The 'easy to use' £24 Amazon smartwatch that is 'much better than Apple'
The Cillso Smart Watch boasts a near-perfect 4.9-star rating on Amazon.
Keeping track of steps, workouts, and sleep has become increasingly important for many of us. With that in mind, having an accurate smart watch is crucial.
Those considering big name brands, like the Apple Watch, can expect to pay a hefty price tag. But there are more budget-friendly options out there to rival these expensive options.
One such product is the Cillso Smart Watch, which is available at a huge knockdown price on Amazon. Normally £129.99, it is enjoying an 82 per cent discount which means it's only £23.99.
At the time of writing, there are five different colourways, with the rose gold and blue options available at an even better discount, coming in at £22.99 and £21.99, respectively.
The Cillso Smart Watch has built in Bluetooth 5.4 for calls, messages, and app notifications, as well as a 1.95-inch touchscreen display, which "offers excellent image quality".
According to Amazon, the battery can last for seven days on just 1.5 hours of charge. And for fitness fans, the tracker has 112 different sports modes and 24/7 health monitoring.
For those considering other options, the Fitpolo Smart Watch is currently £49.99 on Amazon, down a tenner from its RRP. And the retailer is offering a 20 per cent voucher, which would bring the price down to £39.99.
In terms of bigger brands, the Apple Watch SE 2 can be snapped up for £219 on Amazon, while the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 is currently £279 at Argos, its lowest ever price.
The Cillso Smart Watch itself boasts a near-perfect 4.9 rating on Amazon from 135 reviews, with an incredible 96 per cent of them giving five stars.
One person said: "Absolutely great watch, it feels like an Apple Watch. The software is very smooth. It pairs very easily with your phone. I highly recommend this if you're looking for a good smart watch with all the features that you would expect."
Someone else agreed, saying: "It is much better than Apple Watch, which runs out of power after two days at most. This watch has 65 per cent power left after two days of use. It is easy to use and has different languages that can be changed. It is a good choice for a sports watch."
There were very few negative reviews for the watch on Amazon, but some otherwise positive comments did mention the size as potentially being a problem. One person said: "Quite a large watch so probably not for anyone with a tiny wrist."
But the reviews were overwhelmingly positive. Someone else wrote: "Love this smart watch, it's really easy to set up and use. Great value for money does everything an Apple Watch does for a fraction of the price.
"Charges quickly and the battery lasts a long time. It has good quality audio which is really clear and is convenient to get notifications from social media."
And another five-star reviewer added: "Really pleased with this watch. Lovely clear display and many useful features. Easy to use app. Watch is also very good at keeping it's charge. Will be ordering two more for my daughters. Step count is also very accurate and to top it off the watch looks very nice on the arm."
