The last watch I tried from AliExpress looked great but inside had little in common with the prestigious watch it closely resembled. Even so for the looks alone it proved to be a decent buy when compared to other budget smartwatches.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 is a high quality premium grade smartwatch currently priced at around £230 on Amazon. The AliExpress Smart Watch “For Samsung Galaxy 6”.- which very closely resembles the expensive original - is widely available across AliExpress from multiple sellers at a range of prices. The one I am looking at today is priced at just me just £15.17 including taxes and shipping.
The AliExpress watch has a 1.4 3" 360x 360 display, a stainless steel body and a 300mAh battery with wireless charging. The product page claims a wide range of features including GPS, NFC, notifications, wireless charging, Blood pressure, SP02, sleep and heart rate tracking, Bluetooth calling, music control, camera control, and multiple sports tracking.
In the box are the watch, silicon strap, charging cable and a User Guide in English. The presentation is OK but far from premium grade, the box is low to mid market but attractive enough for the price.
The build quality was not so good as the last AliExpress watch but far from being terrible. The watch body feels reasonably weighty and although it does not feel cheap and throwaway neither does it feel classy or high end. The watch strap is silicone with a simple traditional style metal buckle which again feels mid to low end. So far, as regards the hardware, I think this to be a budget priced watch but from a well known name. Things start to change when looking at the magnetic charger which is lightweight and seems cheaply made The user guide too is not good, being poorly written, badly printed and hard to read.
The magnetic charger works well enough but the magnetic connection is not very strong and it is prone to falling off. I found that I could get about 36 hours of normal use from a full charge.
Turning the watch on for the first time I have to say I was very fairly impressed by the display, which is bright colourful and detailed. The watch paired easily to my phone running the required NewFit app although it identified the watch as being the T5 Pro. The phone link seems pretty stable and I have not yet needed to manually reconnect.
