Therefore, if you are more into colors, then Apple Watch Series 6 has better variants.

The series 6 model has a display-on facility, which Apple Watch SE does not have. However, that isn’t a significant difference because the display-on facility drains your battery easily.

Apple Watch Series 6 Vs Apple Watch SE: Major Features

For instance, the oxygen level in your body is thoroughly measured and reminded when it changes. These sensors helps you a lot in keeping the check with your health. However, Apple Watch SE only has fall detection, noise monitoring, and haptic feedback settings.

What’s Common!

Both the watches were launched on September 16, 2020. Moreover, both have almost the same design. The operating system of the Apple watches is watch0S 7 with dual-core. The processor of Series 6 is S5, whereas SE has S6 with a 64-bit dual-core processor. The internal memory also follows the same as that of 32GB. The recently launched ‘Family Setup’ is supported in both the watches. One can easily say that all the primary factors are the same for Apple Watch Series 6 and Apple Watch SE.

Above All, Price Matters

The most concrete factor in which the differentiation of Apple Watch Series 6 vs. Apple Watch SE stands is the pricing. The price matters above all the features. The Apple Watch Series 6 costs start from 40,900 for the GPS model, whereas 49,900 for the GPS+Cellular model. However, Apple Watch SE offers 29,900 for the GPS model and 33,900 for the GPS+Cellular model. Meanwhile, it’ll be soon available in India.

Fitbit Charge 4 With GPS Is Now One Of The Best Fitness Tracker Out There

Fitbit has always been a trusted name when it comes to fitness trackers. They produce some of the most accurate devices in the market. Fitbit Charge 4 is the new entry in GPS enabled tracker market. The device comes at 150USD price and is so far the best budget deal by the company. Let us discuss some features of the device.

Let us talk about the build and display

First things first, the device has a monochrome display; it only shows black and white colors. IT is quite a caveat as other fitness trackers in the price range already come with an AMOLED display that is capable of producing colors. However, the 1”(160 x 160) display is very responsive to touches and swipes. The brightness struggles through sunlight.  There is no touch button, like in the last device. The small size of the display does not favor reading it while moving.

Similar to the predecessor, the device is a worthy upgrade

The device is almost similar to Fitbit Charge 3. Those who have it, their bands might fit on both the devices. With the new device, Fitbit is launching a scheme called Active Zone minutes. The tracker is specially programmed to measure accurate heartbeats. The more intense an activity you are doing, the more your heart rate. The watch measures your heart rates through various activities and notifies you about any progress made through the smartphone application. You also get some credit on the application, as a reward for staying fit. 

The watch comes with three heartzones; Fat Burn, Cardio and Peak 

GPS connectivity is pretty good

Charge 4 is the first fitness tracker by Fitbit that has an inbuilt GPS module. The best GPS watches out there connect with satellites within seconds, and so does this one. The watch also has six different exercise selection. They include activities like swimming, biking, running, workout and walk. You can set this up for yourself through the application. The heart zone monitoring makes the device buzz and notifies you when you work from one heart zone to another.

You can also connect your headphones with the device, for receiving audio notifications and controlling your music. You also have dedicated Spotify controls.  The device can track your sleep, and also approximate oxygen variation. The Smart Wake feature also predicts the perfect time for you to wake up, and can vibrate the band. Fitbit Pay support can help you on the go.

The battery life on this one is around 7 days(GPS off) and up to 5 hours while using GPS. So if you are looking for a fitness tracker in the sub 200USD price range, you might consider this one. There is also a special edition that is 20USD expensive than the standard one and comes with a designer silicone strap.

  • Other features include a dedicated screen for controlling your music. I appreciate that they put a brightness setting into the device. You can adjust it according to you. The vibrations are decent. The display differentiates well between colors.

You can also set a wallpaper that might have any image on your mobile phone, owing to the AMOLED coloured display.

FITBIT INSPIRE – 6000 INR

  • Build quality is reliable. The simple form factor is for those who do not want a fancy looking device. The fitness tracker is pretty good at what it does. Fitbit is one of the oldest in business.

HUAWEI WATCH GT(46mm) – 14999INR

  • The chassis has a 1.39” AMOLED display. It comes with a Kirin A1 processor and 2GB of RAM. A total of 2.2GB out of 4GB is available for the user to use as internal storage. The bezel-less design is eye-catchy. The screen is capable of producing brilliant and sharp colors.
