Announced at Rs. 3,999, the Crossbeats Armour Dive smartwatch is a modern smartwatch with a rugged build quality and advanced features including Bluetooth calling and health sensors.

With so many smartwatch options available in the market, the competition becomes stiff for the Crossbeats Armour Dive smartwatch; specifically when we speak of a price bracket below Rs. 4,000.

Crossbeats Armour Dive Smartwatch Review: Design, Display

Dial shapeRound
Dial caseAluminum
StrapsSoft silicone
Strap typeDetachable

The Crossbeats Armour Dive Smartwatch offers a mix of a classic yet stylish design language. The dial type is round which is encased within an aluminum frame. Making this smartwatch more rugged is the MIL-STD 810H military-grade certification. With this the smartwatch becomes 100 percent swim-proof and ideal for outdoor usage. The strap material is soft silicone which you’ll find comfortable for daily wear.

While the Crossbeats Armour Dive smartwatch offers a rugged form factor it is a bit bulky compared to the counterparts available in the market. This could be a bummer for the masses demanding a sleek smartwatch for daily wear. Also, you’ll feel your wrist sweating if the temperature outdoors is high. You get the option to change the straps as they offer a detachable design.
