Fastrack has launched a new series of smartwatches Xtreme Pro. Available in three colours: Black, Blue, and Beige. These watches are made for outdoor enthusiasts who need a watch to keep up with their adventurous life.
The Xtreme Pro comes with durable and tough build quality to handle the outdoors. Encased in a polycarbonate body, the watch has an overall sporty feel and looks ready to take on any rough and tumble. A raised bezel gives the touch-sensitive toughened round glass adequate protection against knocks, falls, and impacts. With a case length of 49.8mm, case width of 49.8mm, and thickness of 11.1mm, the proportions are well-defined, and it looks good on the wrist. The strap is high-quality silicon and is comfortable for extended wear throughout the day, even while sleeping, showering, or exercising. In fact, one could keep the watch on all the time except for taking it off twice a week to recharge the battery. With an IP68 rating, it is ready for brief water activities and, along with dust protection, is also temperature rated to work between extremes of -10 degrees to 60 degrees. The strap is swappable for those who would like to customize the look further, factoring in the unibody colour.
With a 3.6cm AMOLED display and a 466×466 pixel resolution, the Xtreme Pro is sharp and bright. The watch display is clearly readable even in direct sunlight. The always-on display is excellent for quick glances and has an additional sleep mode where the AOD automatically switches off when it detects one is sleeping or the watch is not being worn. Touch responsiveness is good and gets the job done. One thing that really impressed is that the lift view sensor is flawless and works as expected every time without fail.
The Xtreme Pro comes with over 100+ Sports Modes to choose from. The watch also has a dedicated button to quickly reach the multisport menu and choose the one being engaged in. The watch also has Singlesync BT calling, i.e., phone call capabilities over Bluetooth with an inbuilt speaker and mic. Handy for quick calls. The watch comes with all other expected health monitoring apps which are fairly accurate. These include Heart Rate, SPO2, Stress Monitor, Sleep Monitor with REM, and a few others. Other apps like Games, AI Voice (Google Assistant or Siri), Breathing Timer, Flashlight, Calendar, Reminder, and Calculator are nifty additions to round up the feature set. The Fastrack smart app allows the option of multiple watch faces, and everyone is sure to find one they like. One can also customize their own watch face using an image of their choice.
The watch is powered by a robust processor, and all menu actions are smooth and swift without any lag. For an active user, the 300mAh battery lasts a week easily with AOD switched off, and even with the AOD on, the battery needs a charge only twice in two weeks. With Bluetooth 5.3, pairing the Xtreme Pro with a phone using the Fastrack smart app is hassle-free and straightforward. This is true for both Android and Apple phones.
