The Realme Watch was rumoured for a long time with multiple leaks revealing almost everything about the tech accessory. The watch will take on the likes of the Apple Watch, Fitbit Versa and other watches running on Google’s WearOS platform.
According to a previous leak by XDA-Developers, the Realme Watch will run on a proprietary OS, skipping WearOS which might restrict the availability of apps available on the Google Play Store.
Madhav Sheth was seen wearing the Realme Watch in an #AskMadhav episode, which confirmed the watch will sport a similar rectangular body like the Apple Watch.
According to the big XDA leak, the watch will sport a 1.4-inch TFT LCD display and a 160mAh battery with claimed 7-day battery life. The watch will also be IP68 water and dust resistant and support Bluetooth 5.0 along with a heart-rate and blood oxygen level monitor.
The watch will have a physical button to navigate the interface and can be used to lock and unlock the device. The watch is also expected to come with five pre-loaded watch faces with the option to install more via the companion app. The watch is also expected to support Hindi.
