An add just came up on Instagram I watched a video of this Carbinox and I thought this was too good to be truth. Since I bought an umigidi smartwatch that I have wore everyday outdoors and is already scratched but functional, I thought to get a rugged smartwatch like this one. Thank you for the info I think I will keep my scratched watch for one more year now.
Glad to see this review. Software is a huge component when considering a smartwatch. Many people get sold on the hardware and realize (after purchase) that they can’t reliably use half of the advertised features. There are a ton of brands popping up with slick marketing, impressive feature list, and great price. Most of them fail to mention anything about the supporting app. This is a huge red flag. After doing some digging, you’ll usually find that the back end is handled by a third party (as you mentioned), third rate app with horrible reviews on the app marketplaces. It’s definitely a case of getting what you pay for. Application development and support is a massive expense, which is why the established brands are much more costly.
Just bought it a week ago.. It's my first smart watch..looks cool .I'm able to see my Facebook messages.i can see the singers and name of songs playing, and even when there's an advertisement. But i hear no sound, only vibrates..
Ordered one last weekend. I don't care about it connecting with the phone as I just wanted another digital watch. I have a pocket watch that is analog I carry but I do miss a wristwatch. Although I have a cellphone I don't always have it with/on me. I'm a medically retired driver since 2018 and when I'm doing things around the house stopping to pull out my phone is not always a good thing. Oh, I quickly found out in 1991 that I couldn't keep a white t-shirt white around a big truck as they were a magnet for fifth wheel grease.😂
I was in spot to pay for this, glad I found this video, I drive truck also and my Samsung watch does great and comfortable but bothers my wrist at times, so this bulky one would definitely hurt my tendinitis saved me 80$ thanks
Kospet is the parent company for this watch. I have the Kospet Tank aka Carbinox Titan. I have had zero issues. I have had direct impacts to the screen, salt water, pool water, deer guts still works. No connection issues with any notifications. And yes it is your fault for the messages. You have to use the last option of other app notifications.
I've broke a few smart watches already. I just got this because of the durability. For the price, hopefully it last a few years. I do a lot of outdoor activities and I work on commercial equipment.
It definitely seems durable. I'm curious, did you manage to get it to sync to your text messages and phone calls? I tried multiple things and couldn't get it to work.
@@FitsandFun I had to go into my app permissions ans give the 3rd party app permissions to access my messages and phone. After that I got it to work. I also had to link a Google fitness account just to keep track of my steps. For what it is, its a decent starter watch. I wish it was easier to link and they had their own software like you mentioned
Thanks for the review. I just saw an ad for their Spacecrafter model and looked up reviews of Carbinox themselves. Apparantly they are part of Luminox, which is a good watch company, but I didn't know anything about them before searching. One thing I was surprised about was that you stated you wore the watch for about two weeks, but you don't know how long the charge lasts? Did you get that information afterwards and just not mention it?
I couldn't wear it to bed, it was too big and uncomfortable for me to get used to. So I hooked it to the charger when I went to bed. I don't think they actually make this model anymore. It's been taken off their website. I haven't tried any of their new watches.
So Aaron which smart watch would you recommend for truckers that are constantly coupling, uncoupling, basically slamming their watch accidently but constantly? 🤠
This watch is clearly durable....but if anyone had made it known that it's basically for people 40 and over....I wouldn't have bought it. Why do I say this? Cause it doesn't work with any other apps. Only with texts (that you can't reply to on the watch) and calls. Hella disappointing that I wasted my money. 😠
Absolutely the worst customer service on the planet!!! Bought a watch from them and screen protectors. Screen protectors did not fit properly and both were not fitting. Tried contacting customer support and got in touch with Dannie. She is non responsive to sending out 2 more replacements. Terrible customer service skills and after 5 attempts to reach anyone, they do not respond whatsoever!!! If you want a watch like this stay away from them!!!
I purchased this watch. It does NOT give accurate blood pressure. It also switches on its own from regular time to military time on its own. I returned the first watch for a replacement. Well, either these watches are all gimped or they sent the original watch back to me. DO NOT PURCHASE!!!
I think it's dumb to have a wifi radiation cancer emitting device so close to your body while letting big brother spi on shit like health stats and your location
Interesting take, with that said I have to ask, why in the world are you watching and commenting on a smart watch video if you are so against them to begin with?
I bought two Carbinox Titan-Pro watches - one for my boyfriend, and one for his Son for Christmas 2022. Less than one month 1/11/23 and my boyfriend who is a truck driver has already cracked the screen. He's not sure how it happened but it was during his workday without any major impact. His phone also wouldn't connect to his messages. BP monitor was not accurate. The second watch (his Son's watch) gave him a terrible rash where the screen touches the skin and the band its self also gave him a rash. NOT AS ADVERTIZED. DO NOT BUY THIS WATCH.
As far as rashes it is probably trapped sweat. I usually get that with most watches with a metal bezel back....just metal and sweat...not good for me. Good to know that the screen cracked quickly
Great video, clear and concise. I've had BOTH the TITAN and SPACECRAFT and I completely agree with you! The BIGGEST issue I had was the COMFORT and it "burned" when I got sweaty! I TRIED to contact Carbinox but NEVER heard back from them. I think if they offered interchangeable bands "not rubber" that it would be a better product. I think they need to FOCUS on REAL customers reviews rather than cheesy actors!!!
Just saw the watch thru an internet add i immediately wanted a review and here u were. Thank you for doing this video. As an impulse buyer u saved me 100 bucks my man thank u
These watches are trash sold by a company that has no cust service, no phone #… Save your money! The app for the watch is awful and does nothing more than provide generic averages! 100% Trash!! Oh yes, they sell ur email address as well, you will get plenty of use with your spam folders.. Casio, Im coming back! I love my ‘Dumb’ watch.. Blessings
I want to give a big thank you for this video. This is probably the first time I have seen someone give a review where they are honest and to the point, with practical reasoning. Great and helpful video.
Thanks bro. The things that bother you concerning this watch would definitely irritate me so I'm not going to purchase it now. I appreciate your review
Glad I watched your review. The text sync is what I really really need and I was on the verge of buying this watch. I’m an auto shop foreman and have a lot of work-related phone traffic amongst having to repair vehicles myself. Not an accessory guy but it would be nice not to worry with the phone in my pocket all the time.
Just got their ranger-x. Not horrible but for sure not the best one available. FF/emt. Haven’t had it long. HR monitor and other vitals tracking is probably one of the worst avail on the market. Going to return it get my money back. I’d agree. Not horrible but not great.
Go to their website and look at reviews, then pictures from customers. On Carbinox's own website you'll see that customers uploaded pictures of this exact watch. They recently took it off their watches that they sell. It was on their page, but sold out. Now they don't even sell it. But you'll see tons of photos by customers on the Carbinox website. In the reviews section.
Ok, well I see it. In the reviews this watch is uploaded in verified customer reviews. But at this point I don't care. Believe what you want. I gain nothing from arguing about it, and I'm obviously not selling it.
You said uncomfortable and I lost interest. I’m really not much of a watch person to begin with let alone it being uncomfy. Thank you for your review good sir!
I just bought the lux black and I've used it a lot for the first few days that I've had it. Once you get everything set up in the app, the watch runs great. I took it off and slammed it face down on my desk just joking around and there is not a scratch on it. I hit it pretty hard. I'm going to give this one to my girlfriend and get the Titan Pro for myself since it can send and answer calls. I was a skeptic at first since it is a pretty new company but I love it so far. Is a little bulky but I'm a big guy so it doesn't bother me.
Thank you for this review. I'm searching and searching if it's possible to leave the phone at home and listen to my music on it through my Bluetooth. If anyone knows please let me know. I was able to with iPhone and watch. I just went back to android because I want to see the craters on the moon in my pictures and iPhone cameras suck.
I have the X-Ranger and the APP drains my phone battery. They switched to a new app provider for this watch and another new watch being released. I'm charging my phone twice daily. I bought it because it was cheaper than a Samsung. Big Mistake!! Most of the health functions only work when the app is linked to the watch. I would not recommend.
They offer NO RETURNS or Exchanges for defective items which is a laughable policy for a product that's marketed as durable. owned one of these that lasted less than a month of medium duty use (truck driving/moving heavy stuff etc.). The wristband buckle came apart. It has an aesthetic ruggedness but the parts that keep the watch together are cheap and flimsy. This company is about 2 years old, total money grab. Don't waste your money, for $100+ they're asking you can get a real watch from a real company.
If I could give 0 stars I absolutely would. Products are cheap, the owner is a joke (Jose) and he runs this business out of an apartment in Miami. The return process is ridiculous -- he demands a picture of the undamaged item and refuses to respond. I sent the items back ***IN MAY*** -- everything in its original packaging (3 of the items I didn't even open) and have yet to receive any refund. This is unethical and proves he is extremely shady and should be shut down.
I regretfully bought this watch and I may possibly not be able to get a refund on this low quality watch. I definitely don’t recommend it. After watching your video i just remembered that the software is made by a company in china. There is no phone number for customer service on the website. They only provide an email address for returns. This is a bogus product. The screen resolution looks cheap like one of those knockoff smart watches you might see at walmart in the jewelry section thats not in the glass case.
I want to give a big thank you for this video. This is probably the first time I have seen someone give a review where they are honest and to the point, with practical reasoning. Great and helpful video.
A friend of mine got it for there family member, he wore it in an office for a few weeks then it started glitching. They sent it back and they said it came back damaged and refuses to refund their money even though it was not damaged. Don't buy this watch.
It seemed pretty accurate compared to my store bought, upper arm wrap, blood pressure monitor. But I didn't do back to back checks to compare. It registered mine around what it always is, and my wifes as really high, which hers always is. So that's all I can base it on.
@@FitsandFun I have read many good and bad reviews about this. It makes me think that unfortunately, you got one of those that needed a little more attention. Its like a drone that you buy for 1200 dollars and when you receive it, it is not functioning right. It doesn't mean that the brand is bad, but all you have to do is to get it replaced with a good one. Now I dont know how Carbinox's policy as far as replacement.
It could be uncomfortable because you usually don't wear watches for long time. I'm sure it has many more features. Also your watch needs to have Bluetooth on along with phone Bluetooth on in order to get your messages. Also if it's simple then that's good you don't want complexity in installation in any watch. Did you read the instructions? Any way thanks for sharing.
I had my Bluetooth on and connected, I read the instructions. It is a very basic system. There isn't much to it. Same operating system that many other brands use. It's not a bad watch, it's just not for me.
I work at my family’s salvage yard. I’ve always wanted a smartwatch. Was looking at an Apple Watch, but then seem so flimsy. Wish that Apple would make a rigid version similar to this watch.
All I want is the time and a hit and liquid proof I don't care about text message etc. maybe you should get a lady's watch, because that's a man's watch a strong though male alpha sob and that is what I have.
I recently bought a smart watch, not a Cabonox and the screenshots on your video were identical to what is on my watch. Sounds like Cabonox maybe the same guts in a different case. Thanks for your video. Safe travels.
Agree, I had a cheap Chinese smartwatch and this uses the same app and UI. Highly disappointed I bought this. Great marketing but this need to last more than 1 month in the foundry I work in.
Perhaps you can help me. My son works in a shop so needs a watch that is "tough". He wants a smart watch and found the Ranger X. So many of these watches are the same but I have found you have to watch closely as some do not allow for call/answer but only notification. I am completely lost and confused. The Garmin Instinct (not the Instinct 2 which is above my price range) looks good but it looks like it is just notifications. The price on it now is only about $50 more than the Ranger X which I am certain is another of the made in China brands with a rebranded face... Can you offer a suggestion?
Most of these watches are fairly basic and very similar. One that I like because I can answer calls and talk directly through the watch is the Luxium Crusader. It's still similar to all these inexpensive smart watches, but being able to talk directly through the watch is nice. Still, it's the same generic operating system.
Imagine I was beating it with a rubber mallet and dropping it off the roof. It's about the same durability as all the other watches almost exactly like it.
I've been using the Amazfit T-Rex for the last 2 years. Battery last for 10-14 days. I've tried the Google watch, Samsung with Tizen (Samsung has since ditched Tizen for Google) and few of the other Chinese offerings. This does the best job of balancing battery life and functionality IMO. I question its steps counting as I have worn a Ticwatch with Google and the T-Rex at the same time and the steps on the Ticwatch was about 3K more than the T-Rex.
Just saved me some money, I wanted it for tracking BP, and showing text / calls. I drive tow truck and never hear my phone over the sounds of my freightshaker
Noooo!!!! I found your video 2 days to late. I bought it. And i actually love the look. But again i cant get it to do what we all want in a smart watch which is to see calls and messages. Ive reach out to corbonox about that situation. Ill give an update.
If you have an android phone you have to go to the Da Fit app settings and give it permission to see calls and texts. I don't have this particular watch but the watch i have uses the same 3rd party app.

I'm big on the text thing too, that's why I just use Samsung smartwatches. Great review

I believe it to be a Chinese watch resold at a higher price, you can find a watch like this Cheeper and have same features.
Kospet is the parent company for this watch. I have the Kospet Tank aka Carbinox Titan. I have had zero issues. I have had direct impacts to the screen, salt water, pool water, deer guts still works. No connection issues with any notifications.
And yes it is your fault for the messages. You have to use the last option of other app notifications.
I gave it to my 15 year old nephew, he loves it. I decided smart watches weren't necessary for me.

Hows it holding up
Did you check if the blood pressure is accurate? The ones that give accurate readings all have been certified.
Does it have always on display?
Does the watch show the whole text message when you receive a message or only a portion of the message?

Don't the get feedback from real people b4 the go into production? I was concern about bulkiness, thank for the fyi.
Thanks for this review, considered this watch but now I might look elsewhere
I run flatbed and have destroyed a couple of smart watches. Thinking of trying this one.
Get the Carbonox XRanger I Luv mine works Great
I got mine to sync easy with messages but you can't read it it's so small
So Aaron which smart watch would you recommend for truckers that are constantly coupling, uncoupling, basically slamming their watch accidently but constantly? 🤠
I don't wear one. So no watch. I tried it out and realized that it was basically pointless for me personally.
Can you do a review of the Kospet M1 Tank Pro??
What stops this companies from selling your health information?
Nothing.
Thanks for the review not buying it
CAN YOU PLEASE REVIEW.

Is it “Made in China watch, anybody knows?
Didn’t even use it for at a minimum 7.
It’s not supposed to be “high end” it’s supposed to be rugged and easy to use…
There box literally says high end on it. That's why I say that.

This is not a true Carbinox! This a FAKE.
You can't buy CARBINOX ON AMAZON they are littered with fakes.
Change your headline!!!
This was from Carbinox directly. For an ad shoot that had nothing to do with my channel. So it's definitely not a fake ordered on Amazon.
Go to their website. This is on their website. Plain as day. And again, they sent this to me.

My main thing is waterproof and a tough screen. I am an avid outdoors person. My others have taken a beating and screen messed up and not waterproof

It's also the same software used in the Njord watches, which also SUCK!
Thanks for being honest, excellent review 👌
I'm having trouble pairing it. Using glory fit app to pair it. Then all of contacts aren't on it
Wasn't planning on buying this watch at all, I just wanted someone to hit the watch like a real man instead of the way they hit it in the Ads
Great review thanks.

Awesome simple to the point
can I have my GPS map or Google Maps on its tiny screen and follow its tracking?

I'm glad I found this. I also drive truck. Had a cheaper watch and I cracked the screen the first day at work so that really helped
Anything to put your medical up as data, this doesn't seem identity friendly.
Where do you get apps to put on the watch??? Sounds like it only lasts a day on a charge...
Does the blood pressure give an accurate reading? Thanks good review
It seemed pretty accurate compared to my store bought, upper arm wrap, blood pressure monitor. But I didn't do back to back checks to compare. It registered mine around what it always is, and my wifes as really high, which hers always is. So that's all I can base it on.
I don't think it's reading blood pressure. Maybe it's reading your heart rate.
@@robertroop9384 it does Both'
My question too. Thanks!
Watchband size?
Adjustable.
Does anyone know if these are ecg compatible
It looks like it has delay on getting it to do stuff
Soooo sluggish this is 100% a boomer watch
Im getting two days battery life any ideas ?
NO CARBINOX ON THE VIDEO. YOU GOT A DIFFERENT ONE.
No I didn't. This came from Carbinox. It was their original watch, they didn't have their name on the original.
@@FitsandFun I have read many good and bad reviews about this. It makes me think that unfortunately, you got one of those that needed a little more attention. Its like a drone that you buy for 1200 dollars and when you receive it, it is not functioning right. It doesn't mean that the brand is bad, but all you have to do is to get it replaced with a good one. Now I dont know how Carbinox's policy as far as replacement.
It could be uncomfortable because you usually don't wear watches for long time. I'm sure it has many more features. Also your watch needs to have Bluetooth on along with phone Bluetooth on in order to get your messages. Also if it's simple then that's good you don't want complexity in installation in any watch. Did you read the instructions? Any way thanks for sharing.
I had my Bluetooth on and connected, I read the instructions. It is a very basic system. There isn't much to it. Same operating system that many other brands use. It's not a bad watch, it's just not for me.
I work at my family’s salvage yard. I’ve always wanted a smartwatch. Was looking at an Apple Watch, but then seem so flimsy. Wish that Apple would make a rigid version similar to this watch.
I've seen hundreds of amart watches out there similar to this one. They all seem to use the same operating system with tiny tweaks.
Love my Carbonox xRanger
All I want is the time and a hit and liquid proof I don't care about text message etc. maybe you should get a lady's watch, because that's a man's watch a strong though male alpha sob and that is what I have.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I recently bought a smart watch, not a Cabonox and the screenshots on your video were identical to what is on my watch. Sounds like Cabonox maybe the same guts in a different case. Thanks for your video. Safe travels.
Agree, I had a cheap Chinese smartwatch and this uses the same app and UI. Highly disappointed I bought this. Great marketing but this need to last more than 1 month in the foundry I work in.
Can the screen display be left on
What about delivery drivers? I use my phone for music changing and a bunch tons of calls
And bitch tons of pictures
Thanks
How can I receive test messages. Messages is enable on the app and I still can receive it
I couldn't get it to work. Someone said you have to enable 3rd party apps in the settings for the apps. But it never worked for me.
Perhaps you can help me. My son works in a shop so needs a watch that is "tough". He wants a smart watch and found the Ranger X. So many of these watches are the same but I have found you have to watch closely as some do not allow for call/answer but only notification. I am completely lost and confused. The Garmin Instinct (not the Instinct 2 which is above my price range) looks good but it looks like it is just notifications. The price on it now is only about $50 more than the Ranger X which I am certain is another of the made in China brands with a rebranded face... Can you offer a suggestion?
Most of these watches are fairly basic and very similar. One that I like because I can answer calls and talk directly through the watch is the Luxium Crusader. It's still similar to all these inexpensive smart watches, but being able to talk directly through the watch is nice. Still, it's the same generic operating system.
Thank you. I'm really just lost in all of this and thanks for the quick response.@@FitsandFun
Where is the video of the durabilities?
Imagine I was beating it with a rubber mallet and dropping it off the roof. It's about the same durability as all the other watches almost exactly like it.
Does it light up when you raise your wrist to check the time?
Yes
Can you get the spotify app on it?
No
Does it have a calculator on the watch?
Yes. I believe so. I gave it to a relative so I can't double check.
@@FitsandFun thank you.
What app does it use?
Da Fit.
Da fit app
I just got the Carbinox Titan PRO EVERYTHING WORKKS PERFECTLY. IT WAS EASY TO PAIR WITH PHONE. I TALK ON IT AN ALL THE FEATURES WORK 👍 GOOD
I've been using the Amazfit T-Rex for the last 2 years. Battery last for 10-14 days. I've tried the Google watch, Samsung with Tizen (Samsung has since ditched Tizen for Google) and few of the other Chinese offerings. This does the best job of balancing battery life and functionality IMO. I question its steps counting as I have worn a Ticwatch with Google and the T-Rex at the same time and the steps on the Ticwatch was about 3K more than the T-Rex.
had one, face fell off, loved the watch though.
@@jacksharmonoquinn572 Weird! I've banged mine up enough most rugged watches would have failed. I guess with all things YMMV.
What Google watch have you tried? Google just came out with their 1st watch this year like a could of weeks ago.
Thanks for the info, helpful
Just saved me some money, I wanted it for tracking BP, and showing text / calls. I drive tow truck and never hear my phone over the sounds of my freightshaker
Noooo!!!! I found your video 2 days to late. I bought it. And i actually love the look. But again i cant get it to do what we all want in a smart watch which is to see calls and messages. Ive reach out to corbonox about that situation. Ill give an update.
Someone said they got it working by allowing 3rd party apps or something. I gave the watch to a family member so I couldn't try it.
If you have an android phone you have to go to the Da Fit app settings and give it permission to see calls and texts. I don't have this particular watch but the watch i have uses the same 3rd party app.
