Third-party reviews

What customers like about Boat Trebel Watch Matrix

  • Vibrant 1.65-inch AMOLED display with 'Always On' mode for clear outdoor visibility
  • Premium design featuring a slim metal casing and lightweight square dial
  • Comprehensive health tracking including SpO2, heart rate, and sleep monitoring
  • Long-lasting battery life of up to 7-10 days under normal usage conditions
  • Good value for money within the budget smartwatch segment

What customers don't like about Boat Trebel Watch Matrix

  • Frequent Bluetooth connectivity issues reported, specifically with Android devices
  • Battery life drops significantly (to approximately 2 days) when 'Always On' display is enabled
  • Lack of Bluetooth calling functionality which is common in similar price brackets
  • Limited variety of built-in watch faces according to some users
  • Reliability concerns with reports of the device or specific functions (like music control) stopping after a few months
  • Notification management can be inconsistent, with some users reporting missing or unreadable alerts

Verdict

The boAt TRebel Watch Matrix is a premium fitness-oriented smartwatch featuring a 1.65-inch AMOLED square display with 341 PPI pixel density and a 2.5D curved glass design. Its core characteristics include a 3 ATM dust and water resistance rating, a built-in SpO2 blood oxygen monitor, 24/7 heart rate tracking, and 11 distinct sports modes integrated with the boAt Crest app ecosystem. Main pros include a slim metal casing, customizable cloud-based watch faces, and a reliable battery life that lasts up to 7 days on a single charge (reduced to 2 days with the Always-On Display enabled). However, notable cons include the lack of a built-in microphone or speaker for Bluetooth calling, the absence of integrated GPS for standalone distance tracking, and reported sync stability issues with the companion application.
