I have several premium G-shocks, but I only wear GBD-200 every day. It is light and has a large display with good visibility.
Yup. Totally worth it. Thanks for watching 😎
The MIP display is simply fantastic ! One won't go wrong to buy this watch just for that brilliant display.
Yup. Totally agreed. Thanks for watching 😎
Sucks that it does not have a countdown timer, Casio goofed up with this omission. The GBX does have that feature, but the GBD doesn't
After the MWC's in depth review I realised that the new smart square is actually too smart for my daily needs and too thick because of the heart monitor ♥ So I think this one currently is a better option. I'm sure some day we'll see the regular square with this MIP display with a few extras like solar power & bluetooth. But for now I'd choose this DWH5600.
I want the gbd200 with solar
@@jiv32 Yup, that's the main reason why I don't have one. Apparently they will continue to improve the MIP line, it seems like people like this display, it definitely is much better than the classic negative one. So eventually we'll get what we want, until then I'm fine with my few current Gs.
Yup. Me too. Hoping for a square G with MIP display + solar + Bluetooth. Thanks for watching 😎
I chatted briefly with Russell the other day. We both own the GBD 200 and he agreed the design is much better than the H5600. The buttons are much easier to access when you're using the menu system as well. They are larger and there's the center button also.
@@zibel5007 Trouble with MIPs is they require a lot more juice to run than the LCDs. If you look at the G Shock Move line, all of the large models with round cases have Tough Solar but none of the smaller models do, even though they are newer. There's no room for the solar panels required. Same reason the DWH5600 needed external charging.
You made the right decision. I got the DW-H5600 and I think this one is better.
Why? Is it uncomfortable to wear the H5600?
@@gergogonczi3741 Yes, to me it is uncomfortable. Not terribly, but there are other G-Shocks that fit better.
Well, I've tried it on, but the thickness and the weird sensors just didn't sit right on my wrist. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
@@NMwatch the sensors once i pull it off is imprinted into my skin LOL
You can adjust the time on this watch without using BT, just press and hold the upper left button and you go to the another dispay and there you find time adjust and there you can adjust your time and date the only thing you can not set is the seconds
Ah good to know that. I'll give it a try. Thanks for watching 😎
100% agree with you! This is my next purchase 😊
Well, enjoy the hunt and thanks for watching 😎
This is a improved version of the 5600. I hope they released it with Tough Solar.
Yup. Totally agreed with you on that. Thanks for watching 😎
Improved version, except it was released BEFORE the DW-H5600 😂
@@castleclubclipz , I mean the regular 5600. But I think even the structure is better than the DW-H5600: way better buttons and a larger screen for more space to the Tough Solar on the GBD-200.
@@aluisiofsjr Agreed, I got the GBD200, it’s a great watch.
I do hope they release an H5600 with Tough Solar, though.
I really like the GBD 200. I got the purple 😁I've had mine for several months and have no need for the DWH5600. I don't think Casio is likely to release an MIP square with Tough Solar. The module requires a specific ratio of surface area to power output. The case of the square and GBD 200 doesn't provide enough space for the solar panels because the module is so big. I assume that's why the larger G Shock Move models have Tough Solar like the GBDH2000 but none of the small ones do. The same reason the H5600 needs external charging.
Wow. Nice observation there mate. Let's just hope that Casio will find a way to put the solar panel on the dial soon. Otherwise, I might have to get this one too😅. Thanks for watching 😎
Don’t you have issues with the menu being a bit slow? It ways “please wait” a lot
They're solar but I don't think it's solar "enough" to actually keep the watch charged all the time. You have to charge it manually kind of like the solar versions of the Garmin smart watches.
I love the legibility of the MIP but I'm not too crazy about the bigger size over the 5600. Thumbs up for the review!
Hello there. Well, the size is really not that bad. For me at least. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
Try wearing a Mudmaster GWG 1000 for a while. This new square will feel like a ribbon!
i too have gbd-200 such a nice watch. if they make a variant with solar and in metal, I would buy all the colors of them.
Yup. Hopefully we'll get those soon. Thanks for watching 😎
HI, I AM Planning for purchase, Please say how is the notification feature? means mobile notifications like msgs missed call ETC.
@@GD-hm6lm I have the GBD 200 and have been using it for almost a year.
Simply put, it's the best Casio watch I've owned and daily drive. The MIP display is just perfect, the vibration motor is very good and it covers the basic fitness tracking needs (tho I still want the DWH5600 because of the heart and oxygen sensors).
The calls feature is good, but the farther you are from your phone, the slower the notification. Since everything is Bluetooth connected, it all depends on how strong the connection is. Since I have my phone close to me for a good portion of the day, it helps me alot when I am working and I leave my phone in my room. Any calls I get, I get a near-instant watch notification/vibration.
Notifications, though... They're pretty useless imo. To reach them is a chore and you cannot filter out many unwanted/annoying notifications. I didn't buy it for notifications, though. but if you want a watch that sends legible and readable notifications, this aint it.
Still, I always recommend the GBD200. It's a beautiful and functional phone.
Going on Day Seven wearing the G-Shock DW-H5600-2, the blue one, and it is better than I expected. The MIP display is amazing indoors and outside. Battery life is down to 50% after one week. Thanks for the review. Your intro was a tad too long, I guess you're simply trying to create the mystery...
Great for you. Do you have any sensor marks on your wrist after wearing it? Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
I got the sensor marks but no biggie ist not like im a little BITTY
@@NMwatch
Had this before. Sold it just because of the lacking hourly chime. I know it’s petty but it felt boring without it. It felt like I didn’t have a digital casio on my wrist 😅
Since you mentioned about the hourly chime, I searched for any method to turn the sound on, but can't find any. Not missing it that much, but I think Casio should've kept that function. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
@@NMwatch i think it's a missed opportunity. Why would they take away something they've always had is beyond me haha. Great video anyway 👍
I prefer my Casio AE 1200 in stainless steel on a leather band.
My phone already has enough distractions.
Been wearing gw9400 range man for 7 years now solar powered no battery change no issues what so ever. I wanna get one n have been seeing this particular gshock u reviewing is having good reviews. Any other suggestions. I want a square gshock
Well, normally any DW5600 Square G-Shock is a good beater. But if you want solar; the G5600 is the way to go. As for the watch I reviewed here, the major USP is the MIP display. They look fantastic. It's just a shame they have yet to do a solar version of these. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
Just ordered.. then i saw some comments here said that no lacking hourly chime. I love everytime hours beep.. hope it doesn't bother me..
Well, you'll not miss the function. Because if you have the notifications turned ON, it will definitely give you lots of unwanted beeps 😅. Thanks for watching 😎
Casio watches look so ugly with aftermarket straps and body mods... They are just perfect the way they come in the box.
Well, each to his own brother. Thanks for watching 😎
If only Casio would add this display to standard watches
Well, they might take a while to do that, but I'm pretty sure that it will happen soon enough. Thanks for watching 😎
hell no my DWH5600 still rips through this I got sleep tracking, training with heart rate, solar , notification, blood oxygen, + all that stacked on top with GBD.
Well, each to his own brother. I'll get one soon enough. Thanks for watching 😎
Dw h 5600 will be my next no need reopen back replace batteries
Well, they cost more. But hey, enjoy your watches and thanks for watching 😎
Thanks for cool review. Just like you I am looking for same watch with Solar. Can you guide me if there is any model with dual time/day/date display function pleasde?
Hey there. I haven't reviewed too many G-Shocks yet. I'll let you know when I found one. Thanks for watching 😎
Please, what kind of notification is when someone call you, is watch vibrating on your wrist? And, is show caller name or just number? Sorry for my bad english, i hope you understand what i mean.
The watch will beep and vibrate if you want it to. And the name of the person will appear. Anyways, I'll give a full tutorial during the full review soon. Thanks for the question and thanks for watching 😎
At least get to know the watch before uploading a video. You‘re constantly saying „I don‘t know“, but I as a viewer don‘t know either, that‘s why I‘m watching a video to get this knowledge. This is a complete waste of time.
Hey man. I think I've mentioned in the beginning of the video that this is my 1st look at the watch. But I'll take note and talk a bit more about the functionality in my full review. Thanks for watching 😎
I have a watch so I'm not dependent on my phone. They don't no how many times I check the time. It's all I have left.
Well, enjoy your watches bro and thanks for watching 😎
Hi man!
Is light uniform or one of the sides looks a little bit brithter?
I've seen many videos where the light in the left side looks a little bit brighter.
That happens with mine. :S
The LED shines brighter at the bottom side on mine. Most probably because there's the LED. Thanks for watching 😎
Keep on the good job
Thanks for the support and thanks for watching 😎
Horrible menus, they must update the firmware to have 1-2 button presses to check notifications, not 6-7
Yup. Very difficult to use. But once you get used to it, it's not that bad. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
I like low maintenance G-Shock watches. This isn't one of them!
Well, I haven't used it for quite a while now. So, it might still have lots of battery in it. And yes, you might want to consider another model if you want longer battery life. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
very nice!
Thanks for the support bro 😎
Is it safe to wear in rain and swim in water and tell me which mobile app is connect for this watch and how much battery capacity this model have .
Hello there. I have been wearing the watch the whole day in a water theme park, swimming in a pool and in the shower with no issues. I use the Casio Move app to connect to my android and my iPhone. Battery life is supposed to be 2 years. But it all depends on how much you use the features I guess. Thanks for watching 😎
nice but its not solar....id love for it to have multiband6 AND bluethooth AND tough solar.....
Yup. Totally agreed. Thanks for watching 😎
i love it too, the only thing holding me back is the absence of tough solar.
Well, they will make one soon. Hopefully 😅. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
@@NMwatch there are some models they never make at all, was afraid that. Hopefully they are coming up with it soon.
How much does it costs.. Am looking at the h5600 but didn’t need the heart rate. I just hope it has solar…
This one cost about USD100 and it doesn't have a solar module. Thanks for watching 😎
wear it everyday for 2 years already (electric lime color) - one thing i miss the most is autolight
Can’t you enable it via Move App ?
unfortunately only solar powered gshocks has this feature...@@goodnota
Well, the auto light is available. But after a while it shuts itself. Maybe to save battery. Hopefully, Casio release this model with solar panels soon. That will definitely help with the auto light situation. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
I enable it just by pressing the light button. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
you're right - autolight exists, but on solar powered models it triggers only in the dark place (solar pannel used as light detector) and on this model it's triggers every time and drain battery very fast... @@NMwatch
Steps track is a thrash for me 😁
I sell this kind of my watch. And I stick to my GW-B5600MG.
Well to me, time and date purpose is what I need in a watch for a quick reading
Well, it's nice to have a few options. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
I've just got the 200uu model with the green highlights.
Good for you then. I'm just not bold enough to wear that colourway 😅. Thanks for watching 😎
Tbh pal you can hardly see the green on the watch the dark green lugs, buttons and one bit of green text is so dark it looks just like black the same as the watch to be fair.
My mistake bro. I thought it was the fluorescent yellow version. I nearly bought the same watch as yours 😅
@@a.j.e4349 He probably thinks you're referring to the dayglo green model . I got the Clear purple version. It's really dark and can look black when it's not under bright light. The uu version looks really nice. 👍
@@NMwatchme either. I don’t even like the orange in this, but it’s doable enough for it to work for me.
Witam. Jak to jest z tą wielkością, naprawdę jest taki duży ?
Hello there. Not that big if you have a wrist size of 6.5 inches or bigger. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
Aslamolikum
Can you please answer if it's possible to only get notifications for when someone is calling you and turn off all other app notifications?
Waalaikumussalam. I'll give it a try and let you know in the full review. Thanks for watching 😎
This is NOT tough solar, right? What's the battery life on this one?
Yup. No tough solar on this one. I''ve had this for about 4 months, so not really sure how long the battery will last. But safe to say 2 years. Thanks for watching 😎
W.s❤
Thanks for watching bro😎
Hello, may i know the price of this watch in Malaysia currently?

How to get hourly chimes to work on gbd 200 ?
Sadly, it didn't come with hourly chime. What a bummer. Thanks for watching 😎
You should buy older gdx-100 instead which has metal bezel
Also you can use watch without connecting to the phone from the watch settings menu which is activated by pressing top left button for a few seconds
Well. I don't really like the looks of the older model. Anyways, thanks for watching 😎
Scratches like godknowswhat
I bought this 2 days ago. Great looking watch but if it was a little bigger would have been perfect. Too small in my opinion
The size is a bit too big for me though 😅
@@NMwatch you must have tiny arms and wrist
Where did you buy it fir only 100$??

Which model is this one?
Hello there. This is the GBD-200-1DR. Thanks for watching 😎
Nearly 2x the price of the DW5600-BB, with a bunch of features I couldn't care less about. Pass.
