Affordable wearable tech that does more than competitors
I purchased this singularly due to it's ability to detect arrhythmias and blood pressure- unique features of this band. I was using a separate wrist cuff previously, but it was not convenient and did not take readings automatically throughout the night. I like that it also can measure heart rate automatically throughout the day/night. This has been highly useful to track patterns. It has a comfortable band and a convenient charging feature (though removing and replacing the band makes me nervous I will break the usb tab). It was a little challenging using the instruction manual, but not excessively so. I do wish that manual captures on the wristband had the option of recording to the app directly. Metris or Imperial settings from app and alarm feature. An unexpected and useful feature is getting call alerts and text previews from my phone on my band, especially when I am not in arms reach of my phone, or it is on silent. The price was a good value and I received it on time. Because of my frequent alert settings, my battery appears to last 2 days. Considering this as gifts to others, because of the usefulness I have encountered.

I really like the many functions of the activity tracker
I really like the many functions of the activity tracker, however I had a slow start. The manual was tiny and hard to read. For a non-techie like me, reading the manual can be as confusing as frustrating. I figured out how to charge the innovative device. I even figured out how to pair it in Bluetooth. But I had to get help for the device to start tracking and sync with the app. Then using the tried and true, touch this and see what happens technique. It still took two days before my sleep figures emerged. I have a Fitbit but the figures are usually different in comparison. I have yet to have my medical center calibrate the blood pressure figures for accuracy. All in all after I got it working, it seems to be a good value for the price I paid. I haven’t tested it at wateraerobics for its waterproof value.

Lost doing yardwork
Very similar in looks to fit but charge. I like the blood pressure monitor that is built in. Not fond about having to charge every three days. The clasp on the band is easily dislodged when doing something physical such as yard work or exercising. Lost the tracker doing yardwork because of the band. Did not feel it pop loose and had collected about 240 gallons of debris before realizing it was gone. Spent a half hour looking for it to no avail. I will not buy it again since I can not use it for yardwork.

Don't wear
I've had mine for awhile now but I never use it. The display is very lite and hard to see and when I tap on it to see my steps, half the time it doesn't work. Plus mine doesn't hold a charge but for a few days. So I never wear it.

I love the sleep tracking
I love the sleep tracking, steps, activity, blood pressure and heart rate capabilities that this tracker has. They are wonderful. The only thing keeping me from giving 5 out of 5 is that the app only maintains the information for 3 days. I wish that I could track how I am doing for longer than that. Being slightly obese, I love that being able to keep track of my walking is helping me to continue to move. Hopefully this will truly help me back on track.

Good while it last
Was difficult to keep synced to my phone. After a couple of months wouldn't charge well. Band broke and couldn't repair. Tried to use safety pin to keep it together but wasn't worth it. Good while it lasted but will just get a fitbit....

Questionable purchase.
Arrived when promised. No warranty info available. Instructions are included but skimpy. The band attaches at both ends of the "electronic portion" Band attaches with friction, there is no locking mechanism. To charge the "unit" (for lack of a better term), it must be "pulled" away from the band and the "unit" plugs into any USB port. No cables are utilized. The band ends must be carefully pulled from the "unit" at an angle as a hard plastic portion on the "unit" can break. Since the band piece is required to be pulled away from the "unit" whenever it is charged, It won't be long before the band wears and won't remain attached. The Alisten did show signs of detecting pulse rate and blood pressure, the readings were not compared to any other electronic device readings. Made in China. Returned my purchase and promptly refunded.
