I feel like a lot of people in the comments, it would be nice if Skmei would do versions in metal rather than plastic/resin, that way it would honestly feel less of a knockoff and more of an improvement.
Were it not for the limited Skmei viewing angle, the overall result would be further in favour of the latter. I really enjoy these comparisons, I hope you will do more of them.
They are both nice... Skmei is not a "data bank", but the light and the price are good... the poor visibility is sad... Casio is a "data bank", but to buy you need to rob a bank... hehehe... DB-36 is more accessible. Take the Casio DB-36 module and put it in the Skmei case... ;-) Thanks Gedmis for the comparisson. Casio DB-36 and Casio F-201WA is maybe a great comparisson... think about...
Thanks for that. Unfortunately my suspicion was confirmed, the Skmei doesn't have the databank function, so it's pointless. Might as well get another of their models, there are a lot of choices!
3:39 Skmei's backlight is more elegant and classy. Why Casio can't make such a backlight?. On almost all Casio Watches there's this type of non uniform backlight
EL backlight need additional components (for step up voltage and layer display) conventional led just need one resistor, also led had longer lifespan than EL (like phospor), EL layer tend to decrese viewing angle and/or visibility on some cheap watches (like on some kid watch)
its impossible to find any chinesse watch that has the Telememo function, its so usefull to have some data. The Electroluminiscent panel should be something in the original Casio, is better than a Led in my opinion.
I have no use for the databank function and I’ve been very impressed with my other SKMEI watches so in this case I would save some money and purchase the SKMEI. Great video
I have those 2 watches. I can say that skmei is not a sports watch not a watertight. It is not 100% water resistant. Mine just got broken after 3 months of using. I wear it even if I'm in the shower. After 3 months the led display is broken and moisture comes inside so i discontinue using it. My casio watch from japan is very tough and highly recommended.
I can’t speak for this particular model, as I sold it. But I’ve had several Skmei digital watches for about 7 years, using them for swimming in lakes and the sea with no problems so far-both still work great. This model is 3 ATM, as I recall, so it's not meant for swimming. Of course, Casio watches have better quality and quality control.
@@GedmisLaguna yes...since i can still use it to tell time..will replace once battery died..thanks..love ur videos..i just bought skmei moonswatch..lovely piece
The majority of Skmei models appear to be copies (or so-called homages). They have several mixed-design models that are hard to identify with certainty, resembling designs from other brands or models, or possibly featuring their own unique design. Regardless, considering their price range of 10-15$, these watches are quite good

good point
Wish there were a brand that recreated all of Casio's watches but in full stainless steel

thanks for the reference :)
I'm honestly surprised that Casio hadn't sue SKMEI for blatantly copying their design language.
Skmei is a Chinse manufacturer, nothng can be done here.
Thanks for that. Unfortunately my suspicion was confirmed, the Skmei doesn't have the databank function, so it's pointless. Might as well get another of their models, there are a lot of choices!
Glad I could help
They look good on your hand ,man !!
skmei dominates casio when it comes to lighting.
obviously
Would buy the black skmei version & swap with rubber strap

yes the Skmei backlight is so much better :)

Dobro veče.Imam isti takav Skmei.Da li sat ima opciju da zvono obavesti kad bude pun sat-kad prodje sat vremena da zapišti?
yes, this watch has a hour chime function. it can be set in alarm mode.

i wish they would make a full stainless steel version of this
would be nice

I guess it's more like a nostalgic thing to play with (data bank). Thanks for watching.
Casio have matrix display :) , chines seven segments :(

Привет друг, скажите пожалуйста эти корпусы можно поменять местами ?
the do not fit
I have it too and when you turn the screen even a little bit all the pixels are visible and the text becomes unreadable
some models have better viewing angle some quite poor
@@GedmisLaguna For example, skmei 1335 is much better
Well, in this case, i think the copy version is better :)) You can get 3....
Yes, this Casio isn't the best one ...
Great Video !
Thanks for the visit
Excelente video , saludos desde colombia !!
thanks for watching
the fact that skmei just copied casio.. there is no comparisson.. same as comparing real vs fake
It depends on the point of view. Anyway it's so called grey area.
Casio👍
bought one...now all button malfunction...but cool watch anyway
Skmei? how it could be?
@@GedmisLaguna yes..skmei..not sure how..but now just waiting for the battery to die.hohoho

Kembaran yang beda asal 🤣🤣

Estoa chinos van a dejat de copiar en algún momento?
dont think so

Buy the skmei
skmei gana en iluminacion
not the first time
rather strange Casio model. And the Skmei just copied it
true
yeh, looks ok, but this plastic case is neh
not the best Casio model. the skmei is Ok
yes, the plastic case with the chrome like coating is not serious
Wtf is a Skmei? A knock-off brand?
