(+)ve

Padometer is very bad, I walked for 6 KM but it shows 51 steps,
Watch is getting heated up very fast, when WiFi hotspot is enabled.
Micro USB charging slot in BlueTooth headphone is bad, does not properly fit with the charger.
Can not wear on Right Hand as it is designed for left hand only.
Screen does not rotate.
Not sure how to change WATCH FACE.
Day 4 Experience:

With BlueTooth, the voice clarity is good. Without BlueTooth, the voice can be heard only by enabling the Loud Speaker(by default ON) and same is audible to all around us.

I did a software update. Now, iWalk is not working any more. Screen rotation is not happening too.
Charger Base is bad. It has a magnet to hold the watch base, but with minor vibration such as incoming call or SMS the base moves away from charging pin and we need to readjust the same to continue charging.
To see the Call Log, its a nightmare. Go to phone dialer and slide from left to right. After minimum of 5 to 6 attemt only, it shows the call log menu.
Double tap on screen does not activate the watch at one go.
First screen is the WATCH to see the time. Once we slide right to see Android screen, there is no way to come back to WATCH any more. We need to press top button to blank out display and then again press the same button to see the watch.
Battery life of the BlueTooth headphone is the worst in its class. Use or not, every 20 minutes, it would drain out and a beautiful voice would say the same to you very politely.
*Day 5 Experience:
(-)ve*
How to receive a call? Tap on GREEN icon to Answer the call. It does not work with single tap, we need to keep the finger tip on the Green icon pressed to answer the call. They say, the touch screen is ultra sensitive but it does not seem so.
I had filed claim under eBay Guarantee claim for not being satisfied 100%. There was a call back from eBay after few days. They begin with stating, "eBay is a market place and is not responsible for the Product quality. The product quality / defects / bad design shall be addressed by the seller and I should get in touch with the Seller." Wonderful market practice policy from eBay. This was my first purchase from eBay and this is going to be my LAST too.
Any way, iRist is still with me and here are the more experience from usage:
(-)ve
1/ Software update does nothing in iRist. It is not known, what have they updated.
2/ iConnect: This is utter failure. All comments can be seen with ZERO satisfaction in the App itself in Play Store with ZERO Response from iNTEX. Infact, there is a BIG DISCONNECT between ICONNECT and INTEX.
3/ When the battery is completely OUT and we recharge the watch, we need to set the DATE and TIME again.
4/ iWalk is a complete failure. Every time I touch the icon to launch the App, it says "App not installed". When I check the App section, it says "App Running". Who is a fool here?
More. shall be posted as and when experience increases with this device!
- Thank You! We appreciate your effort.
