Would be impressive if this product wasn't being sold as a watch. It's nice to imagine "a watch that can do all this stuff", but for me a defining factor of a watch is something I don't have to worry about recharging (or replacing the battery of).
I remember when you would forget a watch in a closet for 3 years and it would still be running when you took it out again.
This is a truly atrocious battery life for a watch. If it cannot even last the length of a vacation or a camp in some situation, what good is it as a watch? At least with a old fashioned Wind-up watch you can recharge it in seconds anywhere.
If A 747 was being sold as a smart car then that would be a valid analogy. However it isn't because people realise that would be moronic, just like selling a watch that sucks at actually being a watch.
