I love this watch because it's easy to check the time during a meeting (under the table, of course) without anyone noticing.
I do love a nice watch. Great to see somebody making quality watches for the blind and vision impaired. Cheers!
Great video with explanation about the watch and how to tell time on it because the advertisement was confusing. Thank you.
Thank you for this valuable information!
Great story along with a cool looking watch. Thanks
I bought one about two years ago. I love that I can check time without having a cheap recording Blair it out to the entire room. It looks great! The only things I don’t like are that it’s on the thicker side, and it’s also kind of a pain to adjust the time. Still a great watch though.
Thank you
Awesome a fashionable accessible watch to toes up
Oh nice. As much as I like the smart watch, it’s nice to know that there’s more choices. I had no clue about this watch though, so thanks for bringing it to my attention.
I was a kick starter backer for this watch Wayback in the day. It is very nice, we totally get another one if it wasn’t so expensive. I have since switched to an Apple Watch, so don’t get any use out of it anymore. But the tactile time telling was really nice and I also found the shiny balls easy to see.
glad I came across this, I have been thinking a while about watches, and I before loosing sight, I was an avid watch collector. whilst I like the sound of this, 1, I think it may be too chunky for me, and 2, I think I would get so much more out of an Apple Watch - but, was nice to hear about it
I love it! Love the look of it! A little pricey for my budget though 🤷🏻♂️
As a blind person, I can’t help but think some of you guys are missing the forest for the trees. I remember going through school, and using the old cheap looking, ignorant sounding talking watches with the crowing alarm. don’t you remember, certain ones that had the problem of when the battery was dying, suddenly it would start crowing for no apparent reason? Aw yes, then there was the braille watch; over bulky, not stylish, that old man stretch band, that would pull all of the hair out of your arm. I remember how the top always ended up falling off and getting loose on the three that I owned, that I had paid plenty of money to try to get a more presentable watchband for, and now reside in the back of some forgotten drawer. At last, long live the Apple Watch, I got in on that as soon as they came out. I have nothing bad to say about them, however, many of you point out the price of the Bradley, while talking like the Apple Watch is cheap! Return to Reality, where the Bradley is still cheaper than the Apple Watch. But the Apple Watch is a smart watch, you’ll say, and this thing is just some kind of plain old watch! well, there is the factor of style to consider; don’t get me wrong, blue jeans and T-shirts are an every day driver for me, but I work in situations that require a higher form of dress, and my Apple sport watch, does not look normal with a suit, or even business casual clothing. of course, it is acceptable to most everyone, because it is an Apple Watch, however, that doesn’t mean that it looks the part, if you are talking about more formal dress. I learned of the Bradley, because though I love them, taptic Time has turned into a disaster on the Apple Watch, and I am often in situations where I need to check the time without making a big old scene of it, and the watch just start talking and blubbering. there are times when I feel like I have a $400 version of the old talking crowing watch. so, look at the big picture, is all I am saying. Also, keep in mind, this is a designer type accessory, not something that talks and crows, has that really sporty black nylon band, and was made in China. That’s all I’m saying, consider the big picture, and applaud a company who is willing to make an accessory that is fashionable, and works for us without modification or extra expense. Congratulate them. I plan on buying one of these myself, as I stumbled across it, wondering if the world of braille watches had ever improved.
Hey Sam! Nice shirt! 😮😊 Nice watch, but I'm happy with my smartwatch, but it looks really nice!
LOL, thanks!
Its been a long time and watching your vlog a lot. Wondering if these gadget like you have is available outside specially here in Philippins.
What about keeping dirt away from the groove? I'm guessing it would be difficult to clean and maintain.
Hey Sam.
I think if I remember correctly Matt from blind to billionaire has that watch.
Now for me I don’t usually care if it looks good or if it’s stylish or anything like that. When I look for a watch, I will look for something that’s going to be practical in my every day life. So after watching your SUNU BAND Video several times and researching about it I realized that this is the watch for me. As of right now I am a beta tester for the Sunu Band.
Thanks again for another awesome video Sam. But I will agree with you that it would be nice if more watch companies would consider making watches for the visually impaired. See you in the next one buddy!
That’s great to hear!
I really like my talking watch the only downside to it is it sometimes seems so loud! I’ll keep this in mind if I ever need a new one
Very nice design, kind of pricey for a watch, I believe if you were not visually impaired you can spend money and other type of watches, but for now I believe the Apple Watch works great, thank you for the information as always
That is so cool! If I loose anymore sight I'll have to keep it in mind, right now my apple watch 4 is working great
Did you no the apple watch works for the totally blind. I have no vision at all and use mine fine. You can just look up how it works. It talks, and you navigate the screen with different touch commands. It can even vibrate out the time, and if you really want, you can connect it to a braille display. This is all called voice over. I just wanted to tell you so you do not think you have to give up your apple watch.
Thank you!!! That defintly helps a ton!
@@gracedabbieri6608 thanks for that extra information. My next question was going to be how well does the Apple Watch work for the visually impaired and you pretty much answered the question. I think that if I’m going to spend almost $300 on a watch it might as well be hey smart watch.
@@rhin2113 You can get the apple watch for less then that. It depends on the moddle though. All work AWESOME for the blind and have the same features in turms of accessibility.
@@gracedabbieri6608 I truly appreciate you for sharing that information.
Believe it or not many of us don’t know a lot about this type of technology so thank you.💙
Jeez Sam no giveaways on the watch? I was feeling lucky.. Bummer. Lol.
Another great video, thanks.
LOL, I know, maybe next time!
How can I buy this watch or an other watch
Nice product and a great review. Could you do a video about smart watches that are accessible to the blind users?
I’ve done a video about android smart watches and accessibility, it was linked in this video in fact. My friend Derek Daniel did a video about the Apple Watch accessibility.
It’s a really cool watch but I don’t believe it needs to be that expensive at all. It’s a shame so many accessible products aren’t affordable.
Bruh.... 360 dollars is a cheap ass watch.
Is lt cheap
Have you done a review about a smarwatch?if so, What is your favorite one?
Yes, I own the Samsung galaxy watch and I am very happy with it. It has great accessibility.
Well I am happy to say that if you search up Braille Superstore they have some amazing talking watches
Hello, off topic but do u know the best way to do video call between apple phone and android? my sister who is 100% blind has apple phone with voice commands and she can facetime with other apple phone users but I have a samgung note8, is there something I could download that would make us compatible? thank you for all your videos.
You can use messenger or WhatsApp
@@pedrodomingocantantecatoli2550 Thank you for the reply for this question. I'm familiar with messenger and have it on my phone . I'll see if a family member can download it for her so we can try it out. Her and I are in different states.
I guess she is using voice over on her phone, I also use voiceover. With Messenger it works pretty good
@@pedrodomingocantantecatoli2550 yes she uses voiceover. We were looking for a way for her to be able to video call android phones with her iphone without eating up data. I think messenger would use data if she is not connected to internet / wifi. I'm not ready to get iphone just yet.ha
Sorry I’m a little late to this conversation! You could also try Google duo. It’s available for android and iOS and is basically Google‘s version of FaceTime.
Idk why the minute ball is inside, and the hour ball on outside, can only hope that helps blind people more, but it doesn't seem intuitive otherwise
I got a Fitbit for my birthday and I'm sad to report that it's not an accessible smartwatch. You can get a large print watch face but there are no talking features and you need help from a sighted person to set it up as it has no Accessibility settings, what a bummer!
It's really nice but I think that they have priced themselves out of the market. When you compare it to a smart watch which is around the same price range it's too expensive. At one stage I really wanted one because it would mean that I would be able to tell the time without having some chirpy thing ring out in a quiet meeting when I wanted to know the time because I had other appointments. tried a braille watch and I found that it wasn't right for me. I showed a loved one the watch they too said that it cost too much for what it does.
I am a huge watch nerd, but sadly over half of my watches i never wear because I can not tell what time it is.. The price is great, for a one off, no one else will have one like it. I garuntee you that a guy wearing a $20k Rolex would ask you what watch you are wearing. It is on my list..
It sounds like you get it. That’s exactly what I was trying to explain in the video. A lot of people think it’s too expensive but in the unique watch world, it really isn’t.
@@theblindlife yep, this took a lot of engineering and this is not an off the shelf movement that they slap a case on. My guess is that they barely make money on these
I guess it's good for people who want to know the time, but don't want people to see them constantly looking at their watch.
Strange you can move the balls when this is for someone blind, why confuse them ??
Stylish yes. But not an intuitive design. The inner ring should have been for the hour and the outer ring for the minute, not the other way around. I never got used to it and gave it away.
This model looks like a cobalt version, so not titanium. Bug!
Prices are ridiculous for a watch with one you can't tell the exact time that's the watch function right? Better use a smartphone or real accesible smartwatch like dirt cheap right now Fossil Sport it has speaker and screenreader, magnufuer in my country those are only 79€ much cheaper than this one and tells time exactly!
The band is just too small! I have a chunky wrist and none of these watch makers cater for my wrist. My wrist is larger than Mike Tyson’s…
BEWARE, their customer service is non-existent. I am also hearing their quality has plummeted.
Why it does not talk. Blah
It’s not a smart watch, and doesn’t have any talking features.
This watch seems useless. You don’t even explain how to set or read the time on the watch. If you can easily move the bearing what good is this? 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
