the premium and you know I thought there'd be a lot more for 80 bucks or did I say a month it's a year 80 bucks a year guys not a month a year but still to some people that's a lot of money they go spend you save up their money and buy this and then well I gotta pay for the app and then I only get so much and then they save up and they're like okay I got 80 bucks a year now now I'm gonna get a lot more and there's they're going to be disappointed because I think there needs to be some more stuff given to you for that like my for some reason it's not letting me put my contacts in here like monkey when I get to put her contact in here it's it's saying that it doesn't exist or you know check and make sure you have the right you know and and I know it's hers it's in my phone but I can't get it to go into the app you know you know like if I want to add a friend and it doesn't and this will not give me all of my contacts on here it only give me a few when I hit it it gives me one two myself so it only gives me three plus myself that's all it gives me so I don't understand and it won't let me add like I said it won't let me add monkey I I don't I don't know why but so you know so I'm gonna have to get a hold of the customer service on it because down here you can get help and support you got help articles you got Android app help form contact customer support and then you know which device you have so if I go to contact customer support it gives you this it gives you you know the verse of three which I've got and then I can chat or call so I'm going to have to do something to find out why I'm not even get my badges which you know I think you know that's a great thing to have them badges and trophies it you know some people you know it'll get them out more it'll get more exercise I'm not even supposed to exercise at all but I you know I do enough to where it is exercise I haven't gained any weight in like a year and a half I've been staying around one between 188 and 190 but so I think it gives them more incentive you know look I got a badge I'm gonna go walk somewhere I want to get a trophy now I'm gonna you know but you keep looking at that every day going oh do I have a badge yet no well I should have got a badge let's do you know let's get that figured out I am not logging my steps you know this thing this thing is doing it for me I'm not logging any of that nothing is logged by me which I understand that because some people would just be willy-nilly putting steps down so they can get badges and trophies and look cool because you can share that stuff with other people which I don't know how to do yet because I don't know anyone else's got one but excuse me so I understand that but I'm not logging them this thing's logging for me it is nice looking they have different styles different style bands different colors for the different watches but yeah if you've got the money by all means and you're in your you're kind on offense should I should I buy it or should I buy something else as far as this goes I find it very handy I do I don't know of any other watches like I said that does this kind of stuff so I couldn't compare with other things I can't compare it with other phones you know because I got it on this phone but I can't tell you this one you know like I said I've never even heard of a Fitbit up until just recently just pretty much right before this was sent to me you know I was hearing about these Fitbits and so I didn't think anything of it but now that I've got one I really do enjoy it if you've got the money by all means yes yeah go get you go get you one and just be prepared if you're paying for the premium at premium app you're not going to get as much as you as you think you would and you know that's it's kind of irritating 80 bucks a year so it's like okay it's cheap enough but I still think you should get more for that there is one lower than this it's not as much it's about half that per year but you don't even you hardly get anything like I said so I wish you did have the skin temperature I would like to know my temperature that would be handy especially at this stage in the world that we're at now where that that is kind of important so I can't believe this one came out without it you know at least you could know you know what I mean so anyway guys all in all yes it does I won't give it a four out of five stars because excuse me I think that swallow the bug whoo I think it was a mosquito because I got better few minutes ago so anyway I I just think that that there there's room for improvement on this like I said I'm not an expert on this I have no idea about these things but in my opinion I think that yes there is room for improvement on this and you know take that the heart about your music and you know a lot of people love their music I'm one of them and I want to be able to hear my own stuff I don't want to have to hear what someone else is playing that they think I might like you know because Spotify and Deezer and Pandora really all it is it's kind of like a radio station you know what I mean it's you can look for stuff and things like that but you can search for your songs you want but you know and you can have a playlist but I want to be able to do it from my phone you know my own playlist I don't want to have to pay for music when I've already got music in my phone my favorite songs are in my phone I don't want to have to pay extra in order to be able to use them same songs that I've got on here for free so keep that in mind guys so yeah I will give it a you know a four out of five and a thumbs up there's just room for improvement but for what I'm doing with it it's okay the main thing is my heart rate or my beats per minute that's that's kind of what what I really keep an eye on and I really got to figure out why I'm not getting my badges I mean if they're offering them to me I want them you know I worked hard for me now that's a lot of steps for me I'm not supposed to be taking that many steps to begin with you know I'm not supposed to look like even go out walk for a mile so anyway guys there you go that's if you've got the money yes go ahead and get one but I know most people don't so I'm not you know gonna try to talk to you guys and I'm not getting anything for this you know I mean they gave it to me so I didn't know it was coming I was surprised so I'm not you know they're not paying me to say anything like I said that's why you know I will not I've been asked to do reviews on things but they're like well but you know you got to really try to sell this and I'm like if it's junk I'm not I don't want my my viewers going out spending their harder money on junk this I would say if you've got the money yes go for it buy it just be aware of the little things I mentioned to you you may find some more but you know all in all I'm happy with it yes now if I had to pay for this if I would have went about this now I wouldn't be real happy with with what it comes with on premium I think the premium for 80 bucks a year needs to be you need to get more I mean it's a lot of money you know so anyway guys thanks for watching I really appreciate it she bear the myth man legend I'm gone for now I'll do further updates on longevity you know maybe I'll do another one in a month or a couple months and we'll see you know right now looks good I've used it working on the truck and you know I wear it all the time so I do take it off for a couple hours a day and in that time which they recommend what you should on a watch anyway I would recommend just go ahead and plug it in and by the time you put it back on you're golden alright guys again thanks for watching appreciate it and we'll see you in the next one bye bye guys and take care
