The Xiaomi sub-brand Poco has today debuted its first smartwatch Poco Watch in the market. It comes with a 1.6-inch AMOLED display with a square design. Xiaomi lacks in the square display watches, and Poco is trying to fill the gap. The sister-company Zepp has Amazfit GTS 2 in this category, and it is quite famous in Europe and India. It passed with an IP68 rating to protect in 50m water, which is suitable for swimming. Poco offers a TPU strap to wear around your wrist.
It counts over 100 workout modes, but it is not an impressive number. The good part is its HIIT exercise modes including running, cycling, walking, yoga, hiking, climbing, and more. As per the official statement, the battery inside Poco Watch is enough to drag it for two weeks on a single charge. The only catch is that you have to use it normally by disabling some features like continuous heart rate tracking or GPS function is ON. With the smart notification, you will not miss your Facebook, Twitter, or WhatsApp notifications.
In the advanced health features, Poco offers blood oxygen monitoring. It lacks ECG, BP, VO2 Max & fall detection functions. For women users, the smartwatch has a period tracker with a calendar and logs. Stress, breathing, sleep & heart rate tracking are all available on the smartwatch. In the European market, Poco Watch goes on sale for $84. There is no official news of launching in the US & India.
