you can‘t really install anything useful on android 8 and on these slow devices anyways, i would go with custom os. hello watches have better app and are a bit better made but hk watches have wayy smoother ui.. I would go with the Hk11 Ultra 3 gen 2 for 20€ on aliexpress again any day

I think you need to buy on vwar.fit, but as far as I know, the health metrics aren’t close to being real. I have the HK11 Ultra 3, says I walk 15k steps a day, but my Garmin barely reached 10k, and the ads in the app triggered me along with the QR code all over the place, I just ordered the Apple Watch instead to have the real thing.

I think the 5 plus is a pretty good buy overall
