Gone are the days when quality specs automatically means you’ll have to spend a lot. With gadgets becoming more affordable, it just feels great that more people are getting access to items that can help make life easier. Speaking of affordability, today (July 9, 2020), we’ve just witnessed the launch of a flagship phone for less than Php 25,000 and the launch of a smartwatch that definitely fits our budget so we can’t wait to tell you about it! We’ll be sharing details about the new realme X3 SuperZoom soon, but for now, let’s focus our eyes on the new realme watch.
This new addition to realme Philippines’ AIoT products is a game-changer with features like a 24-hour Heart Rate Monitor, Blood Oxygen Monitor, Camera Control, Intelligent Activity Tracker, and 14 Sports Modes for only Php 3,990. In fact, realme will also be offering this for Php 1,000 off during Lazada’s mid-year sale, so consider that a steal!

The realme watch needs a realme Link App in order to work; however, it’s only downloadable via Google Play. It can be used on any Android device, though! In just a few days, I’ve become attached to the realme watch because of its features. My favorites would definitely be the Drink Water Reminder, Camera Control, and Call Reject features! Been using it so much for the past few days.
To purchase it for Php1,000 off, just visit the realme store in Lazada during their 7.15 mid-year sale to automatically score discounts.
