Hello,
I am not much aware of smartwatches that is trending these days. I see kids wear them. I am not sure if it is a worth gift for a high-school student. Are there features good for students. Do watches have all features that come with trackers like FitBit?
Any suggestion on a smart watch type gift? There are many from 400 to 20000 rupees and I am not sure that these kids are using these days. A few suggestions will be great.
Do you want something to contact or track? There are not many smartwatches with tracking location features.
No I mean health tracker features. Location tracking is a good feature I think. In that case, there must be a sim needed, right?
There are several good options when it comes to smartwatches. I have been looking for one for my sister so I shortlisted a few.
One Plus Nord is a good option but it is around Rs. 4900. It is entry level from the brand. It has IP68 water resistant rating with Amoled screen. It doesn’t have GPS.
Realme Watch 2 Pro is another watch that you can look at. This has GPS and a good screen. It also has an IP68 rating and nice battery life. I think if you are looking for something near the 3000 Rs range, then this is a really good one.
My personal favorite is Pebble Cosmos Luxe. It is a good brand and quite famous for its classy design and features. It has an IP67 rating. The only issue is that it only has 8 hours of battery life. Best part is that it has a Bluetooth speaker phone, which is quite amazing to use. It is around 3800 Rs.
If you need any other suggestions, let me know. If budget is your concern, I can suggest some others as well.
I too need some info. Can you suggest some smart watch below 2000?
Yes, a smartwatch can be a nice gift for a high school student, and you will find options in any budget. When looking for a smartwatch for a student, you must consider that many smartwatches, like Fitbit, offer fitness tracking features, which can benefit students in sports or fitness. Also, the smartwatches can receive notifications from a paired smartphone, which can be handy for staying connected without constantly checking a phone. Some smartwatches can track heart rate, sleep quality, and even stress levels, promoting overall well-being. Consider a smartwatch with good battery life to ensure it doesn’t need frequent charging, especially during school hours.
Ensure that the smartwatch is compatible with the person’s smartphone (iOS or Android) and look for a design that suits their style if you know their liking. Also, the watch and band should be comfortable to wear all day.
You mentioned a wide price range; you can find great options even in the mid-range that offer many features. You can blindly choose from any of the popular brands e.g. Apple, Samsung, Garmin, Amazfit, and Fossil. Do check the reviews before buying a certain model.
Thanks everyone. here is the one I purchased in case someone is looking for the same.

Frankly speaking, I don’t have any idea on the brand. But all brands advertised online seem to be the same.
I purchased the above one because it has a beautiful metallic design and round face, unlike the bland-looking rectangular screens.
The screen size is a little small. Which is preferred for kids’ wrists.
The screen is very bright (as advertised) and it has the Always ON feature. I think that means the watch face will always be visible just like an analog watch.
I will ask on how it was. And I will update you guys if interested.
