The IT Nerd

Today I am reviewing the Otofly Apple Watch Magnetic Buckle Silicone Band which is the latest in a number of Apple Watch bands that Otofly sent me to review.

Now this looks like a typical silicone band. But it has a cool trick.

It has a magnetic folding clasp that holds everything together. It snaps together and my attempts to get it to pop open via shaking my arm failed miserably. I also took it on a 42K bike ride and had no issues with it staying on my wrist. However, I did once get the clasp to pop open by having the buckle hook on the edge of a TV that I was installing. I am guessing that this is due to the fact that the clasp is a bit thick which makes it likely to catch on something. But that situation should be an edge case. Pardon the pun.

You can adjust the size of the band using this clasp. And my testing, it didn’t come loose. Thus the use case for this band could be for everyday wear. Seeing as it comes in 15 colours, you can likely find a colour that works for you. And while wearing it, it felt comfortable on my wrist. Even while sleeping.

The Otofly Apple Watch Magnetic Buckle Silicone Band goes for $29.99 and it’s one of those bands that is totally worth looking at if you’re in the market for an Apple Watch band that is a bit different than what’s out there.
