The Casio G-Shock GBD-200 - A Perfect (Not Too) Smart Watch
The Casio G-Shock GBD-200 just might be the best modern G-Shock yet.
Sure, we all know how great the classic G-Shocks are, but this one adds in some nice modern tech without going overboard.
Come along for an unboxing, try-on, and exploration of features.
And yes... I'm an idiot. It's not daylight savings time right now. Just ignore that part of the video for me, OK?

This has quickly become my favorite g-shock!
The refresh rate on MIP displays is limited to 1hz. So it can't display anything under a second cuz the MIP can't keep up

That would explain it… thanks for the clarity!
I have a Gbd-200 and a Gbx-100. Both great watches and the display is absolutely amazing. Basic interface for any user, the only thing missing is an audible alarm at all hours. 😊

That little “beep-beep” on the hour is charming.

To each their own. I’ve been enjoying this watch even more than I thought I would. Solar would be convenient, but taking the 5 mins to change a battery every 3-5 years is well worth it for me.

How long does the battery last when it's connected to your phone and recieving notifications? @@MikeyTown13

Agree. I’m getting one if it ever goes solar for sure. Love watches that have batteries that can hang in there for 10 years.
would you recommend it as a daily use? is the resin strap really comfortable on the wrist? well some of the reviews says there something in the strap that makes uncomfortable. Thanks in advance 🙂

Yes and yes! I’ve found it very comfortable. I know that wrists come in all shapes and sizes, though, so I can only speak for myself.
Ulasan yang bagus 👍 Bang Mikey, saya juga memiliki jam yang Abang uLas
Do they make a solar powered model with the MIP screen

They do. It’s the DWH5600. That one also has the heart rate/fitness sensor in it and it’s double the price of this one.
13:52 just connect watch to phone by Bluetooth. Time will synchronize then. Btwni have 2noh them: black standart and black stealth with some green add-ons :)

Are you able to connect it for time sync only, or will it also get notifications? Either way, this has become one of my most worn watches. Just so good!
I noticed that the color isn't as bright as it shows on video, good thing you spoke about this. But you say it's available in tons of colors??? is 3 colors tons of colors to you??? You might want to explain that one...

That may be the case. I’ve never actually ordered direct from the Casio website.

It did… and still does! It’s my preferred watch for when I’m doing anything active, and it happens to look great with jeans, so I wear it quite a bit!
What about its battery life in practical?

Only time will tell, but since I don’t have this connected to Bluetooth, I’d expect it to last 3-5 years.

@@MikeyTown13 Casio is behind on technology. The GBD 200, even at that price point, is a good example. No solar.

I get where you’re coming from, but it’s all subjective. Solar is nice, but having to change a cheap battery every 3-5 years on a sub-$200 watch is never going to be a deal breaker for me.
