Casio Men Digital Quartz Watch with Plastic Strap DW-H5600-1ER

Product Information

To find what you want in the app, you also have to go digging. The multi-function nature means there’s a lot of information and screens, and it’s not always obvious where things are hidden. There’s a learning curve to it, but once you’ve found the fitness and health data and are used to navigating the app, it’s well-presented and informative. Andy Boxall/Digital Trends Measured total, lap and split times can be stored in a memory with the date and can be displayed again later. A data set consists of: date, total, lap and split times. The memory has enough space for up to 100 data sets. Auto Pause, Auto/Manual Lap, Distance, Speed, Pace, Activity Display Customization, Blood Oxygen Level, Cardio Load Status, Multi-sports, Sleep Measurement The H5600 continues Casio’s partnership with Polar, and the activity brand adds its data expertise to the watch and app’s software. The heart rate sensor’s results mostly match other devices, showing the same average heart rate count during a workout as the Oura Ring, but it can count a higher maximum, which has resulted in a slightly higher calorie burn than the Oura or the Apple Watch Series 8. None match each other exactly, but none are medical devices, so this is expected. Note: While an interval timer is not listed in the Casio specifications, there is an interval timer as part of the fitness functions, with up to five individual timers that can auto-repeat up to 10 times. We also noticed that the GBD-H2000 specifications were changed and do not list the interval timer, although it does have the interval timer function like the DW-H5600.)

You’ll need to use a proprietary charging cable to power it up and I can’t say the clothes peg-style cable is up there with one of my favourite charging cables, which I’ll get into more later. Training Function- Display of distance, speed, pace, and other calculated values based on accelerometer, auto/manual lap times, Auto Pause, target alert setting (time, calories burned) on/off, training display customization (elapsed time, distance, pace,The button tones on the mode button can be switched off for discreet operation. Pre-set alarm or timer functions remain active. Life log: Step count, step count graph (week, month, 6 months), calories burned measurement, active time measurement, Step Reminder Function, Floor Elevation Measurement Compass, Heart Rate Monitor, Pressure (Altimeter and Barometer), Step Counter, Thermometer, Gyroscope, Triple Sensor This isn’t the first Casio and Polar collab and likely won’t be the last, so has the union of an iconic watch with one of the big sports watch players paid off? Here’s my take. Design and screen

Training Analysis- Training status, fitness level trend, training load trend, VO2MAX, recovery time, Wrist Heart Rate Measurement (maximum measurement value: 220 bpm) Heart rate, target heart rate setting, heart rate zone graphic indication, heart rate graph, maximum heart rate, minimum heart rateNotification support needs to be enabled in the companion phone app or the watch settings, where you can choose for those notifications to be displayed on part of the screen or the entire screen – you’ll definitely want to do the latter. For longer notifications you’ll need to press the stiff Mode button to scroll through them.

Daily Alarms: Each will sound every day at the time you set, Hourly time signal: The watch beeps every hour on the hour, Snooze function Housed inside of the pretty sizable bezel is a memory pixel LCD display, which is similar screen technology used by Polar and Garmin on many of their watches. This function shows training status, fitness level and training load as well as regeneration times. This information provides a good basis for planning further training sessions. The watch battery is rechargeable with the included proprietary USB cable or by solar. This is not a “Tough Solar” watch, so it cannot be fully powered by solar if all the functions are used regularly, but the time display can be driven by solar alone. The wired charging time is approximately three hours, and a full charge will last about a week when used for about one hour per day, according to Casio. On a full charge without further solar charging, the watch will run for about 35 hours in activity mode with the heart rate monitor on. In watch mode with the hear rate monitor turned off, the battery life is approximately one month, and with power saving on, it is about 11 months.

Technical amendments and errors excepted. The sizes in figures do not correspond to the original sizes. The activity log measures up to 100 runs up to 200 laps each (with time, distance, pace, calories burned with energy source, heart rate, maximum heart rate, cardio load, pitch, maximum pitch, and stride). The active time measurement uses a special algorithm to determine the type of activity. The life log records step count data, calorie consumption measurement, and active time measurement, and offers a step reminder function and a step count graph with weekly, monthly, and 6-month data. Like other advanced G-SQUAD models with the MIP LCD display, the DW-H5600 has a vibration alert setting.

This means that the watch no longer beeps when switching from one function to another. Preset alarm or countdown timers remain active when the button tones are deactivated.
