💭 User Impressions
Reddit users often see SKMEI as a good budget “beater” watch with fun features, but warn against expecting high-end durability or performance:
“I have 5 skmeis… accuracy not that great for quartz. Maybe 5 seconds a day off.”
“Their LCDs have poor viewing angles… very legible, but only if you look straight on.”
