Can you get a stylish smartwatch for under two hundred without compromising quality? You can now.
Though your friendly neighbourhood T3 team loves smartwatches as much as the next person who owns a smartwatch, they’re still in the ‘nice to have’ category rather than ‘essential’. That means a lot of people are sceptical of dropping several hundred pounds on one,but the new watch from Mobvoi makes it more tempting to dive in.
Cheap and chipful
The C2 is a full smartwatch, featuring Google’s Wear OS and a Snapdragon Wear chip for its brains, but it starts at just £179. That’s about £100 less than the Samsung Galaxy Watch or Apple Watch Series 3, and a full £230 cheaper than the Series 4. The Huawei Watch GT is around the same price, but it has stripped-back software with no support for installing new apps. Here, you get the full experience for the price.
Of course, corners have to be cut to get things to a lower bracket, but Mobvoi has done a solid job of keeping that non-obvious.
