Design And Build Quality

The DT102 smartwatch is just like DT7 Max, so it’s very similar to it when it comes to looks except for slight differences, it brings a modern and elegant design that makes you want to wear it as an accessory not to mention its functionalities, on top there is the large IPS 2.5 curved glass touch screen that provides a clear image, high brightness and is very responsive for a cheap smartwatch, on the right side we find the rotatable button that serves multiple functions such as changing watch faces, zooming in and out, turn on and off, back to the previous screen or to home. And just below the button, you’ll find the microphone, addition of holes in the left part, which is the built-in speaker.

From underneath there is the sensor responsible for all the health and sports features on the device, you will also notice the absence of any charging pins, that’s because it’s wireless.

All in all, this smartwatch is compact and feels solid thanks to the aluminum alloy material that makes the frame and the body, with the dimensions of 45mm and 13 mm in thickness, it is also very comfortable on the wrist because it only weighs around 40g, the manufacturer made it available in three colors and so is the strap.

While using the DT102 smartwatch, it will provide you the best experience you can possibly get on budget devices, special thanks to the color accuracy and sharpness, the image is clear and rich, and even under direct sunlight, you’ll be able to use your smartwatch with ease whether you want to read notification or check your health stats, you won’t need to get your phone out of your pocket, the screen also provides always-on display feature which we usually only find OLED screens, but this time they made it available here despite the technology obstacle, now you check the time without having to turn your screen on, it will always be there, as well as checking the battery level when charging, otherwise if you wanna do more than just check the time, you can turn the screen on by gently double-tapping it to wake it up.

This screen meets most features you would expect at this price point, the 2.5D curved glass combined with the high screen-to-body ratio gives this smartwatch a plus in the aesthetic department, and the high responsiveness makes it very practical for daily usage when outside, for that, I personally prefer this screen over others and would love to see it used more.
