Watch 5 Lite, 1.96" Amoled, Advanced in-Built GPS, 5 ATM, 18 Day Battery, Bluetooth Calling with AI Noise Reduction, Always on Display, Black

Have used Fitbit versa, Samsung Active 2 earlier (both over 20k) this watch at 3.4K is a killer! Provides accurate results, doesn’t count steps when you are in your car or doesn’t have unnecessary features. The customization options on DND and flip to activate is what amazed me and even the ultra power saver mode that saves your battery like a charm. The call quality is great, and screen resolution is unmatched. The watch has an inbuilt GPS that provides you great accuracy in data, also HR monitor. The notifications provide you the option to filter using the app which ones you wish to get. Also, the strap quality is as good as my Samsung watch. What I liked the most is excellent battery backup. I have used it with all the features on, for one week with a single charge. If you put on DND and keep Bluetooth off, I’m sure 15 days it would surely last. Cons: the speaker for calling is placed below the watch that makes it inaudible if you have tied it tightly. Should have been better. The app says you may monitor your BP with the watch but watch doesn’t have such feature (may be they should remove it) Should provide a screen guard along, hard to find one in the market. It’s ok if they charge more or at least provide such option to buy along. Should have been provided an option to customise the physical button for actions. Overall, I recently used boat watches also which clearly lack in terms of accuracy and battery both. Hence this one is a clear winner. Updating this review after over a month’s extensive usage: Activity tracking: works like a charm, automatically detects your walk or cycling and notifies you, and the GPS tracker works like a charm, showing entire trail of your walk or cycling. The Hearteate monitoring accuracy is good too though it really doesn’t monitor it continuously in real time. The watch also has a flashlight mode which works really well. The app and interface is seamless so far and charge lasts over a week with always on display turned on. Never had any sort of charging anxiety as such. My wife uses a 50k worth garmin watch, and believe me it lacks some features that this watch provides. The camera feature is very useful for selfies.

The watch stands out with its attractive design and impressive display quality. GPS performance is reliable; however, it lacks navigation features, which is a noticeable drawback. Unfortunately, Alexa has not been functioning since day one. I’ve already escalated the issue with the service center and am awaiting their response. Battery backup is decent and should comfortably last through regular usage. Watch faces are good enough. Step tracking is good, and integration with third-party apps works fairly well. However, I did not find any option to sync with Google Fit. Additionally, sleep data does not sync with apps like “Sleep as Android Unlock,” which limits its usefulness for detailed sleep tracking. Overall, it is a value-for-money watch considering its price. I will provide an update once I receive a resolution regarding the Alexa issue from the service center.

Good quality

Best watch, looks very beautiful and cool, shine is such, everyone looks atleast one time. Display is big and beautiful. Battery life average, because of AOD. Lots of accessories available in market.

1. No Auto-Lock Feature: The watch lacks an auto-lock feature, such as unlocking by holding the side button. This is problematic in situations involving water (showering, washing hands, or rain), leading to accidental touch issues. 2. Missing Auto-Brightness: At this price point, an auto-brightness feature is expected. Its absence impacts battery life, as brightness cannot adjust automatically to ambient light. 3. No Compass or Water Reminder: Basic features like a compass and water reminder are missing, which are typically standard in smartwatches at this price. 4. Inaccurate GPS: The GPS accuracy is subpar, affecting activity tracking. 5. Software Bugs: Step counter issues: After completing 3260 steps yesterday, the stats failed to reset after midnight, showing yesterday’s data incorrectly. (As you can see in the image). Sleep tracking: The watch inaccurately recorded a nap while I was awake and moving regularly. Each time you make or receive a call, the volume automatically resets to the minimum. You have to manually increase it after every call, and there is no option to permanently set it to the maximum. Additionally, Xiaomi's app only provides a basic breath quality score, whereas Amazfit offers more detailed information. In Amazfit, I found insights like how many times I experienced poor breath quality along with the specific times. Xiaomi's app needs to offer more detailed data and insights for a better user experience. 6. Google Calendar Sync Limitations: The watch only syncs events from Google Calendar but does not sync tasks, limiting its productivity functionality. Given these issues, the watch does not meet expectations at this price. The software is particularly disappointing. In comparison, Amazfit provided much more accurate tracking and better app data. I used Amazfit for 2 years, but due to a display issue, I decided to buy a new one and wanted to experience the Hyper OS ecosystem. Being a Xiaomi phone user, I expected more from their smartwatch, but the experience has been underwhelming. I hope future updates address the bugs and improve feature accuracy. In Amazfit, the Zepp OS provides additional features like app installations, which add value. However, I don't see any unique features in Xiaomi's Hyper OS. It feels as simple as what you’d find in other smartwatches in the ₹1,000-₹2,000 range like Fastrack, Fire-Bolt, Noise, Boat, or similar brands. There’s nothing special or any additional features like the ones Zepp OS offers. Xiaomi's Hyper OS seems more like hype than actual innovation. It also lacks animated watch faces, which are common in other smartwatches. They really need to improve several aspects. After 9 months of usage speaker stopped working.

Good product & features.

Writing this review almost after a full years use. It's decent at max for tracking, I mainly bought it for using GPS while running and swimming. It mostly does the job. But not even a full year apart the battery suddenly has started Lasting less than 24 hours . The auto detection works 5 /10 times. If we start the workout ourselves than fine , but there is no free workout mode , which combines cardio and gym workout. And the strap is broken too . 3.5 k for a year ... doesn't make sense to me , now what should I even do with it . Daily charging is problem. And there are scratches all over , since starting, screen is not very sturdy that way. And there no buyback option also for suchbudget gadgets. I persoal take is it GPS is not a requirement, go for the watch move , it is much better looks wise and does all the things same.

Very snappy and optimizerd UI, gives accurate Sleep duration, Compatible with Android and IOS, great integration with google fit, strava, zepp life, bright display, and accurate tracking. It tracks steps very accurately, and shows great accuracy at HR and SpO2 tracking. It might me not able to catch sudden spikes in HR change during intense workout but usually performs great till 160 HR. Shows stress level really well, and has in-built GPS. The only issue it has is that the alexa feature in it doesn't works.
