Urban Fit S Smartwatch: Design And Display
As mentioned above, the Urban Fir S smartwatch is designed identical to the Apple Watch band. It flaunts a square dial and has silicon rubber straps. The Urban Fit S smartwatch features a digital crown that is apparently borrowed from the Apple Watch counterpart.

You wouldn’t have any complaints about it. The only drawback with the design is it isn’t entirely sweat resistant. If you are doing some rigorous activities, you’ll feel your wrist getting all sweaty. If you can ignore this factor, the Urban Fit S has a good design that fits modern standards.
Now coming to the display, the Urban Fir S smartwatch is equipped with a 1.78-inch AMOLED display. Now, this screen size is a bit taller than what the competition offers. It is a color touchscreen panel that offers smooth feedback with scrolling through the menu and available features on the watch.
