Chinese manufacturing giant, ZTE, has been quite “cold” ever since the U.S. ban which almost threw the company under the bus. The company has since released a couple of devices but none of them are making the headlines. Although it is not known for smartwatches, the company has released its latest smartwatch in China. The ZTE Watch Live selling points are its water resistance rating,Ā 24-hour heart rate monitoring, and perhaps its 21-day battery life.
According to the company, this smartwatch comes with a 1.3-inch TFT LCDĀ touch display. This screen has a resolution of 240 x 240 pixels. In terms of dimension, the ZTE Watch Live measures 40.6 x 34.6 x 10.8 mm and weighs 35.7 grams. This smartwatch also comes with a soft siliconeĀ gel strap which compliments its overall color.
The ZTE Watch Live comes with features of mainstream smartwatches. For starters, it supports 24-hour heart rate monitoring, SpO2 Blood Oxygen saturation tracker, and sleep tracking. In addition, this device can also record your stress levels and store data on your sleep log. The ZTE Watch Live offers users several watch faces to choose from.Ā Furthermore, the water and dust resistance rating is IP68. This means that it can be used for water sports such as swimming to depths of not more than 50m.
