💰 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.
