That has also been my experience with this model. I’ve been using it for about a month now. I originally planned on trying to use the accelerometer data over Bluetooth to build a custom control input for Frame smart glasses, but I got busy and never got around to that. But I’ve been wearing it as a health tracker and the heart rate and sleep tracking seem pretty accurate relative to my Apple Watch, and the blood oxygen measurement is generally a couple percentage lower than my Apple Watch. I have no idea what the stress thing is even supposed to measure, it’s just a random number that doesn’t seem to have any correlation with real life and there’s no units or explanation.
I get about four days of battery life with all of the sensors turned up to maximum frequency, which is every 5 minutes at least for the heart rate. Surprisingly good for such a small lightweight device. I imagine it could go a lot longer if you turned down the sensors to a lower frequency. I found a good rhythm is to charge it when I take showers, that seems to be a good balance and it never comes close to dying. My Apple Watch on the other hand regularly dies before I go to bed, and I can’t wear it for sleep tracking because it can’t last that long.
I will never understand people that pay a monthly subscription to access basic local sensor information like this. Yet I see people wearing subscription-based smart rings all the time. I don’t get it.
