As an owner of countless smartwatches the Canyon Smart Watch Jacky SW-69 is a nice watch to look at and use despite the name it has been given, having said that many companies do tend to give their products funny names or quesitonable numbers added on the the product and we shall not name those.
This smartwatch has it all bar calls on the watch itself or the option to respond to messages, it instead lets you look at your mails social media messages and more nmot forgetting the suite of sports activities and health features on board you can accept and reject calls and the notifictions are not rich notifications you will see more in the video review below.
With health and fitness in mind this watch does have you covered in fairness, there is plenty on board even for the more demanding type at the price level and from testing data is failty accurate when paired against other watches I own and test out not just high end ones either.
Notifications are on the button bit not rich you get a basic line of thext which is fine as it is a simple approach smartwatch and for me even though I have more expensive watches I could easily wear this as a daily it keeps you off your phone like any other smatwatch does.
Overall this is a nice simple to use smartwatch with a simple app and people like simple and it offers plenty for the fitness and health gurus out there and looks nice too with a simple magentic strap how much simpler do you want it..

The Lypertek Soundfree S30 is a versatile pair of open-ear headphones designed for active lifestyles. Unlike traditional earbuds that sit in your ear canal, the S30 uses cartilage (bone) conduction technology, which delivers sound through the cartilage of your ear while leaving your ear canal open. This is a key feature for runners, cyclists, and anyone who needs to be aware of their surroundings and with the dark evenings closing in these are ideal and not only this there is a safety LED light to make others aware you are there especially for those joggers who still insist on wearing all Black in the dark

The audio clear with balanced audio with 10mm drivers, though they may not have the deep bass of traditional in-ear headphones Lypertek has included three EQ presets (Bass, Balance, and Vocal) that you can switch between with a simple tap and there is a notable difference between the EQs, I would of like to have seen an app but hey they are good as is out of the box.

There is no shortage of smartwatches today and the good thing is for some the price has come down, there is high end like the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Watch 6 from Samsung I use and there is entry level and of course mid tier, how these shape out in features though is the thing for users and often the case they buy something they don’t need, then you have the likes of fitbits which for the most are just activity tracers not offering much else but you can now get smartwatches for under 5o euro that has it all and one of the best in this class is the latest from TOZO who are know for their audio products.
We have reviewed plenty of watches recently that look the same as this and has a similar software setup however this one goes further than most and is worth the spend with all the features there is on offer here. The you get an app that works on both iOS and Android packed with settings and again more than I have seen in the past.
So what do you get for your money here with the all new TOZO S3 smartwatch.. You get quite alot in fact for the money with this watch and as mentioned there is plenty like it and looking similar but this one stands out with features and has more than many I have tested in recent weeks here and I really like it.
We have all the fitness apps you expect to see here you have you can accept calls on this too which is a real bonus you have step counter, heart rate monitoring and much more which we go through in the video below as there is lots to see, you also have a watch face gallery and these are nice face and current one with today’s trends.
Now with a cheap smartwatch you do miss out on some features but in comparison to market leaders here you get quite a but more here the only real thing missing is not being able to reply to social and emails etc it is not a rich message experience however you can read everything fine here and the screen is bright and good outdoors.
