realme expanded its smartwatch lineup in India with the launch of the realme Watch 5 alongside the realme P4x 5G smartphone. The Watch 5 is manufactured locally through realme’s partnership with Optiemus Electronics under the Make in India initiative.
It features a 1.97-inch AMOLED display with 600 nits brightness, protected by a 2D flat glass cover. The body includes an aluminium-alloy functional crown, metallic uni-body construction and honeycomb speaker holes, while the strap adopts a 3D-Wave design built with skin-safe materials for visibility in low-light surroundings.
The Watch 5 supports HD Bluetooth calling, NFC, Always-on Display and more than 300 customizable watch faces. Its independent GPS module works with five GNSS systems to enable route tracking without the need for a paired smartphone. Users have access to 108 sports modes along with guided workouts and stretching tools, with activity and fitness data synchronized through the realme Link app.
Additional software utilities include music control, game guardian mode, compass and personal coach. Health-tracking features on the Watch 5 cover sleep monitoring, SpO2 measurement, heart rate tracking, menstruation management and stress monitoring. The device also provides three types of breathing training as part of its wellness suite.
Battery performance is rated at up to 16 days under standard usage conditions and up to 20 days in Light Mode depending on settings.
