Design

The Urban Pro smartwatch appears to be an attractive and stylish watch, it does not look like regular smartwatch, and the design is quite unique. It does not feel very heavy when you wear but can get difficult to handle when you wear it for too long. The big dial of the watch kind of give you the feel of traditional wrist watches. You can wear it for your work hours as well as when you are exercising, in both cases the watch appears to be perfect. The appearance of the watch gets a thumps up for sure!

Performance

The smartwatch at first will confuse you on how to use it, but after giving it sometime the complexity will go away. If we talk about the performance of the watch, it is quite good. The battery life of the watch is particularly good it takes about 90 minutes to charge fully and can give you a good run for approximately 3 days.

The company claims that on a single full charge it can stay on standby for 30 days. The watch is very fast, smooth and stable to use because of the equipped Japanese Seiko PCB Protection chip.

The smartwatch also comes with a full touch TFT LCD Screen with 240x240 resolutions and full-touch sensors respectively through which every information about one’s daily health and fitness activities can be tracked and accessed through the device or the app.

The device also comes with 7 sports and training modes which are handy while playing basketball,

football, badminton or doing regular activities such as running, cycling, walking, etc. Furthermore, one can even access their Social Media and Smartphone notifications via these Smartwatches.

The smartwatch comes equipped with 7 sports mode, and all of them are great in use, the watch tracks your steps counts accurately and also gives you a heads up by tracking your heart rate while you are using any sports mode, like walking, running or cycling. Which is great because this is something that not a lot watches do in this same price segment.

The watch also stores all your data if you are connected it with your device and gives a full report about your activity.

If we talk about the sleep track, it was a little hit and miss, if you are using the watch for an entire day and not using it while you are sleeping it still gives you a headcount of number of hours you were asleep, which is actually the number of hours you did not actually used the watch. But when you do wear it while sleeping it gives you a fair performance on your sleeping track.

There is also a very good feature in watch called sports record, it gives you an overall review of your entire day’s activity for which you don’t have to open any app, which is cool. Apart from that the watch also tracks your Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, and the Oxygen Level, just like other traditional smartwatches.

You can also control your music with the smartwatch, no high end features in this one just the information and changing the tracks, which is okay!

You can also access your social media while you are exercising or on a go. The smartwatch is also IP67 certified and sweat proof.

Conclusion

It looks stylish and good for a long run. The performance of the watch is fair and smooth, no difficulties or rocket science in handling the watch or using it but can get a little disappointing as it hangs as you use it for long hours but that can be overlooked by all the good things.
