Impressive features but…

I've been looking for a new smart watch after becoming a bit disappointed the inaccurate HR readings of my previous one.
This watch is impressive. It works very well with my phone and I like that you can get more information by sending things to your phone to open on the app.
I have set the heart rate to read continously as that is very important for me. The HR does seems accurate when resting, however when using at the gym you need to make sure that it is positioned correctly otherwise it can be very innacurate. I was very disappointed to see the HR being more than 40bpm out against the gym equipment reading, however once I moved it further up my wrist it was lining up exactly,
The biggest disappointment of the watch is the battery life. I'm finding I have to charge it every night otherwise it would die midway through the next day. A normal day plus a gym session left about 20% battery on the watch .
Also I am finding it takes multiple attempts to connect the charger. As it is magnetic I did think this would be less of a hassle.
The strap has a very nice feel and I love how the end tucks inside the watch - no piece hanging around and getting caught on things.
The watch looks great and I love how customisable the face is.
Overall I do like the watch a lot. My favourite feature is actually the breathe one. I have it on the face and it does remind me to take a second to just breathe every so often.
The battery life is disappointing but I can get over it!
