I have a number of these "smart" watches -several of which are the LIGE brand, and I'm convinced this is another LIGE due to the similarity in everything about the watch itself, the packaging, and what's included in the package! That, in case you didn't already recognize by my having several already, is a GOOD thing!
I enjoy having a choice of watches for the day, and the current breed of digital watches offers a wide variety of strap and case styles, combined with a huge variety of watch faces that you can set via an associated app. And they're pretty affordable.
The ESFOE watch (made by LIGE?!) bezel is metal, with only the back likely being plastic. (Same as most modern smart watches.) The overall design is rugged but also sophisticated. The screen is very nice, bright, and crisp, the crystal is very clear, and the touch screen is responsive.
The rubber strap feels good – very similar quality to my Apple Watch, as far as I can tell. However, my preference is for the metal bracelet. I especially like the catch that you squeeze to release the clasp that keeps it from releasing accidentally. I am also very pleased that the package includes a tool to remove links from the bracelet so you don't have to find a jeweller to do that. *NOTE that you press the split end of the pin through – not the smooth end.*
The flashlight works well enough, though it will never replace a real flashlight. It's actually quite convenient when you need it because it doesn't require a hand, though – it points wherever your forearm is pointing. But note two things: 1) Bending your wrist back will block the light. 2) If you wear your watch on your right wrist the light will shine up your arm; it really only works for those who wear their watch on their left wrist.
I used to monitor my sleep and my steps all the time… but with multiple watches on the go, it's hard to review any sort of history or trends, so I don't bother so much any more. But at a glance, the tracking appears to be pretty much what I expected judging against the benchmark set using my Fitbit Sense 2.
My only real frustration is that the app can only be configured to pair with a single watch at a time. This one uses the "FitCloudPro" app which is… alright… nothing special. But if you end up with two watches that use this app, you need to re-pair the app whenever you change watches which is mildly annoying. NOTE TO THE FitCloudPro TEAM: fix this!! (If you have a watch that uses the VeryFit app, that app will allow you to setup multiple watches and switch between them seamlessly. It can't be THAT much of a stretch?!)
Overall, I do very much like this watch and recommend it.
