- Realme has officially announced the Watch S series.

Realme teased the Watch S Pro back in September as the next smartwatch slated for a European debut. Now the company has officially announced the wearable and it will soon go to India.
In contrast to the square Realme watch, the Watch S Pro has a round 1.39-inch AMOLED display (454 x 454) with a stainless steel case. The face is coated in Corning Gorilla Glass, while various alternative straps are available, including vegan leather and silicone.
Internally, the Watch S Pro uses the Arm Cortex-M4 as its centerpiece and packs a 420 mAh battery for up to 14 days. This silicone also supports the basic smartwatch and health monitoring functions of the watch.
The Watch S Pro has an SpO2 monitor with heart rate monitoring. Sleep tracking and activity tracking for 15 sport modes are also available. A swim mode for tracking strokes and other readings is also included, while the watch also offers 5 ATM water resistance. A dual GPS system is also suitable for adventurers.

For those looking for something smaller and less bulky, the Realme Watch S also made its debut alongside its Pro sibling. It has an aluminum alloy body with a smaller 1.3-inch 360 x 360 display. Gorilla Glass is welcome on the cheaper device, while a Master Edition with custom dials and bracelets from designer Grafflex is also available.
The smaller case of the Watch S fits on a 390 mAh battery, which corresponds to a claimed battery life of 15 days. Fitness features include an SpO2 sensor, heart rate monitor, and 16 sport modes. The watch S also features IP68 water and dust resistance.
