I bought an Amazfit Neo awhile back for a cheap heart monitor. This is a smartwatch clone of the gshock with a much better value ($30?) and battery life (a month). I then got the real G-Shock gm-5610u for a daily watch and love it. I think Casio does great with non-smartwatch but I don't know who the submission's watch is for other than a collector. It can run for a day and a half on a charge at that price point? Go buy a Garmin.

The Amazfit Neo serves well as a rough estimate for heart rate and give good value for just $30 (currently even just 10€ it seems). But if you e.g. enable the detailed heart rate and sleep measurement the battery life is not more than a week and the quality of the measurement cannot be fully trusted & bigger latency (plus in the app the resolution of heart values is just one value per 5 minute). So it is not that good quality ... still worth the money.

  Maybe some variability with batteries, even with everything on I get around 3 weeks. Agree with the rest of what you said though, it's not a high-end device but I don't really have to care where I bring it for the price point. I think their Bip was a better rounded device but I like physical buttons like the Pebbles had. (Oh and without a phone the Neo's clock drifts multiple seconds per week, vs about a 2 second drift for my F-91W over the course of TWO YEARS.)
