UMIDIGI teased the launch of its first-ever smartwatch in the Nepali market a few days ago. To clarify, the company has had smartwatches but only in the international market. This is the first for Nepal. We guessed it was the UMIDIGI Uwatch 5S, and that indeed was the case! Let's take a deeper look at the watch and along with its price in Nepal.

UMIDIGI Uwatch 5S Overview

Design and Display

The UMIDIGI Uwatch 5S comes in a squircle casing made out of aircraft-grade aluminium. It boasts 5ATM water resistance, so going on a swim with it is no problem at all. For navigation, it has two buttons on the right. This watch is available in three colour options: Space Grey, Titanium Grey, and Rose Gold. On the front, it has a 1.7-inch colour display with touch support. UMIDIGI Uwatch 5S has gone with TFT LCD for its panel. The screen measures 240 x 280 pixels in resolution. Additionally, it has 2.5D tempered glass on top with an anti-fingerprint coating.

Features and Battery

The UMIDIGI Uwatch 5S is equipped with the PixArt PPG sensor for heart rate tracking. Meanwhile, it can also keep track of your blood oxygen, sleep, and menstrual cycle. Other than that, it can give you sedentary, medication, and water-drinking reminders as well. Unlike the standard UMIDIGI Uwatch 5, the 5S does not come with navigation support. However, it packs 9-axis sensors for activity tracking and offers 19 sports modes plus other various insights like calories burned, step count, distance covered, cadence, and so on. For connection with your smartphone, it relies on Bluetooth v5.0 and is compatible with Android as well as iOS devices. You can link the watch with the OyeFit app to access all your fitness data. It offers additional functionalities like music control, camera remote, call and app notifications, but sadly misses out on Bluetooth calling. With all the features it offers, this watch can last up to 10 days on general usage with its 400mAh battery. Once depleted of charge, it can get back up in less than two-and-a-half hours with the two-pin charger you get in the box.
