No more updates. Limited supports. This watch is a no go.
I haven't had the watch for 30 days yet so I can't say if it can last that long, but from my limited time with it, I cannot recommend this product. The watch overall looks/feels great and notification tends to work 90% of the time, but that is actually where it stops. I have had the pleasure of using the watch with an iPhone and that was where all the trouble started. The app for ios is completely outdated. The watch no longer does weather forecast since they were bought out by FitBit. No offense to FitBit at all, but it seems like after they were bought out, there are no longer any updates to this watch or the app at all. The watch gets steps intermittently correct. The bluetooth is just awful. SInce I've had the product, the bluetooth has been connected about 50% of the time even when the phone is literally touching it. This was going to be such a great product and I had such high hopes for it, but I think after no more updates, I cannot seem to recommend this product at all considering it is all downhill from here.P.S. Customer service still works and they respond fairly quickly (24-48hr), but they will give you the "Thanks for contacting us" and "We are sorry to inform you." I got a lot of the latter because I ask about the functions of the watch that was advertised, but most of them no longer are supported. Please look elsewhere. This is not the watch you are looking for.

Notifications, Music Control, and some Customization for Windows Phone
The media could not be loaded. After some initial difficulty with the Windows Phone (10) Vector Watch App (version 1.7.1), I finally found that by swiping the text at the very top of the app -- where it says "Watch Maker" on the default start page -- only then will it scroll to the other screens for "Store", "Activity", and more importantly "Settings". In the settings section of the app, there are options to change 12/24 hour time as well as Metric/Imperial Units. So that solved my biggest concern for use, and I'm now rather pleased with the watch.I have a Windows 10 phone (Lumia 950), and the app could use minor improvement (as most apps on Windows could), but it does seem to get the job done. I was stuck for a while trying to figure out how to just change basic settings (like 12/24 hour time and metric/imperial units) until I looked it up online. The screenshots of the app on other platforms show that it should have a menu on the bottom, but the Windows 10 version is missing this UI feature. That was initially frustrating. However, after seeing another review for the watch on Windows Central, I noticed a screenshot of the Windows app showing partial text for "Sto..." at top right, which led me to believe I needed to somehow swipe to access the other sections of that app. With that revelation, I was then able to access the complete functionality of the app -- and therefore the watch. It's much better with more apps, streams, and settings! :)Before the Vector watch I had a Microsoft Band 2. I became used to the having the notification from my phone on my wrist, which I liked. However, I only had that watch 1 year until the rubber band started to crack. So I was looking for a smartwatch replacement that worked with Windows Phone. (I didn't mind the lack of fitness sensors, GPS, UV, heartrate, etc -- thinking that only having to charge once a month would be rather liberating.) I've only had a couple days now, and it's at 88% -- so I would suspect it should easily last weeks on a full charge. So that's cool for a smart watch that's always-on.The notifications seem to work pretty good so far. Sometimes I've noticed a several second delay between receiving on the phone and then seeing on the watch, but that's not a major issue. Also, I found the music controls will work, but only if I start music on the phone first, and then the artist and song appear on the Music app on the watch, and I can pause (middle button) and adjust volume (top/bottom buttons). So that reminds me of the Band, but is perhaps more tactile using physical buttons rather than swiping on a touch screen.

NO Customer Service
No customer support. After 3 months the display developed some defects and I provided all the extensive details, pictures, copy of the warranty, etc that was requested and then no further response other than "we will get back to you." That was a month ago.Great watch and great idea but you got to back it up.

READ my Update... Fitbit bought Vector, dropped support altogether
Beautiful watch...questionable Windows 10 Mobile support.The Windows 10 Mobile app works with Build 1607...not perfectly, but it does. If you are on any insider builds, hoping that by the time OS is released, Vector will be ready...you are mistaken. After going back and forth with Vector, I have found that they are not prepared for the upcoming Creators Build. Because they only work with released OS versions. Which means, we will be waiting even longer for the next update to Vector Watch app, when the Windows 10 Mobile Creators Edition is released to public. That's when Vector will start working.For now. The existing app works for everything, except for the issue of intermittent text/skype messages. Email notifications have been working okay. WatchFaces have been fun.UPDATE: Bad news. Since Vector is now owned by Fitbit, VectorWatch app will not be updated anymore. They will only honor hardware replacements for the warranty period, and that's it. What a shame. I never got a chance to use it properly. My purchase timings couldn't have been worse.UPDATE 4/21/2018: So, sometime last year, Vector/Fitbit released a W10M version of the app and it has been good. Even though no new apps or streams are being added, I've still been using the watch daily, for months now. All notifications work now, with W10M (which itself is dead btw). But I'm still using them both cause in their current state they are still working fine.The watch is obviously gorgeous. And Watchfaces are still being added to the store by developers. Since Notifications (Email, SMS, WhatsApp, Calendar, etc.), Pedometer, Music controls (pause/play, skip, volume), Calendar appointments (View/Dismiss), Timer, Alarm, Sleep monitor, Running/Jogging app, etc still work. I'm still using it happily.

Good looking and practical alternative to Microsoft Band.
When my second Microsoft Band had to be returned because the battery failed, and as I discovered that the supply of this product had dried up, I was forced to look for an alternative to use with my beloved Microsoft Lumia 950 Dual Sim. After a short research effort I found this “smart watch”; one of the few compatible with Windows Phone 10.The watch arrived in a high quality box and, after unboxing, I charged it through the magnetic USB cable (located in the small separate enclosure under the watch) in less than two hours.Meanwhile I downloaded the vector app from the Windows store. When the watch was fully charged I attempted to run the app to connect my 950 to the watch. The first problem was creating a Vector account. For me this repeatedly failed until I used a password which contained a capital letter, a number and a symbol. Unfortunately the app still would not run properly until I went to the settings in my 950. I opened “system”, “battery” and “battery usage by app”. I then tapped the Vector Watch (W10) icon and make sure that the app was “always allowed in background”. After this the app ran smoothly.The app opens on the “watchmaker” screen and at first I was confused as I could see no way to open “store”, “activity” or “settings”. I emailed Victor support who promptly told me that I should swipe the “Watchmaker” icon on the top left of the screen.I’ve now used to watch for a few days. On the positive side a number of people have complimented me on the product’s high quality appearance. This never happened when I wore the Band. I have enjoyed customising the watch face and finally settled on about seven different faces and apps which are very easily swiped through using the buttons on the side of the product. The watch has a stable Bluetooth connection so that new notifications appear on the watch after only a short delay. I haven’t missed a phone call or a text since I first put on the watch three days ago. E-mail turns up regularly. The watch battery has drained from 100% to 75% in the same few days.On the downside I have found that the vector app drains the battery on my phone at a rate of about 10% an hour so that I’m obliged to charge the phone each afternoon. This could be a significant problem when I travel. So far I haven’t missed the variety of sensors embedded in my Microsoft Band but I’m not an active person. Others may miss the heart rate monitor, GPS and altitude sensor.
