Hands-on test · Office smartwatch
Verdict
The Urban Titanium suits office workers, with a zinc alloy case, a 1.43-inch display and over a week of battery, though health and fitness features were only satisfactory.

Third-party reviews

What we like about Urban Titanium

  • Premium design featuring a metal strap and 'corporate' aesthetic
  • Bright 1.39-inch HD display with 600 nits brightness for good sunlight visibility
  • Advanced Bluetooth calling functionality with a noise-isolating microphone
  • Comprehensive health monitoring including SpO2, heart rate, and body temperature
  • Offers over 100 sports modes for diverse activity tracking
  • Competitive battery life, rated for up to 5 days on a single charge

What we don't like about Urban Titanium

  • Reports of poor physical durability, specifically regarding the on/off button breaking easily
  • Mixed feedback on app performance, with some users reporting sync issues and an unintuitive interface
  • General dissatisfaction with overall product quality in some units, labeled as 'unsuccessful' by some buyers
  • Lack of advanced smart features found in higher-end models, such as onboard GPS or a loudspeaker for music

Verdict

The Urban Titanium is a corporate-styled smartwatch featuring a 1.39-inch Ultra HD IPS display with 600 nits of brightness and a 60Hz refresh rate. Encased in a durable zinc alloy finish with a premium stainless steel strap, it includes advanced Bluetooth calling supported by a noise-isolating microphone and a dedicated speaker. Key health tracking capabilities include 24/7 monitoring of heart rate, SpO2, blood pressure, and a specialized body temperature sensor, alongside over 100 sports modes and customizable watch faces. While its pros include a sleek professional design, clear outdoor visibility, and a solid battery life of approximately 5 to 7 days, it lacks integrated GPS for standalone route tracking and does not support Wi-Fi or NFC for contactless payments.
