what's happening everyone my name is alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking
out the latest smartwatch from kospet called the tank m1 as the name suggests this watch is built
like a tank so this is shock proof waterproof and dust proof so you can take the watch to the beach
for example you can put it into sand you can go swimming with it you can take daily showers with
it and nothing will happen to the watch i've been wearing this particular run for a couple of weeks
and it still looks like new aside from that the watch will display all the notifications that
you get throughout the day on your phone so you can see them on the watch to also track the steps
that you do throughout the day it will track your heart rate and much more but before we talk more
about the watch let's see what comes in the box all right so the watch comes in a pretty small
box and of course inside the box you're gonna find the watch itself and two replacement rubber straps
from it the rubber straps are different colors so you can use a different strap depending on what
you're wearing there is also a small user manual in the box however the watch is super simple to
use and aside from that you're gonna find the charging cable for the watch so the charging
cable attaches with magnets to the back of the watch it takes about two hours to fully charge the
watch from zero to a hundred but you're not gonna have to charge this watch very often because on
one charge you can typically get about two weeks of usage and i'm talking about two weeks of usage
with all the functions enabled so constant heart rate monitoring all the notifications that you get
weather and so much more so you're not gonna have to charge this watch very often which is
definitely a good thing taking a look at the watch itself well the watch is mostly made out
of plastic and yes it does have this sporty look on the right hand side here we have the only two
buttons available and at the bottom we have the contacts for the charger and the sensors for the
heart rate monitor and all the other functions of the watch on the front here we have a 1.72 inches
ips panel for the screen this is also a touch screen and you can also control the brightness
so there are different levels of brightness so for example if you're outdoors of course you're going
to use the maximum level of brightness and the screen does get bright enough so you can actually
see the indirect sunlight the watch also supports that feature where the screen comes on every time
you turn the arm towards yourself it takes about half a second from the time you turn your hand
for the screen to come on so i think it works really good mostly for a watch at this price range
you can also change the watch faces to do there are a variety of watch faces available and you
can change them from the app and we're going to talk about the app next so the watch pairs to your
phone through an app called the fit the app is available for android and ios i've personally been
using this with my iphone and it works great with an iphone as well from the app you have access to
all the settings for the watch of course you can also change the settings for the watch from the
watch itself but sometimes it's easier to change them right from the app and of course the app will
keep track of all the steps that you do throughout the day your heart rate throughout the day the
oxygen saturation and throughout the day and so on so yes this watch can also track the oxygen
saturation in your blood there is also a function that allows you to measure your blood pressure but
i don't have any other device at home that could measure my blood pressure so i can't really talk
about the accuracy of that but for the heart rate for the steps that i do throughout the day for
the oxygen saturation in my blood for those the watch gets about the same values as i get with my
huawei watch so accuracy wise i think it's pretty accurate there are also a variety of sporting
activities that you can choose from the watch itself so if you go walking if you go running if
you go biking the watch can track all that but keep in mind that the watch doesn't have a gps
unit inside so that may not be totally accurate to get more accurate the results you'd probably need
a watch that has a gps unit inside but that will also increase the price of the device so i can
see why they haven't actually included a gps unit inside this using the watch is also super simple
since we have a touch screen so for example if you want to check out the notifications that you get
you just swipe um right from the home screen and you can see all the notifications that you got on
your phone you cannot reply to any notifications from the watch but you can definitely see them and
if there is something important you basically take your phone out and reply to whatever notification
you want the same kind of goes for all the other functions of the watch basically swipe left right
up or down depending on what you're doing with the watch for example if you want to check out
the oxygen saturation in your blood you can just go to that function and the watch will measure
that the same kind of goes for the blood pressure and so on so there you have it this is the cosmet
tank m1 i'm happy to see that cospet moved away from those smartwatches that were running a full
version of android and we get something like this because with all those other watches the
battery life wasn't great but with this one that we only have to charge maybe once every two weeks
i am much much happier with the watch like this not to mention the price of a watch like this
is also lower than the other ones that are running a full version of android and this
one kind of does the same thing as the other ones well this is more of a fitness tracker than
a smartwatch i'm gonna say but personally i do prefer fitness trackers over smartwatches alright
guys hopefully this video was useful thanks for watching and i'll see you in the next one
