If you are someone who is willing to spend up to Rs 15,000 for a smartwatch, you can check out some of the wearables mentioned below.
The benefit of investing in a premium watch is that you get detailed data and more sensors than the budget ones for better health assessment. We have listed some of the best smartwatches under Rs 15,000 that you can consider buying.
Best smartwatches to buy in India under Rs 15,000
Fitbit Versa 2
Fitbit is a well-known brand when it comes to fitness apparel. You can consider buying the Fitbit Versa 2. It has a lightweight design with a square dial. So you will have no problem wearing it all day. You also get health tracking features like always-on heart rate monitoring, sleep, step tracking and more. You can expect fairly accurate readings and detailed data with Fitbit watches. One can also stream music using Spotify on this watch and also control Amazon Echo devices. It even has a waterproof design as well as a microphone, so you can also take or reject calls using the watch. The company claims that this device can deliver over five days of battery life with regular use.
All this does not mean that it is a perfect watch. One of the biggest drawbacks of this smartwatch is that it does not support GPS and relies on a phone for GPS tracking. This basically means you’ll have to carry your phone when you go for a run (for distance tracking). While its successor Fitbit Versa 3 is already available in the market, you should buy the Versa 2 as this one is cheaper and still has enough features with an attractive design. The Versa 3 will cost you Rs 17,499, while the Fitbit Versa 2 will cost you Rs 13,799.
