Still dont know where come from the sound of this watch phone... Possible to have a closer look about the loudspeaker ?

Dear all about keyboard I can’t find the button to send the message with WATCHDROID…can you send me a screenshot?

Hello, this is my short review: Wlan, Bt (incl. audio, 5 meters away), GPS, 4G, phone function works very well. The screen is a little darker than Lem5 Pro, too bad. Waking up the screen by turning the wrist takes longer than with the Lem5. The battery life is very good, although the percentage display decreases very erraticlly. For navigation etc. the watch could certainly use 1GB Ram more (2GB Ram like Lem5 pro). For skin comfort, a lower stainless steel cover would be better than plastic. The keyboard does not support qwertz. keyboard on lem5 was very good. gboard does not work for me (no access to special characters and no return/go key, outside of screen).
Could someone tell me how to get the notifications on the clock from IOS. Lem5 supports the ANCS protocol without an additional app. I don’t use the Wiiwatch app, I don’t like and need the app. For shortcut use I installed Floating Toucher. All official photos of Lemfo from the screen are fakes. The screen has a big frame. but with the right clock face this is okay for me.
All in all, I would say it is the best smartwatch so far. I hope for firmware extension regarding the ancs-protocoll to support the ios notifications (without app).
Thank you! Best regards Casy.

Hi . If you use erics “ universal launcher “ the raise screen works perfect . You must disable on watch settings but activate in launcher settings .

Wiiwatch app2 not fully working yet with iphone ( unless someone else disagrees ? ). When it does work you get dozens of uncontrolable notifications

thanks for the launcher hint.


wow had not notice the misspelling...I. just have a prototype too.

So there is still a mystery about the speaker port …

No. It's been answered several times before. Splen would you please confirm?

Correct, it's a known issue and is being worked on. As I have said before - Android 7 and all its security features are a real challenge for these devices. But I can tell you that it will be fixed.

This is very possible. I always advise people to wait a little while when a really new product is released.

It’s very common for the vendors to send out very early release watches which really are not quite up to being released as production stock. Generally due to massive pressure to satisfy customer demand/pressure.

Sadly it means that early adopters see improved product hit the market within a few weeks of their purchase.

5m bluetooth! Wow, I can’t reach more than 30cm without drops

Could you please tell me what model do you have? (the model with the misspelling “SMATR WATCH” on the back or another)

And, with what bt audio device?

Thanks

@rodricels: owner of a „smatr watch“ and using old sony ericsson mw600 and it works also at a distance of 10 meters.

From my I4Air. Its the "Send" icon on the upper right. I speak out my reply and after the script appears in the area to the left of the icon and I hit send. It works really well. Or for quick pre programmed answers you can use the quick reply function.

To follow up when I was initially thinking about purchasing one of these watches on BangGood I noticed their listing was just taking pre-orders. It also listed the date “they” would receive the watches for shipment as the 25th of May. So I as read it, production watches would not be available for shipment before that date. I decided to wait and see how the watch fared in early reviews. I don’t think the Lem 7 has lived up to its expectations and for the price I have decided not to purchase this watch and wait to see what else is coming with the A7 watches.

This was the same situation when I ordered my I4Air, pre-order. I waited about 2 weeks after ordering before receiving their shipping confirmation. The advantage is you save a few $$$ by ordering this way but take some risk. In the case of the I4Air it was just an upgrade of the  I4 Pro to include a camera, so I knew what I was getting, in the watch and had no concern.

Update: I noticed this morning that BangGood no longer shows pre-orders for the Lem 7 and appears they now have the “production” models available for immediate shipment at $146 US.

A very sensible approach :+1:

Not sure if you noticed but the Zeblaze Thor 4, which is reported to be the same basic watch, in a different style case, has the speaker port located, on the front side of the watch at the bottom.

If your Watch Droid app does not have the send icon associated with the app my guess is you are running an older version that did not have these functions. If I remember right they were added with the last major update. I am running version 6.7.

Please do not post requests for firmware to be dumped out here. We have the official firmware but it is not yet for public release.
If you are interested in the watch that’s cool, but having the firmware will not make any difference to that decision…

The Bluetooth issue is a known problem with IOS mobile phones. Android phones are working fine.
We are working on a solution for the iPhone and a firmware update is coming.

Please allow a little time to fix these problems. This firmware has a few known problems and it is going to be updated.

Cheers

Pablo
