Noise, which is currently leading the budget wearable market, recently launched its new ColorFast Ultra watch. It is priced under Rs 5,000, and while the market is already crowded with good options, the new Noise wearable aims to please users with its massive colorful display, 60 sports modes, and other smart features.
The Noise ColorFast Ultra is selling for Rs 3,999 in India. Read our detailed Noise ColorFit Ultra review to know more about whether this smartwatch deserves to be on your wrist.
Noise ColorFit Ultra review: What is good?
The Noise ColorFit Ultra has a standard design with a rectangular dial. The brand has mostly used the same design across its watches. But, the new one has a slightly bigger display and better color reproduction. The display has slightly big bezels around it as well. The body is built out of Aluminum alloy and plastic. It feels quite solid; however, it attracts scratches quite easily.
The watch comes with silicone straps, which can be swapped with third-party straps. There is a release button on the back of the watch to remove the straps, so you can easily change them. There is only one button on the right side of the watch, which can be used to wake up the screen, shoot up the apps menu, and as a back button to head back to the home screen.
It is IP68 rated, so the smartwatch is water-resistant up to 1.5 m. This means that one doesn’t need to worry about water splashes and sweat. However, the device is not designed for swimming. The Noise ColorFast Ultra is lightweight but is also pretty big.
It features a 1.75-inch display, which is much bigger than some of the budget watches offered by Amazfit, Realme, and other brands. This watch will look pretty big on slim wrists. The watch doesn’t have an AMOLED panel and users get an LCD screen. Nevertheless, it is still vibrant enough and viewing angles are fine. The panel operates at 320 x 385 pixels resolution. It’s bright enough to be viewed outdoors, and its touch response is just fine.
Noise ColorFit Ultra review: What is not good?
There are a few things that I would like to point out about the Noise ColorFit Ultra that one should keep in mind before buying it. There is no support for GPS for distance tracking and the device uses your primary phone to offer results. There is also no ambient light sensor, which makes it easier to adjust brightness levels in different lighting conditions. So, users will have to head to the settings section every time they want to adjust brightness.
The smartwatch doesn’t display full messages or notifications, which defeats the whole purpose of using this smart device. The NoiseFul app shows a few ads once in a while and even sends notifications for its products, which is annoying. In addition to this, the company should make it easier to check daily, weekly, and monthly data as it is a bit annoying to every time switch back to the calendar to check (old) data. The smartwatch loses a full day’s data if it switches off during the day and has not synced to the app.
Noise ColorFit Ultra :
The Noise ColorFul Ultra is a good budget smartwatch, which offers enough features to please users. It can track steps, SpO2, sleep, heart rate, 60 sports modes, and show notifications. You can also reply to some messages and send a text to incoming calls. It has a quite big vibrant display, good battery life, IP68 water-resistant rating, and a good customizable companion app. However, one should keep in mind that this watch lacks GPS and an ambient light sensor.
