💰 I Tried the World’s Cheapest Smartwatch ($8?!) – Here’s What Happened

Ever wonder if you could stop being lazy and unhealthy without dropping hundreds of dollars? Turns out, you can—even if you’re broke.

Enter the world’s cheapest smartwatch. I paid around $8 for it (you can grab it now for about $20). When I got it, I expected a joke. But what I found actually shocked me.

📦 What’s in the box?

Simple and barebones:

  • The watch itself
  • A USB charger
  • A manual (I think? I didn’t really need it)

Setup was stupidly easy. Faster than some premium watches I’ve tried.

🩹 The Fitbit Killer?

Quick backstory: I used to own a Fitbit. It made my wrist glow red and irritated my skin, then broke way too early. So I assumed this $8 watch would be a disaster. Nope.

This thing is:

  • Way more comfortable than any watch I’ve worn
  • Fully adjustable with a soft, lightweight band
  • Better than even my normal everyday watch
  • No skin irritation at all, even after a week of wearing it daily

🖥 Apple Watch vibes… for $8?!

No, you can’t download apps like on an Apple Watch. But let’s be honest—how many Apple Watch features are you REALLY using anyway?

This is like the stripped-down version of a smartwatch, but it nails the essentials:

  • Tons of default & customizable watch faces (hundreds available via the free app)
  • Display of steps, weather, calories, miles walked, and more—all right on the home screen

⚡ Responsiveness

Swipe in any direction, use the side dial, and everything just works. The response speed? Feels like an Apple Watch. I’m serious. ZERO glitches.

🔥 Feature Bomb

This is where it gets crazy. Here’s just a fraction of what this $8-$20 watch can do:
✅ Step tracking
✅ Distance + calorie counting
✅ Heart rate & blood oxygen monitoring
✅ Stress level tracking
✅ Automatic sleep tracker
✅ Alexa integration
✅ Music control
✅ Phone call support
✅ Flashlight
✅ Full phone notifications (texts, Snapchats, etc.)
✅ Reminders, timers, alarms
✅ Weather forecast
✅ Water drinking plan
✅ Weight tracking
✅ Blood sugar management
✅ Menstrual cycle tracking
✅ V2 Max (I don’t even know what that is)
…and more—all for free, inside the app.

For the price? Mind-blowing.

🧪 Does it actually work though?

I put it to the test. Steps? Accurate. Heart rate and stress level? Matched what I was feeling and doing every time. Sleep tracker? Worked like a charm.

Nothing has glitched or miscalculated after a week of daily use.

🔋 Battery Life Test

I charged it ONCE when I first unboxed it. After 7 full days of wearing it off and on? Still at 78%. WHAT?!
That means you can track your sleep AND your daily steps without worrying about charging it at night or halfway through your day.

🏃 Workout Test

Set a 5-minute outdoor run goal → Ran → Came back → Boom, stats displayed instantly. The app even recommended a 7-hour recovery period based on my data (rude but probably true).

✅ The Verdict

I love this watch. It’s simple, comfortable, and wildly overdelivers for the price. I usually don’t stick with smartwatches because they’re overpriced—but this one? No-brainer. It works, it’s dirt cheap, and it doesn’t come with all the bloat that makes expensive watches annoying.

Honestly, even if this thing cost $100+ I’d still be impressed. At around $20? This is a steal.
