At 9:49, when you mentioned the price, the little activity tracker man went bolting! 😂 Outstanding review. Thanks for taking the time and sharing. Most probably would go for the black, although that blue has a mysterious allure to it...
Pro tip with third party bands (for any smart watch) activity tracker. Get yourself some third party nylon bands, far more comfortable for sleeping in.
Great review, although you didn't mention if it has a luminous dial. I have the original ScanWatch and it only has luminous hands, which I find is a bit vague at 2AM...
I'm the same way as far as charging. They give you sleep tracking, but it has to be charging all night. I switched to Gshock, and then to the Garmin Instinct. Best watch I have owned. I found that I didn't use most of the shit that you would use an Apple Watch or Galaxy Watch.
I use one since a few years. And now the battery lost a lot of capacity. And guess what, it can NOT be replaced! Withings does not even offer a replacement service. This is really annoying, because the watch actually is very good and the battery used to last for four weeks. Now mine is down to one week only.
IT sad, that we cant replace battery, but what can do someone who has "traditional" smartwatch and must charge almost everyday. Week of working is a dream for this devices.
@@amadeusz12386 a hybrid watch should last longer then a week. My Huawei watch gt2 pro is around 3.5 years old and its battery still lasts for around 7 days with almost permanent use and permanent active heart rate monitoring and blood oxygen monitoring.
Awesome review! How has it been for reliability? I've had Withings watches going back to the Activite, but I've heard a few warnings about customer service and reliability since the Nokia takeover. Them switching from a 5 year warranty down to a 2 year warranty worries me too...
Sure! here you go! Brown Leather Strap (20mm): amzn.to/3WDgRuZ Black Rubber Strap (20mm): amzn.to/3SKZVBk Pine/Olive Green Magnetic Sport Band (20mm): amzn.to/3X01m1q Pine/Olive Green Buckle Sport Band (20mm): amzn.to/3M2KalS
I wouldn't worry about that, personally I don't use the subscription as it doesn't offer anything I need and that's not already offered free out of the box
I can confirm it does rotate and align perfectly. Prior to the video I was playing around and rotating it, which is why it wasn't perfectly aligned. Hope that's reassuring! :)

That's funny lol.
Sure thing, glad you found it helpful. The color choice was definitely a tough one for me too cause they all look really good!
@@MedianPulse I went blue. More versatile than green and black is too corporate for my personal taste. I had a blue Horizon (predecessor) too.
@@angusgibbins4954 a photo of the blue would be awesome if you have one, I’m leaning towards the blue
Great review, one of the best for the product!, not many reviews as you stated, but i think you covered it well.
Thank you so much! glad you found it helpful
Great review, thanks so much. I only found out about this watch today.
Nice review! Can the time on the OLED display be changed from 24 hour military format to 12 hour format?
yes of course

Great question, yeah I missed that out. It does have a luminous dial

It's built really well - only had it for a year and still good as new. I wear it everyday too
My Steel HR, ScanWatch 1 and 2 all work no issues if it helps. Bought them all at their respective launches.
Can i have the links for the 3rd party straps?
Sure! here you go!
Brown Leather Strap (20mm): amzn.to/3WDgRuZ
Black Rubber Strap (20mm): amzn.to/3SKZVBk
Pine/Olive Green Magnetic Sport Band (20mm): amzn.to/3X01m1q
Pine/Olive Green Buckle Sport Band (20mm): amzn.to/3M2KalS
I want try to try this out. Would you recommend the nova or SCANWATCH 2?
I personally like the Nova for its design, but if you prefer something more minimalistic (and affordable) the Scanwatch 2 is great!
Ceramic bezel also wow!
Hi! Can I control music from my iPhone using this watch???
I have not owned a smartwatch before so I have no idea 😅
Hey, I don't believe this is possible with the Withings watch
No that’s not a function of any Withings watches.
Will it work with a Chinese rom phone like the oppo find ne fold
@@simongorton3229 it should work, you'll just need to download the Withings app
My HSA covers these, and my employer gives me 1k a year in HSA money. I’ll be buying this watch basically free of charge to me 😅 can’t wait.
I am scared of buying this Watch Because of their subscription. Do you feel like their Withings + is mandatory?
I wouldn't worry about that, personally I don't use the subscription as it doesn't offer anything I need and that's not already offered free out of the box
"It can show notifications" but you didn't give an example, still don't know if it even readable or if it's useless
It's a small screen so the notifs run across, I'd say it's still readable and useful though
Great review.
Is it just me or are the bezels misaligned ?
They are at the time of the video but easily rotateable
adatto per polsi da donna....troppo piccolo di diametro.....
The dial isnt aligned properly... yikes!
The bezel rotates
@@Baba-sz9jb yes but even if it rotates. does it centerizze? i heard of complains
@@bledig I assume it does, but I don't know
I can confirm it does rotate and align perfectly. Prior to the video I was playing around and rotating it, which is why it wasn't perfectly aligned.

Glad to see a review for the Nova... as you say, there aren't many reviews out there. 🙏
