Atongm W009 Smartwatch Review

Nowadays, Smartwatches are for most part of the world and growing very fast. Smartwatches either a luxury gadget or something that a gadget freak would want to possess and try many different things out just for the kick. Even companies like Apple have taken a while to release it and we have seen others like Moto 360, LG Watch and Huawei going the luxurious way, all of them trying to experiment in their own way and tasting some success in their right.

In The Box:

The Atongm box pack contains the watch (available in different colours – We got the white one), user guide and data cable.

Design and Display:

The build quality and finishing is very good and the design gives it a very premium look. Yes it does look like the Apple iWatch, but features are not exactly the same. Atongm W009 weight is 64 grams with battery and is 10.10 mm thick.

The watch body is made of stainless steel surrounding the almost black screen. The watch strap is white color that matches up with the watch body. The strap is made of Silicone a good quality rubber.

There is no SIM and Micro SD card slot, the 3.5mm audio jack is also missing. Micro USB port is on the left along and power button on the right. No volume rockers in this watch. Speaker is placed just above the Micro USB port on the left side.

The battery comes built in, there is no way to open up the back cover all covered by stainless steel.

Touch screen is 1.44 inches with 128 x 128 pixels resolution. Screen is scratch resistant to a very small extent. This Smartwatch screen will not auto switch on when you twist your arm – you will need to do it by pressing the power button. Alerts are via ringtones and vibrations. Touch is smooth / responsive and viewing are also good. Screen is visible under sunlight when set to maximum brightness.

Storage:

This Smartwatch internal memory is 32MB which is much more less. This smartwatch come with 32MB Ram. You can connect the watch to the Desktop/Laptop only for charging.

Performance:

The W009 watch is using the MTK6260 processor. The performance is good and smooth. The speaker volume is decent – Ringtones are loud but the in-call sound via the same speaker is a pretty low. The in-call sound is hardly audible in noisy conditions but performs well in silent room or in a car. In noisy environments you might want to bring the speaker closer to your ear.

You will need to pair the watch with your smartphone and also install the Atongm W009 app.

Entertainment:

There is built in storage of 32MB. So, just forget about storing anything in this watch. You can play MP3 via built-in speaker by connecting with your smartphone.

Others:

There is Pedometer to track you fitness activities, sleep monitor, anti lost feature (watch will ring and vibrate when smartphone is out of Bluetooth range), Multi Time Zone, Music player and push notifications. It can control your smart phone to take photos after installing apk,

Battery:

The battery comes with 320mAh capacity. The battery backup is okay. If you are using too many notifications then the battery will drain faster. I disabled all notifications except for SMS’s, calls and Whatsapp that way We got better battery backup. If you are continuously using the watch with screen on the battery will drain in less than 3 to 4 hours. With normal usage you can expect up to a day of battery backup. The Smartwatch can be fully charged in under 2 hours.

Verdict:

The Atongm W009 smartwatch can make and receive calls from the watch itself, without having to access your smartphones. This works best when you are busy and want to avoid distractions e.g. while driving. You can also easily access the contents on the watch. This W009 watch supports multiple languages.

It is a good watch for the price of $38.24 (approx. Rs.2500) available from GearBest.com. Shipping and Customs Charges may apply (Worldwide shipping is available). If you not interested in this smartwatch then at Gearbest you can get more smartwatches like this.
