The editors didn't like
Half-baked smartwatch features
Managing music is a nightmare
Very big if you have small wrists
It does not look like a smartwatch that costs $300. Fit is a little strange because of the convex bottom
Small and rectangular with low resolution
Uses a nonstandard connector
And the stock band isn't very comfortable. The buckle also does not lay flat
Buggy sync process
Lack of apps
No workout audio cues
Music interfacing is flaky
Functionality as a smartwatch is severely limited
Nonexercise apps don't really do much
As pricey as an Apple Watch
Limited 3rd party support
Fitbit Pay not yet active in UK
Slow interface
Needs more third-party apps
Loading music is cumbersome
Notifications can't be interacted with

Few are available yet. Included apps feel slow and don't launch from the watch face. There's not much on-watch coaching and music storage and playback is often more trouble than it's worth

To sum it up, the Ionic seems to be a mixed bag as things stand currently. While its smartwatch features aren't too exciting, it shines in other aspects like the choice of clock faces available, fitness-tracking capabilities, and battery life. The kind of...
