Realme has officially launched the Realme Watch 5 in India, and it arrives with a noticeable upgrade in design, display quality, and smart features. The smartwatch aims to deliver a premium experience at a budget-friendly price, making it one of the most competitive launches in the smartwatch market right now.
Premium Design With a Bigger AMOLED Display
The Realme Watch 5 features a large 1.97-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 390 × 450 pixels and a 60Hz refresh rate. The screen also reaches 600 nits brightness, which means outdoor visibility should be excellent even under direct sunlight.
Realme has also gone for a more refined aesthetic. The watch comes with a metallic uni-body, an aluminium alloy rotating crown, and a stylish 3D-wave strap, offering a premium look that’s rare in this price segment.
Long Battery Life With Smart Power Modes
One of the biggest highlights is the battery efficiency. According to Realme, users can expect:
- Up to 20 days on Light Mode
- Up to 16 days on Standard Mode
This means most users can go nearly two weeks between charges, depending on usage—especially helpful for users tracking sleep and workouts continuously.
Independent GPS for Accurate Tracking
Unlike many budget smartwatches, the Realme Watch 5 includes independent GPS with 5 GNSS systems. This ensures accurate distance, route, and pace data without requiring a smartphone during runs, walks, or cycling.
