With the sudden burst of popularity that smart watch technology has had in the last few years, everyone is running out to buy some form of Android watch. As Android is the overwhelmingly dominant operating system found in mobile devices in Pakistan, everyone is looking for such a device in the market.

There has emerged a unique category in especially the last few years in the smart watch space known as ‘affordable’ smart watches. While everyone talks about, and makes lists about the best watches on the upper end like the Samsungs and the Googles, almost no one talks about the best options on the affordable side.

So in this article, we will tell you about some of the best affordable smart watch options right now.

The Affordable Android Watch Category

As is the norm with the majority of innovation in technology in the modern era, new advancements tend to start off at the upper end in terms of both price and specifications. The new features and technological advancements that happen in this category then tend to trickle down to the secondary, cheaper brands or manufacturers.

Thus over time a new category of tech product emerges, that tries to build a compromise between the bleeding edge tech on the upper end and cheaper options. This category is what the majority of everyday people living in the middle class end up purchasing from.

This is very important for most people living in Pakistan. The thing is that most people living in the country cannot afford getting branded smart watches from companies like Samsung or Google. The price tags on these watches make it nearly impossible for the average middle-class individual to buy them.

So there was a huge influx in the market of people trying to fill up the demand for cheaper, more affordable versions of the products that people in other companies were buying, from both local manufacturers and some even some international ones (Chinese, mostly).

The Best Affordable Watches

Now then, let’s get to some of the best options if you are in the market for buying a smart watch in Pakistan of the Android category.

Kieslect KS Pro

Kieslect is a somewhat unknown brand even to this day, but do not let that dissuade you from considering this a viable option, the brand has enough authority behind it to make it worthwhile. Kieslect is in fact a sub-brand of very well established and well-known Chinese electronics manufacturer Xiaomi, in the same way that Redmi is a sub-brand under them. So, expect the same level of quality that you would from any other product from that manufacturer.

The watch follows Apple’s recognizable design aesthetic, as you will find to be common in the affordable category of watches. The unique thing here is that it actually uses stainless steel as opposed to aluminum or even plastic that you might find on other watches in this category, which is the main reason we included it on this list.

The Under 5000 Category

We were originally planning to put a single watch as the best smart watch under 5000 in Pakistan, but we realized that upon extensive research that there are so many options under this category out there that it wouldn’t really be fair to give the award to a single watch.

The fact is that at that price range, the majority of watches in that category are so extremely similar that it is actually quite difficult to choose one over the other. So we thought that we would just tell you some of the aspects common in those watches and give a few options.

A common feature among these watches in terms of design is that almost all of them try to emulate the Apple watch design as closely as possible, while making compromises in materials or other relatively minor aspects. Some of them are bigger, some are smaller, but most come with a single silicon strap option.

In terms of features, there is usually no GPS (even if there is, the accuracy is usually debatable), and health tracking does tend to cover the basic everyday stuff, but don’t expect to find some of the advanced features from the top dogs like EKG or that sort of thing.

In our opinion, you should be going for this category if you have never owned a smart watch before and want to see if the smart watch lifestyle is really for you.

Some of our recommendations in this category include the Hw12 Smart Watch, the T500, the W22+ watch, 18 Pro Max Series 7, and the D18 Bluetooth Watch if you want something that looks a bit different visually. 

Haylou Rs4 Plus

Haylou, while not directly a Xiaomi sub-brand, is still in close partnership with them, including sharing the same OEM, which means that their products are more or less interchangeable for most smart watch online purchase platforms, at least in terms of the overarching company.

The main reason we have it on this list is that it has something that is practically unknown at its price point, and that is an AMOLED screen, which is close to 2 inches on top of that. All of that combines with a 60hz refresh rate to make for a watch usage experience that is in our opinion the best at this price point.

Closing Thoughts

Once you have decided on one of these great watches, the next question is which place do you go to buy them. In our opinion, the best online store in Pakistan to buy smart watches or any other kind of electronics is Leyjao.pk. The website is known for having a huge variety of different smart watches, many of them at discounted prices that will make them even more affordable for a person to buy.
