Design, Built and Comfort
The pTron Force X10 is a toned-down version of the pTron Force X11 smartwatch. It also has a normal plastic build body with an attractive metallic design at the side and a matte finish on the rest of the body.
Focused on the new generation the company has provided a bigger 1.7-inch display with a slight 2.5D curved glass at the top. The bezels on the display seems a bit thicker than the X11. Other than this the X10 has a very smooth design.
On the backside, it contains the sensors of the watch and the metallic charging terminal. Along with it, we get the branding beneath the sensors along with a speaker. Now coming to the right side of the pTron Force X10 we get a dial knob that is multifunctional and a microphone that helps while calling directly with the smartwatch.
After unboxing the product, we saw the smartwatch came with a black silicone strap attached to the body which is again a comfortable one. The silicon strap is of high quality and is wide. It is quite comfortable even if worn for a longer period of time.
Overall the pTron Force X10 is comfortable to wear and has a decent dial size with a huge display which again gives a comfortable view of the smartwatch contents on the go. This time the dial feels a bit heavy than the Force X11. The fonts and UI of the smartwatch are unconditionally catchy for the eyes for daily usage. The smartwatch is sturdy and looks premium for its pricing.
Display and UI
As mentioned earlier, the pTron Force X10 comes with a 1.7-inch rectangular display size HD color 3D curved display with a Metal Alloy casing with a resolution of 240 x 280 Pixels. The colors on the display look good and the text is sharp to read in any kind of scenario, be it outdoor or indoor. Though the watch has no option to increase or decrease the brightness, it provides an ample amount of brightness and hence I had no problem viewing the screen outdoors under bright sunlight.
The pTron Force X10 has a clean and revamped user interface and responsive touch which delivers smooth navigation and effortless control over the contents. The overall new watch UI is very user-friendly.
All the applications within the smartwatch are easy to navigate. Swipe up on the watch home screen to display a few quick access features. Swipe down for notification alerts, and swipe left and right for some preloaded watch faces. Click on the home screen to display the full menu, where you can find all the required icons for all the features available on this smartwatch.
Connectivity
The pTron Force X10 comes with Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity covering a range of 10 meters. It connects to both Android and iPhone with its compatible app. The watch easily connects with its compatible application in no time. The smartwatch has two types of receivers- one for the watch (pTron Watch) and the other for its audio (pTron Audio). These two connect at the same time with a smartphone when Bluetooth is turned on so that you can access both the smartwatch and its calling features at the same time.
After the watch is connected to the app, you will continue to receive notifications of incoming calls and other alerts at the very same time. The connectivity range of the watch is also good so even if you are far from your phone, it shall not fail to notify you of important calls and reminders.
Calling Features
The most valuable feature of the pTron Force X10 is its calling feature. It has an inbuilt microphone located beside the dial knob for voice reception during a call and an inbuilt speaker placed at the bottom side corner in such a way that the sound coming out from it creates an echo with the hand.
The Force X10 has two options related to calling. First, we can see a Dialer icon which helps us to dial any particular phone number and if connected with a smartphone we can also initiate a call from the watch itself by clicking numbers on the dialer. Next, we can see the Contacts icon where we can add a maximum of 3 contacts via the pTron Fit+ app.
Now coming to the actual section, which is calling. The sound coming from the speaker of the smartwatch is not very loud but it does the work. For a budget-range smartwatch, we can expect such Bluetooth calling quality. The microphone is also decent in this watch.
pTron Fit+ App
For the very first time, pTron has launched its own smart application ‘pTron Fit+’ for its smartwatch lineup. When connected via a device we can get detailed data about the various functionalities of the watch in the pTron Fit+ such as the record of sleep time for a complete week, the heartbeat, BP and other health results, the number of calories lost during your last exercise session etc.
You get 5 inbuilt pre-installed watch faces with the fifth one being customizable with photos of your choice from the app. Another watch face can be changed as per your choice along with over 150+ cloud-based downloadable watch faces. You can also customize several features via the app which can not be altered from the watch as well.
Fitness Features
Due to the ongoing pandemic situation, most people have restrained themselves from going to the gym and have started working out in their own homes. pTron Force X10 comes very handy with keeping track of the number of calories you want to burn each day or calculating the duration of your daily exercise time. It can even check your heart rate along with your blood oxygen level and others.
It has the functionalities to record the number of steps, duration, and pace during various outdoor activities and track various other activities like swimming, cycling, skipping, running etc. It has a total of 8 Fitness Modes instilled within it. Detailed information about each fitness mode can be obtained from its compatible app.
pTron Force X10 is both water and sweat resistive with an IP68 rating hence no need to worry about any sort of damage during your favorite training sessions. It can also accompany you during your swimming sessions. Still, it would have definitely been better if more sports modes would have been provided inside the watch.
Notifications and Other Apps
pTron Force X10 can be used to receive real-time notifications of incoming calls or other apps from the smartphone-like text messages, notifications, etc. while connected to the smartphone via Bluetooth. You can choose which notifications you want and which you don’t want by configuring the settings in the pTron Fit+ App.
The smartwatch also has other features like it can monitor the weather, can be used to set up an alarm, can be used as a remote control for the music player in your phone and camera, and can be used as a stopwatch as well.
Battery Life and Charging
pTron Force X10 features a battery that can give you a proper 7 days around life and if used continuously will last over almost 5-6 days which is quite good. The battery life completely depends on its usage brightness levels and the frequency of connectivity.
It comes with a dual pin magnetic charger and it grips quite well at the back of the watch. A full charge can be done from 0% to 100% in just 3 hours.
