Gokoo smart watch with fitness tracker features called Q9L that has a round shape and a premium finish giving the smartwatch an elegant and modern look
the Q9L could be one of the most attractive budget options currently available
stay with me to find out more.
welcome back - it's Adam from #FamilyPopTV
it comes in a simple neat box, where you can find the watch itself and a two sets of wrist straps.
an elegant classic metal strap and a waterproof sporty TPU soft silicone replacement sport strap with stainless steel buckle.
i will show you how to attach the straps at the end of this very video (skip to 08:10) - it's pretty simple and straightforward.
in the box we can also find a multilingual instruction manual and a magnetic charging cable.
the display screen is a color 1.3 inch TFT LCD touch screen with 240 x 240 pixels resolution
the display provides a clear visual experience and it has a nice colors that make it easy to read the text and information.
it has five steps of brightness
i have it here on maximum and it could be brighter to be honest..
the display lits up automatically as you raise your wrist up.
the Gokoo Q9L is available in four color options which are:
- rose gold, silver, black gold and black.
if you're getting one or you're looking for a decent budget friendly watch, there's Amazon links in our video description where you could find the Q9L for the best possible prices available.
the Q9L comes with an elegant and sporty design that is thin and lightweight,
as the body is made out of zinc alloy so the total weight is only 70 grams.
we got a G-sensors at the plastic back panel of the watch,
there are a magnetic charging pins and there is one button on the right side of the case
Q9L looks neat and it's having an IP67 waterproof enclosure so no worries about getting wet while you're washing your hands or taking a bath or even swim
we have done a simple waterproof test just to verify if the Q9L is really waterproof as manufacturers says.
to recap, the IP67 means the unit can be dropped into a body of water up to a meter deep for half an hour,
and it's obviously resistant to dust.
the Q9L is being sold under several generic brands worldwide,
the most popular are GOKOO, Rundoing, Gulu, YWS, and a few more generic brands.
however, in most countries you'll be able to find Q9L under Gokoo brand.
the Q9L is available worldwide on Amazon.
you can get it on Amazon Deutschland for around 55€
Amazon France, Italy and Spain for around 60€
and Amazon Poland for around 308PLN.
the Q9L uses the Q-Watch companion app that you install on your phone.
once paired with the watch it sets up the time automatically and controls most of the Q9L's functionality.
you'll have to scan a QR code with your smartphone to get to the Apple Store or Google Play as the app is compatible with both iOS and Android.
the QR code can be found either in the included manual or directly from the watch screen - you can find the QR code in the settings menu.
here in the app you'll get a nice graph of your activities, set the alarms, set your goals, notifications etc etc.
and it gives you control on everything the Q9L has to offer.
it has a slightly different layout than most of the apps for the budget watches, however the items are arranged in a logical way.
i'll quickly show you the most important features the Q9L has to offer.
it has a pretty high degree of customization, as you will be able to download watch faces from the selection of around 80 of them,
plus you'll be able to create your own watch face using any photo or image from your smartphone as a background.
scale it and crop it and here we go!
it's being sent to the watch almost instantly.
now this is an example of a custom watch face.
this can be done through the companion app.
step counter or pedometer:
the step counter is well accurate it gives you an estimation but we challenge its accuracy
my wife has performed 1000 steps with a manual tally counter and the Q9L has counted 1003 steps at the same time,
which gives us a pretty decent 99.7% accuracy. that's good!
the Q9L is pretty accurate in monitoring the heart rate and blood pressure and the blood oxygen saturation
SpO2 is fine.
we have compared the heart rate readings from the Q9L with the medical pulse oximeter,
which has got a high accuracy of the heart rate measurements.
as you can see the Q9L performs pretty good.
we have compared the blood pressure readings from the Q9L with medical blood pressure monitor and the blood pressure is not far off.
as you can see the Q9L performs fine,
the blood pressure is pretty accurate.
don't forget this isn't a medical device so the readings are basically for reference only
tracking of the menstrual cycle:
if you would indicate during the companion app onboarding process that you are female,
you can use the menstrual cycle tracking feature to log details about your ovulation period.
obviously these features are turned off if you indicate it that you are a man.
sleep tracking, which measures the length of sleep the proportion of deep sleep and the light sleep.
can't really confirm the accuracy here but it seems to be fine,
however the sleep measurement didn't trigger twice during 7 days of our tests.
Q9L has got 6 sports modes:
- running, - walking,
- hiking, - weight exercise,
- swing, which can be used to track badminton, tennis or ping pong,
- and rope skipping.
you can easily keep track of these exercises in real time directly on the watch
and it allows you to understand your physical condition.
unfortunately the Q9L hasn't got a GPS on board so you can't track your position during workouts.
real-time message notifications - it pushes the notifications about incoming text messages and social apps messages,
as well as notifications about an incoming calls.
you can't pick the incoming call you could only drop it.
it will work only when your watch is connected with your smartphone.
there are other useful features which would require bluetooth connection with your phone,
and there are: - find phone,
- music player control,
- the weather info - this pushes the weather info from your phone
and a camera control.
the watch also has a stopwatch and one built-in game which is Wack-A-Mole.
basically you'll have to hit the moles when they jump from their holes. pretty entertaining.
it has a 180mAh battery which should last you on average from five to seven days top with the normal use
assuming the watch is constantly connected via bluetooth with your phone,
or up to 4 weeks when the watch is in a standby mode
to sum up, if you're looking for an inexpensive smartwatch or activity tracker which is fashionable and has a stylish design,
you definitely won't be disappointed with your purchase.

pull this little pin here and then you pull the strap away from the watch
and to put it back - or replace it with a new strap you just have to reverse the steps,
pull the pin - pull the strap away from the watch

simple and straightforward.
