Post the coronavirus outbreak, fitness becomes our top priority. As we have to stay at the home, and working out from there only, fitness bands and/or smartwatches are the best partner to monitor and measure our daily activities, and to take care of health condition.
At present, there are so many options available in almost every electronics section. The wearable department is also the same. There are already plenty of options available at/under Rs.2,999. Within this price bracket, I can get Amazfit Bip S Lite, Noise ColorFit Pro 2, boAt Storm, boAt Enigma, or boAt Watch Flash. I know, there are a lot more, but, these are the most popular.
You probably know the arrival of boAt’s fourth smartwatch boAt Watch Xplorer today (16th April). It also costs Rs,2,999 and houses various features including a built-in GPS.
Now, should you go with the new boAt Xplorer over the existing products? Which one is the best smartwatch under Rs.3,000? Let’s find out.

If you observe, all these smartwatches have very minor changes. The boAt Xplorer only has built-in GPS in under Rs.3,000, however, lacks the always-on display and SpO2 sensor. In case the built-in GPS really matters to you and can neglect the absence of the SpO2 sensor and always-on display, boAt Xplorer is the best and only option for you.
Otherwise, the boAt Watch Storm or boAt Watch Enigma can be the best one for you. Both the smartwatches have the SpO2 sensor, boAt Watch Storm costs Rs.500 less, and the boAt Watch Enigma has an always-on display. On the other side, the other mentioned watches are also not too far. Going with any one of them will not be a bad decision at all.
