Rating of the best smartwatches under 10,000 rubles for 2022

A smart watch is a modern device that can not only show the time, but also send message notifications, information about the owner’s health (basic parameters, such as heart rate, calories burned while jogging and steps taken) to the display. About the best smart watches worth up to 10,000 rubles. we will tell below.

What is the difference between smartwatches and fitness trackers?

Actually, the presence of its own operating system. The rest of the devices, no matter how the manufacturer calls them, are just electronic watches with advanced functionality that have nothing to do with smart.

Criterias of choice

When choosing, focus on your needs. If you play sports, look for models with built-in heart rate sensors, training programs, and a GPS module. The latter allows you to record the data of the same run without a smartphone.

Design is a matter of taste, but if you want a device that can be worn both with a tracksuit and with an office one, it is better to take models in a concise design, in a compact case with a neutral (black, white) strap color.

Material

The watch case can be metal, plastic, and here everything also depends on preferences. One has only to take into account that if you often go out into nature or work out in the gym, then it is still better to take a device with a case made of steel, aluminum, a bezel protruding above the surface or plastic lining that protects the "stuffing" of the watch from damage.

If you are into active sports, choose models with impact-resistant Gorilla Glass. It is resistant to scratches from accidental impacts and will easily withstand a fall from a height of a couple of meters.

Built-in microphone and speakers

Such a watch allows you not only to receive notifications, but also to receive, answer calls, listen to music. It will come in handy so as not to waste time looking for your phone in your bag. Unfortunately, there are no fully autonomous "adult" watches with a SIM card slot.

OS

Android Wear, a product of Google, is considered universal. It is compatible with any mobile devices, has a clear and fairly simple interface. A bonus is the ability to listen to music and control the volume, switch tracks from the watch screen, the ability to change the screensaver on the display, and, of course, support for voice commands.

• Tizen OS is developed by giants Intel and Samsung. It surpasses Google in speed, supports MST (Samsung Pay payment system). Of the minuses - problems with synchronization, the impossibility of full integration with devices on the Android platform.
• Pebble OS is a limited number of applications. The rest of the functionality is similar to the previous ones.

Of the benefits - the ability to create your own design of the dial. You can do this on the official website of the developer.

Screen

Larger is better, but if we talk about the type of matrix, then it is better to take OLED. The LCD glares in the bright sun and it is almost impossible to see the information on the display. OLED doesn't have this problem.

Waterproof

Pay attention to the IP value consisting of 2 digits. The first means the class of protection against dust (ideally, it should be at least 5), the second - from water (at least 2). So a device with an IP 53 index, for example, will calmly withstand splashes of water, the same rain.
The second point is the ATM indicator. It determines whether the watch can be used while swimming or diving:

• 3 - the device will survive a short-term immersion in water or water splashes (there is no question of bathing);
• 5 - in such hours you can safely swim, but without diving and diving to a depth;
• 10 - Suitable for scuba diving.

Now more about the indicators of 50 m and 100 m (usually on the back cover) - this is just a manufacturer's guarantee that when immersed in still water, the pressure will not damage the electronics. And here the main word is motionless. If, for example, the watch is submerged in the same sea or river water, the waves will create enough pressure to damage the device.

Where could I buy

Ideally, it is better in a digital technology store - there will be an opportunity to check both the image quality on the display and ease of operation. Yes, and build quality, design is better to evaluate live.

If you are going to place an order on the Internet, pay attention to:

• user reviews about the watch itself and the work of the seller (it happens that the store sends either a used or obviously faulty thing);
• prices - it is better to compare the cost of the same model on different sites, including online stores of large retail chains such as Eldorado, DNS (it happens that on marketplaces, taking into account a discount of 50-60%, it still turns out to be more expensive);
• return conditions - it is better to ask the seller immediately this question.

As for Aliexpress, here it is worth checking the reputation of the seller. The more positive detailed reviews, the better.

Additional features not worth paying extra for

Blood pressure measurement is the first on the list. No smart watch can replace a regular blood pressure monitor. By the way, we noticed that major brands are careful with statements, and the instructions for devices contain a direct indication that smart watches are not a medical device. This is a kind of insurance against lawsuits - the user may well make claims against the manufacturer if, for example, trusting the readings of the watch, he does not go to the doctor in time.
Chinese nonames are less responsible in this regard and promise that their devices are in no way inferior to professional medical equipment in terms of functions.

The second is measuring SpO2, or blood oxygen levels. According to the principle of operation, such sensors are similar to medical equipment, only the latter measure continuously, and smart watch sensors - one-time, with a frequency of several tens of seconds. The indicators taken by the device will help you choose the right load when playing sports.

Criteria for choosing children's watches

The functionality of such models is usually standard - geolocation, calls and text messaging, a button for emergency calls. When choosing, pay attention to user reviews about the operation of the application (sometimes you need to download a paid version for correct operation).
If you are looking for a watch for a first grader, pay attention to the protection parameters - the child is unlikely to refuse to play snowballs and will definitely not take them off his hand before washing his hands. It is good if the display has a protective film.

The strap is better if it is silicone, not plastic. This will last longer, plus it is softer, does not rub the skin. Pay attention to the tightness of the fit - if the watch can be easily turned around the wrist, then the strap is adjusted correctly.

The camera is definitely useless, because the quality of the photo resembles pictures taken with push-button phones. By and large, there is no sense from it, but such models are more expensive.

As for additional options, such as games, then, probably, these should not be taken for a first grader. The child will be constantly distracted in class.
