What owners say about the Wyze Band

Based on 59 owners sharing their experience in online comments

39%positive12%mixed49%negative

Owners value the smart home controls, but unreliable connectivity and Alexa keep the band from feeling dependable.

What owners dislike

  • Owners say the band keeps disconnecting from the phone; forgetting the device in Bluetooth settings, reinstalling, or toggling Bluetooth sometimes restores the link, but the problem returns.10
  • Owners say Alexa often fails to respond, shows 'Connection Lost' or 'No Response' errors, and works only some of the time.5
  • Owners say notifications are missing for many apps, including less-known social apps, and some iPhone users get almost none.5
  • Owners say smart home and camera controls stop working unless the phone's Wyze app is open in the background.4
  • Owners say voice commands and smart controls respond slowly and feel clunky.3
  • Owners say the step counter is inaccurate, often missing steps or differing a lot from other trackers like Apple Watch.3
  • Owners say water, including showering, often triggers Alexa or the screen by accident, and one band rebooted after a shower.3
  • Customer support does not respond3

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Wyze Band

  • Unresponsive 'raise-to-wake' feature and occasionally laggy touchscreen interface

Verdict

The Wyze Band is a budget-friendly activity tracker featuring a 0.95-inch AMOLED color touchscreen with a 120 x 240 resolution and a lightweight 2.6-ounce design. Driven by a Cypress PSoC 6 dual-core processor and 16MB of flash storage, it offers 24/7 heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and a dedicated run mode, all while maintaining a 5ATM water-resistance rating (submersible up to 50 meters). Its standout characteristics include built-in Amazon Alexa with a dual-microphone array and a 120mAh battery that delivers an impressive 10-14 days of life on a single charge. Major pros include its exceptional value, long-lasting battery, and the ability to control Wyze smart home devices directly from the wrist. However, notable cons include the lack of built-in GPS, limited support for diverse workout types beyond running, and reported inconsistencies with step counting and the 'raise-to-wake' feature.
