Cubot has just launched a new sports smartwatch, the Cubot GT5. Priced at $96, it is relatively affordable, especially considering the range of advertised features. The inclusion of offline maps is certainly not common in this price range. Combined with the GNSS module, which supports dual-band operation and a total of five satellite navigation systems, it allows for navigation more or less independently of a smartphone. Users can also receive notifications if they deviate from the planned route.
The Cubot GT5 is also equipped with an electronic altimeter/barometer, which allows users to be warned of rapid changes in atmospheric pressure, which can also indicate imminent weather changes. The GT5 features a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen that is waterproof up to a pressure of 5 ATM. Music can be stored on the internal memory, which is limited to 256 MB. The optical sensors are supposed to measure heart rate and heart rate variability; their operation is another question and can only be determined through real-world testing. The manufacturer claims a battery life of 30 days in ultra-power-saving mode, but 12 days in normal use. Those looking for a proven model in the same price range may find the Amazfit Active 2 as an interesting alternative.
