Seiko STMX1 Clip On Tuner/Metronome Tuner Review

I expected much more for a tuner at this price.
PROS:
It's very rigid and doesn't vibrate like other tuners I've used. With other tuners you have to remove the tuner when you are playing because it vibrates, making a little bit of noise. This one is very stable and doesn't vibrate so you can leave it in position while playing.
CONS:
Back light is not automatic as in other tuners. You can tune just with the leds in the dark, but if the guitar is way out of tune or not using the usual tuning you want to check the notes displayed in the screen.
Buttons are small and ugly.
One of the worst: In metronome mode, you can increase the tempo, but you cannot decrease it!!! You have to go all the way up to 250 bpm and it starts again in 30 bpm... if you want to decrease tempo 1 bpm you have to go all the way up and up again from 30 bpm. It has 7 buttons!! Why in the world they didn't assigned one button to go down in tempo.
The volume of the metronome is not very loud. I would have prefered a louder metronome.
The tuning is not very stable, i don't know if it's because it's too sensitive, but that's not practical...sometimes there is too much variation with a very small change in tuning.
Also usually tuners have some trouble recognizing E (6th string) and recognize it as B because it's a strong harmonic. But with this one, sometimes it recognizes E (1st string) as A, which it's very weird.
I'm not returning it just because I live outside USA and shipping would be very expensive.
