I agree on the reviewing of your data. This should be integrated into the Casio app. Also, my biggest gripe so far is that you can only save one map offline and you have to do it from the watch itself. On top of that, you can only save one zoom level of that map. There really needs to be a way to save maps on your phone and then transfer via the app to the watch as needed. One other thing it needs is profiles where you can have settings for different situations. Like a "Max Battery" profile that shuts off all the ancillary stuff. It needs a night mode too. It know's what time it is and when the sun sets, it should be able to dim more at night and allow you to set it to automatically do this.
I've contacted the Casio support, asking clearations about saving and storing your activities! they told me that the Activity app records stats, but once you start a new one the old is deleted. But they also told me that I can also record my activity with the Google Fit app, and with this save and store them. now, I'm a little bit confused.. do the Activity and Google Fit app communicate each other the recordings or not? if not (and that should be very annoying) can I run both apps together? hope this helped you! ;)
Hi Eric thanks for the great review, please let us know what's your thoughts on the new WSD-F30 The newly released with OLED screen and better battery management.
I live in Japan and I bought this. the orange one.I was going to buy the Black one,but the Japanese lady there told me that the Orange one will match me. 😄
The Minnesota Dad have asked Nixon via support to see if there is a way to read the raw data from the sensors on the watch but don't believe there is. Maybe Mission II will have this. Oh and the Casio's flat tire design, survey they can engineer that out in 2017.
I have been using their Pro Trek regular versions since 1996. When is Samsung Gear S4 coming out? The one that will replace Frontier? Please do review that. Thank you.
+Opsenforcer yeah, battery life gets me about 7-9 days, depending on usage. I love that I can go away and travel for a few days and not worry about bringing a charger for my watch.
Why oh why the flat tire Casio??? There is more than enough room with those massive bezels to have a fully round screen and the display driver / cable connector (as well as the oft & incorrectly blamed light sensor). It's such a bewildering design flaw that it makes you wonder how the rest of Watch is so cool. Would really like to hear the rationale behind that since it is a deal breaker for so many.
@@chechsp You are correct as with all new things electronic. Better/more advanced = $$$ But you *chechsp* can now buy the ProTrek WSD F20 at a good discount. Now you can smile.
hy Techy!!! Finally a cool video about this smartwatch!!! I'll hope to se muche more from you in the future!!! i have a few questions for you, please take your time to reply because i'm very interested in this watch but i misunderstand some fatures. i've already asked at casio support but maybe some answers from a real user could be better! I see there isn't a speaker, is there an allarm function with a beeep sound or anything else? do you know if are there other cardio bands wich could be paired? what's the difference between "battery priority" and "tracking priority"? while GPS activity is the monochrome display active and the recording still works in background? is it possible to previously load or write routes or import them so that I can follow them? it looks like this device will be more funny than the Fenix 5x (also cheaper) how is your own experience about tracking and mapping with theese 2 devices? can you explain what @Brad Simmons says with this sentence? "Also, my biggest gripe so far is that you can only save one map offline and you have to do it from the watch itself. On top of that, you can only save one zoom level of that map. There really needs to be a way to save maps on your phone and then transfer via the app to the watch as needed." thx a lot for all the infos!!!
+Filippo Goffi There appears to be a small speaker on the side, I forgot to mention this. I do not know of any other cardio bands which will pair with this. Battery priority makes it so that your battery lasts longer but your GPS is not as accurate. Tracking priority Will make your battery die faster but you'll have better GPS accuracy. You can load previously saved routes and import them to the watch using a computer. Compared to the Fénix 5, I prefer the Fénix 5. It's easier to use and has a better experience all around.
the one on the side it's the ABC sensor (I think) for pressure and temperature relevations. I don't need a speaker but just a chime that sounds as in the previous CASIO model when you set the alarm witjh snooze.

Co do WSD-F20- to starszy model!!! Po pierwsze, bateria, wytrzymuje bez użycia systemu GPS około 32h przy połączeniu z telefonem, następnie przechodzi w tryb oszczędny i tylko wyświetlany jest ekran monochromatyczny ( przy naładowaniu baterii na poziomie 11% otrzymujemy pytanie czy zegarek ma włączyć tryb oszczędny)- inne funkcje zostają wstrzymane. Co do nawigacji to sa dwa rozwiązania, natywny oparty o GooglMaps i Mapbox oraz zew. nawigację ViewRange, która jest mało intuicyjna. W ViewRange można tworzyć punkty i trasy na stronie @t lub telefonie (aplikacja na Android) następnie synchronizować telefon i uploadować dane na zegarek. Tylko, że to działa od czasu do czasu, raz na zegarku (przy połączeniu z telefonem) odpala się trasa innym razem nie, ładowanie mapy jest długotrwałe i etapowe, czas działania zegarka spada wtedy do 7h w najlepszym pomiarze, mi przeciętnie zegarek pracował poniżej 6h (włączone funkcje smart i nawigacyjne w tym samym czasie- zegarek nadal powiadamia Cie co się dzieje w sieci i stara się sprostać wyzwaniu w postaci nawigacji) . Dodatkowo prezentacja danych takich jak trasa jest horyzontalne (trasy nie mamy przed sobą), czyli obraz przemieszcza się z lewej strony na prawą na ekranie. Jeszcze gorzej jest z nawigacją oparta o mapy OSM, która nie ładuje map a jak załaduje to po 20 minutach lub dłuższym czasie, następnie jak odpalisz nawigację to okazuje się, że ekran jest mało czytelny, 35% zajmuje system powiadamiania o punktach i czasie dotarcia- całość jest nieczytelna. Brak możliwości tworzenia punktów z możliwością uploadu, brak możliwości tworzenia tras przed wyprawą i uploadu w natywnym rozwiązaniu sprawia, że jedyne co można uzyskać to bieżąc pozycję/ położenie- wiemy na jakiej polance jesteśmy lub ulicy ale gdzie jest baza, gdzie jest hotel to ni cholery nie mamy pojęcia! Jedna funkcja działa, funkcja zapisu bieżącej pozycji z możliwością dobrania ikony (natywne rozwiązanie). Co do funkcji smart to mogę napisać same superlatywy, konfiguracja powiadomień na telefonie pozwala dobrać formę i sposób powiadamiania oraz co ma być wyświetlane, możliwość głosowego odpowiadania na SMS to genialna funkcja, wiesz kto dzwoni, nic co dzieje się w sieci Ci nie umknie, zostaniesz o tym powiadomiony. Dodatkowo masz wiele opcji doboru cyferblatu, czyli co ma i gdzie być wyświetlane, możliwości są ogromne, konfiguracja wręcz nieograniczona. Tylko czy to jest to co chcesz mieć na przykład na wyprawie w Bieszczadach lub w czasie rowerowej wyprawy do Czarnego Stawu w Niepołomickiej Puszczy, czy to jest to co Cię skłoni do zakupu tego urządzenia? Model PRO-TREK zobowiązuje a tu dostajemy smartwatcha z "niedorobionymi" funkcjami nawigacyjnymi, które nadają się na jednodniowe wyprawy do parku poza miasto i do wyprawy po znanej okolicy (bo jak nie odpali mapa to i tak się nie zgubisz)!!! Podsumowując: zegarek zabawka, z bardzo słabymi funkcjami nawigacyjnymi na tle konkurencji z przeciętną baterią i świetnymi funkcjami smart i zachwycającym designem. PRO-TREK w tej formie z "Android Wear" to ślepa uliczka!
No ja nie wiem jak ty ale mnie zegarek trzyma 5 dni. Nie maje go na synchronizację s telefonem. Taky dlaczego. Jak idzie na trekking to uruchomie GPS. Nie maje go wloczene w domu lub w mieście. Jak ludzie nie wiedzą co wszystko jest dobrze a co źle lub jak nastawić zegar to potem jest problem. Dobrze jest poczytać cóż na ten temat. Na Internecie jest dużo ż całego świata jak dobrze ustawić.
A jest jakieś rozwiązanie żeby zobaczyć historię trekingu np, zobaczysz ile ja wczoraj porzeszedklem km i ile godzin to zajęło. Lub sprawdzić kilka treningów wstecz?
I didn't download any offline maps but it did a great job locating me and using whatever onboard maps it already had. The mapping and gps on this is legit.
I like my Garmin Nuvi 255. Updated open source maps, color touch screen satelite time, I don't have to wear it on my wrist and get sweaty, I can just put it in my pocket... and it costs only $10 on ebay! Plus with a microSD card in it, 4gb native + 32gb of storage. About 4hrs battery life when actually on to check your time/location... otherwise, in off mode (normal) will probably hold battery charge... months, years. Plus I don't look like a dork for wearing a watch. Don't follow the crowd like a lemming, think out side the box. :-)
I'm tring to understand how the tracking mode works and I've noticed that once you end the recording you can see the details of this activity (as a notification) but you cannot access to theese informations anymore frome the clock. assuming is impossible to view again your records from the clock. where theese activity are stored and from where can I easily view them and eventually add notificatins, POI or modifing waypoints or adding routes? THX
+Filippo Goffi if you go to Casios FAQ on their website, they give details on how you can export this data (using Google earth and google drive). It one of the major shortcomings of the device, and one of the reasons I greatly prefer the Garmin Fénix 5. Casio makes it a huge hassle to review the data.
thx for the reply!! can I see the tracks from my smartphone?!! I dont understand how the navigation mode and the turn-by-turn indications works.. i'm looking on the FAQ section, but I cannot find it, can you share the link please? when you record a track with the GPS you do it via Viewranger, or it has another app? can I see the tracks from my smartphone? i'm so disappointed about this, I really love this watch but I'm tring to understand if it can do all the things I need. mapping is a wonderfull feature, but it look it works tricky.. I will use the watch most of the time as a smartwatch at work and love the military certification. but in the outdoors i need something reliable (mostly for mtb) that makes me reach a Trail i've made in another day or tells me where other trails are. can Viewrager do all this? Do you think that there will be updates for the Casio preinstalled apps? or any sort of update for this smartwatch? THX again!!
Hi, just wondering how long will the casio wsd f20's battery last for normal daily wear? Recently sold my fenxi 3 hr, considering purchase the fenix 5x or andriod wear smartwatch. My perivious fenix 3 hr can last about a month if do nothing. I hope casio can last more than a week. Thank you.
I agree, I easily get over a day though I usually charge every night just to be safe. There are some other ways to save battery like turning off all the gestures, turn off wifi and even bluetooth.
+Ian McNabb it depends: if you need a fully fledged smart watch, the Casio wins. But in all other regards (battery life, heart rate tracking, health tracking, gps features, etc) the Garmin is better
I've been rocking the Garmin Vivoactive HR for 9 months now, very happy with all the features beyond a smart watch ... I found the smart watch features to be rather annoying after a while, with all the vibrations, started developing phantom vibe sensations not just in the pocket but on the wrist as well, so I prefer all the sports watch features over those ... still very happy with the Vivoactive, only have to charge it every 7-10 days depending on if I use the GPS for hiking once or twice in that period, and very happy with the sports watch features, if I ever up my activity game beyond biking, hiking, and crossfit, I might upgrade the watch
Looks like an awesome time watch a bit out of my price league unfortunately. Great review tho. Just wondering what cheaper heart rate smart watches you might recommend under the 50$ mark? Thanks
+brent lapslie There aren't really any quality watches I would recommend under $50. The Mio Fuse is currently about $70, and it the cheapest wearable with a built in HR sensor that I would recommend.
@@uptone12111 Sorry *Nite Knight* you are not being clear so I have to guess at what watch you bought. But if you picked up any watch on eBay you should *beware.* It could be a copy/fake, stolen, and/or damaged. You probably bought a Casio WSD-F20. Hope you like it's pluses & can live with it minus'. I'll get a Mudmaster or Master of G Casio watch 5 weeks or 6 weeks after New Years from Amazon (Amazon has a great return policy). They should be deeply discounted at that time. Happy Holidays.
+Almog SHtaigmann not that I've seen. You can review the map information on your phone later, but you have to use the workaround that I described in the video
+keystarG60 sorry about the lack of clarity. I’m using the term “ waterproof” in layman’s terms, meaning you can take this swimming and kayaking and you will not have any issues. But it’s not waterproof in the sense that this would be a diving watch, or hold up under high pressure water situations.
For me having to change my watch once a day is just too much of a trade off. I won't lie your fenix5 x looks pretty awesome :) I probably won't upgrade until my fenix3 hr dies tho, man that was an expensive watch.
GLEDAM LEP JE HOĆU DA KUPIM KOJA JE CENA GLEDAM I NE KASIO ANALOGNO DIGITALNE PA SE NREMOGU ODLUČITI KOJA JE CENA OVOG SATA.MOLIO BI NEKAKO VAŠ ODGOVOR.
I dont get this any more with new watches, with touch screens and battery of 1 day.. cos every one got smart phone and it is way better for use cos large screen and large battery.. on watch all you need fast digital info numbers like; clock, date, alarm, barometer, temperature, altitude, moon, tide, compass, flash-light, solar charge battery, id info, small data with codes memory.. watch for me is gadet for simply and fast use(1-2-3 clicks), and not something you pair with phone and then you have to sliding look for gadgets inside watch.. this new smart watches are more like medical gadget to control bio functions
I'm very sorry I bought this model. 1. no sound alarm, sound buttons, reminder. Only vibration. 2. Color displays in daylight are very pale and misty. I made a comparison with garmin fenix 5 x 3. The chain is from nasty material. 4. The battery does not live for 1 month at all. Comparison with Sunto and Garmin. But I can not believe that there is a cassio clock without sounds !!! :(
+Led Strip Studio Bulgaria yes, it's more of a smart watch than anything. The Fenix and Suunto lineups are better options for dedicated sports/outdoor uses

So briefly the cons of this watch are: - Poor battery life - No heart rate sensor - Difficult to have activity data on your smart phone afterwards - Difficult to see the screen under sunlight
It couldn’t have the outdoor person in mind, when your gps drains the battery life. What? No S.O.S. button? What? You can’t make or receive phone calls? What. I don’t have the capability to make Satellite phone calls in an emergency (god forbid if the cell towers go out due to inclement weather? What? No SIM card slot? I mean, come on!... ...This is HUGE-@$$ WATCH! Wheat? No two-way radio capability?
+John Manley Because they consider it an "outdoor gps watch" instead of a "fitness watch" and it definitely impacted their design. That's where the Fénix is a better watch because they wanted it to be both an outdoor watch AND a fitness watch.

Excellent review as always Eric..yes very late!
Has it got a thermometer as well? I haven't seen it in the video...
Have you hooked it to a camera yet? If so which one and software?
Did you try view ranger?
Hi Eric thanks for the great review, please let us know what's your thoughts on the new WSD-F30 The newly released with OLED screen and better battery management.
I live in Japan and I bought this. the orange one.I was going to buy the Black one,but the Japanese lady there told me that the Orange one will match me. 😄
The tool app is great, something my Nixon Mission could do with to make the most of all of those sensors on board!
Peace_Out I agree.
+The Minnesota Dad 👍 yeah, that's why I didn't really feel the need to put it through my typical exercise testing
Peace_Out 👍
The Minnesota Dad have asked Nixon via support to see if there is a way to read the raw data from the sensors on the watch but don't believe there is. Maybe Mission II will have this.
Oh and the Casio's flat tire design, survey they can engineer that out in 2017.
TACHY AGENT,,I have a question about WSD F-20,,can this watch perform a TRACKBACK ACTIVITY like GARMIN FENIX 3 and FENIX 5X?
Do u have to pay for the GPS monthly
I have been using their Pro Trek regular versions since 1996.
When is Samsung Gear S4 coming out? The one that will replace Frontier? Please do review that.
Thank you.
Hey Eric, recently picked up the fenix5x and so far I'm loving it. I'm at 43% day 6 I think that's pretty good
+Opsenforcer yeah, battery life gets me about 7-9 days, depending on usage. I love that I can go away and travel for a few days and not worry about bringing a charger for my watch.

The wait maybe over. Casio ProTrek *WSD F30* is coming out soon. It is much better, especially the battery life.
@@sweetcostarica8714 and because of that I picked up one for 265.00 on Ebay (dont card about hear rate)
@@uptone12111 Sorry *Nite Knight* you are not being clear so I have to guess at what watch you bought.
But if you picked up any watch on eBay you should *beware.* It could be a copy/fake, stolen, and/or damaged.
You probably bought a Casio WSD-F20. Hope you like it's pluses & can live with it minus'.
I'll get a Mudmaster or Master of G Casio watch 5 weeks or 6 weeks after New Years from Amazon (Amazon has a great return policy).
They should be deeply discounted at that time.
Happy Holidays.
does it have weather forecast?
Yes
Can you get ViewRanger on this?
Yes I believe you can get that app on this and it does work with the built-in GPS
Is there a way to see the maps on the phone and not just the watch?
+Almog SHtaigmann not that I've seen. You can review the map information on your phone later, but you have to use the workaround that I described in the video
Techy Agent A little disappointing on a clock so great
I believe Viewranger will do that
Me and my fellow watch collectors were cringing when he said it was waterproof. It certainly isn't. Water resistant perhaps but the difference is huge
+keystarG60 sorry about the lack of clarity. I’m using the term “ waterproof” in layman’s terms, meaning you can take this swimming and kayaking and you will not have any issues. But it’s not waterproof in the sense that this would be a diving watch, or hold up under high pressure water situations.
Of course has the mic but no hr monitor
what is the best fit band for gym?
+joni legta esta muy loca WTF I like the Polar A360, Mio Fuse, and Garmin Vivoactive HR
Techy Agent thx i will check this!
so it sux with an iphone?
Yes, a lot
I guess i will have to buy an outdoor watch and an exercise watch in order to be a high tech person
battery only 25hour, 4 me not great
Guys which phone should I get ????
iPhone 6s.
iPhone 7
+Loganedwards123 321 iPhone 7
Do u have a spare iPhone I can have ?????
I want an android wear watch that only needs charging once a week like the fenix3 hr
+Jay Thomas yeah, that would be ideal
For me having to change my watch once a day is just too much of a trade off. I won't lie your fenix5 x looks pretty awesome :) I probably won't upgrade until my fenix3 hr dies tho, man that was an expensive watch.
Really the forerunner 235 is probably my idea watch at this point, since a lot of the fenix features I don't use a ton.
GLEDAM LEP JE HOĆU DA KUPIM KOJA JE CENA GLEDAM I NE KASIO ANALOGNO DIGITALNE PA SE NREMOGU ODLUČITI KOJA JE CENA OVOG SATA.MOLIO BI NEKAKO VAŠ ODGOVOR.
Where is heart beat sensor?
+Zhu Victor It doesn’t have one
wow
I dont get this any more with new watches, with touch screens and battery of 1 day.. cos every one got smart phone and it is way better for use cos large screen and large battery.. on watch all you need fast digital info numbers like; clock, date, alarm, barometer, temperature, altitude, moon, tide, compass, flash-light, solar charge battery, id info, small data with codes memory.. watch for me is gadet for simply and fast use(1-2-3 clicks), and not something you pair with phone and then you have to sliding look for gadgets inside watch.. this new smart watches are more like medical gadget to control bio functions
I'm very sorry I bought this model.
1. no sound alarm, sound buttons, reminder.
Only vibration.
2. Color displays in daylight are very pale and misty. I made a comparison with garmin fenix 5 x 3. The chain is from nasty material.
4. The battery does not live for 1 month at all. Comparison with Sunto and Garmin.
But I can not believe that there is a cassio clock without sounds !!! :(
+Led Strip Studio Bulgaria yes, it's more of a smart watch than anything. The Fenix and Suunto lineups are better options for dedicated sports/outdoor uses

So briefly the cons of this watch are:
- Poor battery life
- No heart rate sensor
- Difficult to have activity data on your smart phone afterwards
- Difficult to see the screen under sunlight
👍
It couldn’t have the outdoor person in mind, when your gps drains the battery life. What? No S.O.S. button? What? You can’t make or receive phone calls? What. I don’t have the capability to make Satellite phone calls in an emergency (god forbid if the cell towers go out due to inclement weather? What? No SIM card slot? I mean, come on!... ...This is HUGE-@$$ WATCH! Wheat? No two-way radio capability?
Not so good battery and no HR? bad log management? shitty screen? hmmm
i wish you would have compared it to suuntos traverse and spartan tho!
+SaimonVcp I’m getting the Suunto Spartan for review in a couple weeks hopefully
If this had solar charging than it would have destroyed every other smart watches in the market
This casio .they are 2 .model must be careful when you want to buy.
Super bulky looking, no OHR, poor battery life. I don't get it. How can they put out a fitness device without a heart rate monitor?
+John Manley Because they consider it an "outdoor gps watch" instead of a "fitness watch" and it definitely impacted their design. That's where the Fénix is a better watch because they wanted it to be both an outdoor watch AND a fitness watch.
I agree.
John Manley Thank you for clarifying this. It is an outdoor GPS smartwatch, not a multisport fitness watch.
The Minnesota Dad. Its realy annoying if outdoor watch has a display on which you see nothing during outdoor activity
Jacek Ejtaszewski go back to 2:08
i likes but is too masive.
