Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5 Active Midnight
Score: 76/100Rankings
The Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5 Active Midnight Black delivers a lightweight design, long battery life, and clear Bluetooth calling with three-mic noise cancellation. However, it omits built-in GPS, NFC, and an always-on display, limiting its appeal for serious athletes. Best for budget-conscious casual users who prioritize comfort and basic health tracking over advanced navigation features.
The Popglory Smart Watch sports a large 2.01-inch TFT screen, AI voice control, and built-in speaker and mic for hands-free calls, plus extensive health tracking. It lacks GPS, has short unspecified battery life, and its sensors are not medically accurate. Targeted at budget-focused users who want basic smartwatch functions and a large display.

Professional reviewers consider the Popglory Smart Watch an excellent low-price option for users who need basic fitness and notification features, especially praising its live sleep tracking, AI voice commands, and hands-free calling.

Professional reviewers commend the Redmi Watch 5 Active for its impressive 18-day battery life and clear Bluetooth calling with three-mic active noise cancellation, noting that the 2-inch LCD offers respectable resolution for the price. However, they criticize the absence of an always-on AMOLED display, built-in GPS, and NFC, and point out the single non-customizable button as a usability drawback.
Everyday users consistently praise the long battery endurance and reliable call quality, as well as the large selection of watch faces. Common complaints revolve around the LCD screen's lower vibrancy, lack of an always-on mode, occasional button responsiveness issues, and the limited adjustability of the strap.
