Third-party reviews

What customers like about Mykronoz ZeWatch

  • Sleek and attractive Swiss-inspired design
  • Comfortable to wear for extended periods
  • Useful as a wrist-worn Bluetooth speaker/headset for calls while driving
  • Simple and beginner-friendly setup process
  • Affordable price point compared to high-end smartwatches
  • Effective basic activity tracking features like step counting

What customers don't like about Mykronoz ZeWatch

  • Frequent Bluetooth disconnection issues, even at short range
  • Display is dim and difficult to read in direct sunlight
  • Short battery life, often failing to last a full day
  • Cumbersome two-pin charging system that can be difficult to align
  • Limited functionality on iOS compared to Android devices
  • Anti-lost vibration feature can be overly sensitive and annoying
  • Software/app syncing glitches and lack of third-party app support

Verdict

The Mykronoz ZeWatch is a Swiss-designed Bluetooth smartwatch featuring a slim 128x32 pixel OLED display and a 150mAh Li-ion battery that provides approximately 2 to 3 hours of talk time and 48 hours of standby. Its primary characteristics include an integrated speaker and microphone for hands-free calling, music streaming from paired devices, and a vibrate-to-alert anti-lost system that triggers when the phone exceeds a 10-metre range. Main pros include its lightweight 45-gram design, intuitive side buttons for call management, and broad compatibility with iOS, Android, and Windows Phone devices. However, notable cons include its lack of water resistance, relatively short battery life compared to modern fitness trackers, and reports of static during calls on certain phone models.
