The watch features Bluetooth technology for energy saving during data transfer, with the press of a button. The watch can connect wirelessly to a smartphone via Bluetooth, allowing access to a wide range of functions.
An integrated sensor measures the local air pressure and displays it on the screen. This can be useful, for example, during hiking, for early recognition of weather trends.
A direction sensor measures magnetic north and displays north on the watch, as well as the direction in which you are currently moving.
The training calendar stores the number of steps, calorie consumption, as well as distances and lap times, and helps in comparing training units.

I won't go into details.. anyone who is a fan of G-Shock and wants a smartwatch should get it without hesitation. I've had it for a year, it has never bothered me while sleeping, the Casio app keeps improving, and the measurements seem okay.
I give it 4⭐️ and not 5⭐️ because sometimes it disconnects from the mobile (iPhone 15 pro max). Otherwise, it is awesome, worth every penny and more. All its measurements are accurate with very minimal to no deviation!
I must say that I am a fan of G-Shock and Protrek. It is a very good watch, very lightweight and comfortable on the wrist, nice buttons. I also like that the screen and main menu have large letters (I have presbyopia at 1.70).
But the mobile application needs improvement. It doesn't always synchronize on my Samsung A71, and I can't understand why. Also, the information in the app is less compared to, for example, Garmin's app. It is good for more casual athletes.
I believe Casio will fix the app in the near future because they are being criticized internationally as well.

All the positives I mentioned in the previous GBD-H1000 apply (see HERE: https://www.skroutz.gr/s/23608944/Casio-GBD-H1000-1A7ER-49mm-%CE%9B%CE%B5%CF%85%CE%BA%CF%8C.html)
and additionally (compared to the previous one):
“+”
More practical menu, as you can navigate the menu with button A (backwards, from the end to the beginning), and not just with D (from the beginning to the end).
Sunrise and sunset, moon phases
Ability (via the app) to set the order in which the functions will appear on the watch, as well as whether you want certain functions to not appear at all in the menu.
Additional sensor (gyroscope) for swimming measurements, as well as for sleep evaluation.
More options for information on the home screen.
Measurements for more sports (beyond running)
Significantly lighter (it is the first GSHOCK that does not have steel on the back) and more compact compared to the previous model. Also, it fits better on the wrist.
The GPS is noticeably faster.
It now also has a pulse oximeter (equally accurate, for a watch, as all its sensors, provided the user instructions are strictly followed).
“ - “
The Casio app is slow and poor, and the connection with the watch is not the best or fastest possible.
It seems that the battery drains slightly faster compared to the GBD-H1000.
P.S. As with almost all watches with plastic parts in their case, it should NOT come into contact with hot water (as stated in the user manual)
Very good build quality, lightweight, accurate measurements, and beautiful! A watch for life (literally due to solar charging), what a great watch you made again, Casio!
