A few days again, Lava launched its first ever smartwatch in India. It’s referred to as Lava ProWatch ZN. If you wish to try its unboxing, you possibly can try our YouTube channel (it’s accessible within the shorts part). Lava has strategically determined to launch a smartwatch as it’s a rising market within the nation. The smartwatch from Lava is priced within the reasonably priced class. Whereas the corporate has struggled to crack the smartphone business in India, is ‘smartwatch’ a class it may possibly dominate in?
I’ve been utilizing the Lava ProWatch ZN for the final three days, and I’ve taken it on runs, made calls via it, and another stuff. This is my overview of the identical.

Lava ProWatch ZN Evaluate: Design
Lava ProWatch ZN is a great-looking smartwatch. You may get it in two kinds of straps -silicon and steel. Each are in another way priced, however nonetheless very a lot within the funds vary. The silicon strap is superb. It feels sturdy and premium. The physique of the smartwatch is extraordinarily mild and feels comfy on the wrist.
There are two dials. I’d have cherished it if it was only one to maintain the design quite simple. However there are two dials. The underside dial is to immediately entry the exercise menu. The higher dial is to modify on and off. It has a spherical dial and every thing else appears to be like like an everyday smartwatch. I just like the Black variant that Lava has despatched me.
How sturdy the strap is, we are going to solely get to know within the long-term. However general, there aren’t any complaints within the design division.
Ranking – 9/10.

Lava ProWatch ZN Evaluate: Show
The show of Lava ProWatch ZN has a good show ‘for the worth’. I’ve talked about ‘for the worth’ right here as a result of if it was within the Rs 4,000 class, then I would not have preferred it a lot. There is a spherical 1.43-inch show with assist for 466×466 decision. It’s not the very excessive, however as a result of it helps 600nits of peak brightness, you possibly can comfortably view the contents on the display screen even beneath daylight.
As for the lag, it has been fairly clean thus far. Lengthy-term use may even assist me in figuring out this additional. However for now, the contact could be very responsive. What I do not like is the watch face. The usual that include the smartwatch and those which are contained in the app, I do not like them a lot. Perhaps it’s a decision downside. However as of now, I have never grown to love them even after three days.
That might be a private factor. I’d encourage you to get your individual expertise of the watch faces. However that is an space the place I believe Lava ought to enhance on.

Lava ProWatch ZN Evaluate: Efficiency
The very first thing I want to level out in efficiency is connectivity. It has superb connectivity with my smartphone. It’s essential obtain the ProSpot app in your cellphone to attach and pair the smartwatch.
Let’s begin with the battery life. I opened the smartwatch at I did not cost it. It was at 90% battery degree, and after three days of utilization (I do not put on it at evening whereas sleeping), it stands at 61%. Word that I’ve saved Bluetooth calling on. In reality, I’ve picked up a number of calls via the smarwatch (which I actually just like the expertise of with the Lava ProWatch ZN).
The exercise mode upset me. Firstly, there is not any swimming assist, which I perceive because the smartwatch wanted to be saved reasonably priced. However then, for the operating mode, the space that the smarwatch measured was very off from the fact. I’ll take it on extra runs sooner or later, and if the efficiency improves, I’ll replace you guys right here in addition to on YouTube.
So my belief on the operating mode assist is kind of low. Since I’m a distance runner, I’d nonetheless keep on with a Garmin or an Apple Watch Extremely for operating.
You possibly can play video games on the smarwatch, management music, do respiratory workouts, examine SpO2 degree, females can observe their menstrual cycle, and extra with the Lava ProWatch ZN.
When it comes to general efficiency, I just like the options and the battery life, however I do not belief the exercise measurement.

Lava ProWatch ZN Evaluate: Value and Conclusion
The Lava ProWatch ZN is a good product general. I want Lava could make the smartwatch extra correct in monitoring runs and sports activities actions via a software program replace within the close to future. It’s priced at Rs 2599 for the silicon strap and Rs 2999 for the steel strap.
You possibly can positively buy it in case your purpose for the time being is to not use it for monitoring sports activities actions. I’d say its step counting can also be a bit off. My OnePlus cellphone counts steps higher and extra precisely, very like the iPhone. Nevertheless, it’s nothing that Lava cannot repair via a easy software program replace.
My advice for you’ll be which you could buy it for fashion, appears to be like and general options.
