The Zeblaze Rover normally comes in at $79.99, but a special price cut has the watch on sale via Gearbest for just $38.59.

If the Apple Watch styling of the Rover doesn’t get your clock ticking, then the elegant Zeblaze Crystal might be enough to catch your eye. The “Beyond Exquisite” wearable boasts a curved display for a more comfortable operation and Zeblaze UI which scrolls from top to bottom rather then right to left.

Pricing for the Crystal hasn’t been released but the formal launch date of 5th August should reveal the cost and additional specification details.

Yep … they wrote the price to be $79.99 on their website. The watch does look really exquisite though, I gotta say.

I have only recently started to pay attention to smartwatches, really have no interest in ever buying one (not a big watch phone to begin with) but I have to say the No. 1 looks the best.

tried a few of these smartwatches now and they are all basically very lacking….
hope this one is better.
hope the interface looks like the renders.
hope you dont have to turn pedometer and sleep tracking on/off.
hope notification works.
hope the app isnt a really poor chinese version 0.00001 !
so far have tried :-
zeaplus band – rubbish app, constantly resets itself to factory, alarm doesnt work, notification doesnt work, constantly vibrating for no reason, and to top it all one of the main point of getting a fitness band is to track steps and sleep. On the Zeaplus band you have to remember to turn sleep tracking on and off when you want to use it !!! which kind of defeats the object I think.
Zeaplus Watch S2 – As above – you have to turn pedometer and sleep tracking on and off when you want to use them, plus Heartrate monitor isnt a monitor its a feature you turn on then read your heartbeat then turn off… again, pretty useless for fitness tracking, you need heatrate monitoring all the time when training, … all these faults makes it pretty useless really ! oh yes… and battery life is awful. and the app is awfull too.
RWatch R8 – Exactly like the zeaplus. Nice design, crap app. have to turn sleep and pedometer on/off, heartrate is just a gimmick etc etc .
the winner so far…..
The Xiaomi Mi band. simple, does the job, no on/off problems. battery lasts forever. Nice clean, well thought out app. If only it had a simple screen to display time it would be perfect.
