The Zepp Z looks great and has some cool features. It's a shame its price will scare most consumers away.

| Bottom Line | Zepp's sophomore smartwatch release builds on the strengths of the first. It's a gorgeous timepiece with absolutely insane battery life. It nails all the essentials and even has some premium features, such as wireless charging and built-in GPS. However, just as with its predecessor, the health tracking is unreliable, there are no third-party apps, and its price is too high for what you get (and what you don't). Once again, Zepp has made a smartwatch that will only be useful to people who care about looks and battery life over everything else. |
