Sporty smartwatch

Let me share with you upfront, my discovery about the Playfit SW 75 smartwatch: from a distance and from most angles, it will deceive others into thinking you are wearing the latest Apple Watch, which costs approximately 15 times as much. Deliberate or happenstance? No guesses!

A lightweight 38gram body that belies its chunky 1.3-inch rectangular stainless steel encased touch display, the SW 75 goes where few have ventured when it comes to tracking your physical activities. There are no less than 14 customizable sports activities: from walking, running and cycling to hiking and workouts to games like basketball, tennis and badminton. It is also waterproof up to 50 metres depth.

In keeping with current demand, the watch can be set through the Playfit app to continuously monitor the user's heart rate. Another software feature that women might appreciate is the ability to manage ovulation and menstrual cycles -- important if you are into vigorous physical activity. The polyurethane strap is comfy fit and the 210 mAh battery is good for a fortnight or so. Other useful features: a 'Do Not Disturb' setting and a 'Find My Phone' tool. A good deal at Rs 2999.
