Gadget reviews for the week:
pTron Force X10E
pTron’s new smartwatch Force X10e comes with a massive 1.7” display which is clear and fits a lot of info into it. With a quick setup and sync to Da Fit app, I got going in the first hour itself. The watch provides multiple metrics like 24hr heart rate tracking, blood oxygen levels, breathing guides, sleep monitors, step count and sport tracking. The metrics were all acceptable and consistent for regular usage. The watch also alerts for calls, notifications and goes with a 10-12 day runtime (I got just over 10 days on heavy usage). The X10E is also ergonomic, fits well, looks trendy and well priced. Available in three unique colours. Rs 1,799. ptron.in
Mivi Duopods F40
Mivi’s duopods range provides great options with feature filled TWS for every budget. The F40 sound great, fit well and look good and that’s what matters. Available in 5 eye-catching options, the bass is very good with 13mm drivers built in, calls were reliable and clear, while battery life was about 40 hrs including case.The metallic colours do add shine, with Type C charging on board. BT 5.1 connects seamlessly and is great for gaming and movies with zero lag. Rs 1,199. mivi.in
PlayGO Budslite
BudsLite come with a comfortable in-ear design and EBEL drivers for extra bass. They are also IPX 4 resistant and supremely at home whether in the gym or going for a run. Audio quality is decent, with touch controls providing access to controls and voice assistants. A single charge lasted me about 4.5 hrs with about a day’s charge including case.
