Summary
Nutrition label
47% Informative
Casio's WS-B1000 is a lightweight wristwatch with some basic smarts, retro styling, and a few different color options.
It's no optical heart rate monitor or fancy-schmancy OLED display, though it does boast an onboard accelerometer for tracking your steps.
For someone like me who’s burnt out on push notifications and rarely tracks anything beyond steps, a cheap tracker with some Y2K vibes is a welcome reprieve.
