It is back to school time, what a better way to send your children off than with a Citizen CZ Smart Watch.
The Citizen CZ Smart Smartwatch is a very cool watch with a number of great features. Not only does it run on the full-featured Wear OS platform (from Google) that can connect to your Android or iOS-based smartphone so you can receive notifications of things like incoming texts, calls, and emails, but it’s also a very attractive watch aesthetically.
Each of the versions is meant to look more like a classic Citizen sports watch than anything. The retro-vibe of the case and bezel design work in its favor, with the ultra-modernity of the touchscreen.
The CZ Smart case is 46mm-wide in steel, with one version in IP-coated black color, while each has a distinctive color palette for aluminum bezel insert. The case finishing is very good for a smartwatch, and part of what Citizen brings to the table. If you want a full-fledged smartwatch that doesn’t wear as thick as the competition, the CZ Smart is a great choice.
Over the screen is a Gorilla Glass crystal. The screen is bright and sharp. The screen is also responsive. Citizen does a great thing by using the crown as a scrolling input device. Citizen packs most of the sensors that consumers expect in a smartwatch into the CZ Smart. That includes GPS, as well as a heart-rate monitor. The latter is very important to those who rely on their smartwatch for fitness activities. The CZ Smartwatch charges wirelessly via a magnetic charging dock and has battery life on par with other watches.
The CZ Smart has an always-on screen state that is a low-resolution, low-power state for the dial. Depending on the selected watch face, the always-on state will be different. The quality and execution are well-done.
Citizen has done a great job with the CZ Smart. It looks great on the wrist and is a solid product. Citizen CZ Smart was just how light it felt. Though it is listed as weighing 150 grams, it certainly doesn’t feel like it. It wore light and comfortable on the wrist.
The CZ Smart is a great smartwatch for anyone who wants to have a watch that can basically do anything and everything a smartphone can do. This is the perfect gift to send your children off to school with.
