The Trausi smart watch has been discounted for Amazon shoppers, who praised the gadget, calling it 'stylish and functional'
Amazon shoppers can save over £100 on a "stylish and functional" smartwatch that's "perfect for fitness tracking." The TRAUSI Smart Watch has been discounted from £129.99 to £19.99, offering 85% off the original price. Amazon's offer comes as shoppers look forward to Prime Day 2025, which runs from July 8 to 11 and includes deals on various products.
The unisex gadget features 120 sports modes and advanced health tracking. The product description for the watch explains: "Our TG08 smart watches for women men come equipped with 120 sports modes, allowing you to effortlessly track a variety of activities such as walking, running, cycling, and swimming.
"With integrated heart rate and sleep monitors, you can maintain a comprehensive overview of your health, achieve your fitness goals, and maintain a balanced, active lifestyle with ease. Your ideal wellness companion."
The description adds that the watch has a 1.83-inch IPS display and an IP67 waterproof battery, which offers 5-7 days of active use and up to 30 days in standby mode. It says the smartwatch is compatible with iPhone (iOS 9.0+) and Android (5.0+).
For shoppers looking for more options, Argos offers the Reflex Active Black Strap Calling Smart Watch for £24.99. Elsewhere, Selfridges offers the Samsung Galaxy Fit3 smart watch for £59, and Next offers the Sekonda 45mm Active Plus Smart Watch in Silicone Strap for £100.
The TRAUSI Smart Watch is popular with reviewers, earning a five-star review score. Pleased shoppers suggested the watch is "great value for money," praising the design and functionality.
However, one shopper said they would have preferred a different charging port, and another said they wished it included blood pressure monitoring, though they were happy with the other features.
Praising the watch, one reviewer said: "I love the colour and the look of this smartwatch, it's lightweight and comfortable to wear. Would make a great present too!
"It has a lot of features, like daily activities, workout, making and receiving calls, listening to music, checking the weather, tracking sleep, heart rate, blood oxygen, and more. Touchscreen is easy to navigate, the battery life is decent and it's great value for money. Big plus for being water resistant."
Someone else agreed: "Stylish and functional, the TRAUSI Smartwatch impresses with its crisp 1.83" display and 120 sports modes—perfect for fitness tracking. Bluetooth calling and music control work smoothly with both iPhone and Android. It monitors heart rate and sleep accurately, and the IP67 waterproof rating is ideal for daily wear. A great value smartwatch that balances features and design effortlessly."
Elsewhere, a shopper suggested the watch might not be ideal for keen swimmers, writing: "This is an excellent watch for the money. It does all the things you need it to do. The battery life is good too. The instructions provided are clear and if you follow them, the watch will connect to the app easily.
"It does say it's water resistant, but not for prolonged use, so I won't use for swimming, just in case. It's comfortable to wear and looks the part. If you're looking for a smart watch for steps, heart rate and basic messaging, then you really can't go wrong."
Another commenter shared a suggestion, adding: "I'm impressed! The quality for this price point is amazing! Pretty simple to set up. It seems like it should be much more expensive. The only thing I would change is the charger. It should be a type c so that it is the same charger as all of my other devices."
Nonetheless, the watch received lots of praise. A different shopper replied: "This watch is amazing! It's a great way to keep up with your steps as you walk, it also monitors your heart rate and your sleeping schedule. It comes with a charger. It also can take calls and you can check messages. This watch is a great gift for anyone! I absolutely love mine! It was worth the money! It fits my wrist perfectly and I don't even realize that I'm wearing it!"
Someone else said they'd like to see more features included, but they're happy with what is offered. The response read: "I have another smart health tracker, but I prefer this one. The size of the watch face is comparable to higher-end trackers, and the app offers multiple background options to choose from.
"The results are easy to understand and seem to be quite accurate. I do wish it had blood pressure monitoring, but I'm satisfied with the other features, especially the sleep tracking, which I find very interesting. It also includes alarm and notification options, as well as a weight and water intake tracker, among other features. The band is sturdy and has an attractive design. Given its reasonable price, it offers quite a few valuable functions."
