Verdict

The MyKronoz ZeBracelet is a stylish, Swiss-designed smartwatch featuring a 128 x 32 pixel OLED display and Bluetooth 2.1 connectivity for hands-free calling and music streaming. Key specifications include a 150mAh Li-ion battery providing 2-3 hours of talk time and up to 72 hours of standby, a built-in microphone and speaker for managing calls directly from the wrist, and an anti-loss vibration alert that triggers when the paired device is more than 10 meters away. Its main advantages are the elegant, bracelet-like aesthetic that doubles as a fashion accessory and its compatibility with both Android and iOS devices; however, it lacks water resistance, a touchscreen, and advanced health sensors like a heart rate monitor or accelerometer.

Summary of the review

MyKronoz ZeBracelet BlueTooth Smartwatch - Black (Customer Review by Adam Caruth)

The MyKronoz ZeBracelet is a Swiss-designed wearable with a sleek, jewellery-like aesthetic featuring a curved OLED screen. While the design is a plus, the build quality is often considered cheap, with a black plastic finish and poor visibility in direct sunlight. Functionally, the device serves as a Bluetooth speakerphone with caller ID, music streaming, and a 10-metre "loss alert". However, it suffers from significant cons, including frequent connectivity drops, lack of call privacy, and poor audio quality. With a 150mAh battery, the watch often fails to last a full day under normal use. Furthermore, critics cite the, "nightmare" two-pin charging mechanism and the lack of waterproofing as major drawbacks. For more details, visit Mobile Fun.

Summary of the review

MyKronoz ZeBracelet Review: wrist in peace

The MyKronoz ZeBracelet, reviewed on Gearburn, offers a fashionable bangle-style design featuring a curved OLED screen, but suffers from a glossy finish that attracts fingerprints and poor visibility in direct sunlight. While acting as a functional Bluetooth extension with decent call audio, the device is plagued by persistent connectivity issues and a,, often, uncomfortable, rigid fit. Functionally, the wearable delivers call notifications, music control, and a speaker/microphone, yet it lacks a companion app and features an unintuitive interface with limited display space. The "anti-lost" alarm often triggers unnecessarily, reducing its overall utility as a daily companion. Despite these flaws, the device boasts a solid three-day battery life, outperforming many 2014 rivals in that regard. Ultimately, the review concludes the ZeBracelet prioritizes style over substance, serving as a basic, affordable entry-level accessory for fashion-conscious users.

MyKronoz ZeWatch Review: A Bluetooth Hands-Free Kit Disguised as a Watch (Includes ZeBracelet Review)

The 01net review describes the MyKronoz ZeWatch as a Bluetooth hands-free kit disguised as a smartwatch, offering limited functionality focused on answering calls, displaying caller IDs, and acting as a remote speaker. Pros include its stylish, lightweight, and comfortable design, easy pairing with iOS/Android devices, and a practical anti-loss vibration alert for when the phone moves out of range. However, significant cons are noted, including an unreadable OLED screen in sunlight, frequent Bluetooth disconnections, poor speaker quality, and a frustrating one-day battery life with a difficult charging mechanism.

Summary of the review

Review: MyKronoz ZeWatch & ZeBracelet

The ID.nl review characterizes the MyKronoz ZeWatch as a Bluetooth-enabled, wrist-mounted headset designed for calls and notifications, rather than a modern, feature-rich smartwatch. It features a small 128x32 OLED display, a built-in microphone/speaker, and an anti-loss vibration alert for when the phone exceeds a 10-meter range. Key strengths include a comfortable design, a screen-rotation feature, and, despite its limitations, a stylish, Swiss-influenced aesthetic. Significant drawbacks mentioned in the review include difficult readability in bright light, a lack of call-muting, and a disappointing 2-3 hour talk time. Furthermore, the device is criticized for its fiddly proprietary charger and an unconventional, often unclear, time display.
