  • Lack of advanced features like built-in GPS (relies on smartphone GPS) or NFC for mobile payments

Verdict

The Blackview W10 is a budget-friendly smartwatch featuring a 1.69-inch HD touch display with a 240 x 280 pixel resolution and a lightweight 51.6g design. It is powered by a Realtek 8763E processor and a 290mAh battery that delivers up to 5 days of typical use or 30 days on standby. Key characteristics include IP68 water resistance, over 100 sports modes, and 24/7 health tracking for heart rate, blood pressure, and sleep. Its main advantages are the support for Bluetooth calling via a built-in microphone and speaker, an extensive library of over 230 customizable watch faces, and three distinct UI styles. However, it lacks built-in GPS, requiring a smartphone connection for route tracking, and does not support blood oxygen (SpO2) monitoring or NFC for contactless payments.
