I was looking for a budget smart watch to replace my old and broken Samsung Galaxy Gear S3 Frontier. After using the watch for years, I realized the exact aspects I need in a I smart watch and what I don't, so the new Galaxy watch doesn't seem neccessary or a good value to me. Also, I was looking for a more durable build, a watch that I can do the gym, yard work, wash my hands in, use power tools with high vibration, go for days in the woods hiking and camping with a battery that would last... I didn't want to spend big money on a $1000 Garmin with the GPS and all that because I also want to be able to just throw away the watch if it breaks due to my abuse, and buy a new one, so less than $200 was my target. I went with the curved version of the Tank first. I fell in love with the bright, crisp amoled screen and the plethora of free watch faces instantly. Then the usefulness of all the stuff I had on my Samsung watch was stuffed in here at a much cheaper price point. But the shape didn't feel right to me, it felt like a large fit bit on my wrist and I like a watch. So I tried the TRex Pro by Amazfit. It was a little more money but had GPS built in. Down side was the watch was very plastic, very light and cheap feeling and the screen was too dim and not sharp enough for someone spoiled by Samsung. Then I found this watch, which is the Tank T2, and realized it's a Kospet same as the curved screen Tank I had originally bought. For the price point, I don't need GPS, but instead I get metal, solid feeling build quality, call connectivity with my phone, meets all my workout tracking needs, outdoor needs, battery life is way longer than Samsung, watch face choices are vast, the Kospet app is straight forward and easy to use. I spent $50 less on the Tank T2 than I did on the TRex Pro and in all ways other than the GPS, the Tank2 seems like the better watch...cool. I posted a couple pics to show you can customize the watch face from your gallery, but the camera on my ZFold 4 doesn't do the watch screen any justice, it's just as bright and sharp as my Samsung watch. It's only been a couple days so we'll see how it holds up under daily wear and tare. I installed the screen protector that came with the watch so I'm not worried about scratches to the face, and that metal frame will look tuff when it starts to get nicks and scratches. This is not my dress-up watch... At $100, I'm not gonna feel terrible if I destroy it working on a lawnmower or something. I'd recommend if you need a budget friendly watch with call, sms, etc. connectivity to your phone, water resistant microphone and speaker that is loud, (the TRex Pro doesn't have a mic or speaker, by the way, so no talking to your virtual assistant from your wrist and hearing responses) great fitness tracking, not overly blocky like a military style tactical watch but still very masculine and rugged looking, and feels more expensive than it is. I'm pleasantly surprised by the Tank T2 smart watch. ***Quick update. I don't know if this is due to poor build quality or a more common chemical reaction, but after a couple nights out in the woods with bug spray all over me for the mosquitoes, the plastic on the back of the watch looks to be melted...? I've had the watch about 4 days. First outdoor trip with it. I'm guessing the melting is from a chemical reaction to the Deet in the insect repellent spray? Surely it couldn't be from poking the campfire and roasting marshmallows, since this mil spec watch has a higher temp tolerance than my hand... I've included some nee pics of the back of the watch. Any explanations are welcomed...Haven't changed my rating because I still like this watch. Read more

I had purchased 2 other watches before this, a Wahoo ELEMNT and the Garmin 010-02174-01 vivoactive 4. I had hard time seeing or reading the watch while riding etc, that was main reason, I purchased this one mainly for the bright display, the other #1 choice was the Heart rate monitor.. which is only good for + - 35 BPM.. Yes 35 !!! I had place a real monitor on to compare, and this watch isn't even close..so i figure when I feel my eyes starting to pulse i look down and see 96 i add 35 and BAM i figure my rate is about 130-135, This is a very nice watch overall , screen and battery are awesome and the band is comfy too. but the other issue is that unless you load up the screen you like, there is no way to tell the battery level ... Seriously with all the little things in this watch they couldn't but a battery level indicator ? Read more

The Tank2 has a good battery power length and connection by pairing is strong. I've noticed occassional unpairings and the occasional fail to read bio-info. Sleep info does not register all night if I have to get up and come back. Read more

Blood pressure app off by up to 30 points. Checked in Doctors office. Sad. Battery life about 60 hours not 60 days with my regular use, that is from 7 am to 9 pm brightness set to 50 %, always on display, on, raise hand to turn on display, on. (the displays are different) After 9 pm set to convenient low power function: brightness at 25 % , all displays off, face only showing for a few seconds after pushing button. All other functions seem to work fine. I like the displays and the overall appearance and the Mobile App but the blood pressure function is useless and the battery live is disappointing considering the add stated 60 days. update after owning watch for 5 month (bought May 2023) taking of another star because step counter broke, randomly changing step count down through the day, extremely frustrating because I have a goal every day. taking another star of for not replying to three contacts I made through their feedback on their app. Have to buy another watch or be frustrated every day.

I received a Tank T2 watch as a gift last December. It worked great for 4 months. All the various functions worked well and the battery life was amazing I usually got at least a week to 10 days of battery life with regular use. If I changed to the "Always On" mode (the time is shown on the face always except when I pushed the "On" button or when I was using the regular dial face with any of the several applications. In the Always On mode the battery needed to be charged once a day. The blue-tooth phone connection works very well. I wore the watch at the beach several days , in the ocean and in the swimming pool. One day after swimming several laps in the pool the dial face stopped illuminating. The cell phone app showed that the watch was still functioning but the dial face was dark. I reported this to the company and they instructed me to contact a special Customer Service Dept specifically for servicing these watches. I contacted them by email. Within an hour an agent named Lorna replied back and requested that I email a short video to her showing how the watch was malfunctioning. I did that late on Thursday night. The next morning, Friday, Lorna replied saying that they reviewed my video and they would be sending me a new watch for no charge. She said that some times the watch waterproof seal fails if the watch is left in hot water like a shower or a hot tub or very hot direct sunshine for a long time. Lorna advised me that these watches have a 24 month warrantee so I can be confident that I am protected if this happens again. The very next day, Saturday, I received the brand new replacement watch delivered to my front door by Amazon. Truly fast and friendly service. I've been wearing my new Tank T2 for the past week and I really love this watch. And their Customer Service is amazingly fast. Read more
