Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd Review: A Premium Smartwatch Within Budget
Chinese smart-wearable brand Kieslect launched Kieslect Kr 2, in 2024 to demonstrate its ability in crafting quality devices. A limited edition of the watch, the Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd, has entered Bangladesh and garnered attention in the affordable market where premium names like Xiaomi and CMF rule. This article provides a look at Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd's specifications and gives a competitive overview of its key features, strengths, weaknesses, and target audience.
In-Depth Review of Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd
The Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd edition excludes the extra pair of straps offered by the regular Kieslect Kr 2 model; otherwise, both share the same features and capacities.
Design
The Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd has a 46.40 by 11.65mm circular stainless steel frame and a silicone strap. Though the mainframe is metal, the watch uses a plastic back panel to reduce extra weight, but it still feels a little heavy at 58 g. To navigate, users will find three metal crowns crowding on the right side. The watch comes in an Iron Gray colour choice and IP68 dust-water resistance.

Competitively, the Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd is slimmer than the CMF Watch Pro 2 and close to the thickness of the Xiaomi Smart Band 9 Pro. But it struggles against the CMF and Xiaomi’s lighter full-metal bodies, leather straps and multiple color options.
Display
The Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd brings a 1.43-inch AMOLED display, larger than CMF’s but smaller than Xiaomi’s. In terms of vivacity and brightness, the Kr 2 stands out with a 466 by 466 px picture resolution and 1000 nit peak brightness level. Its 60Hz refresh rate is also on par, providing a beyond-class touch response. The watch covers the screen with a high hardness that comes with an extra copy.
Hardware and Software
Featuring a 240Mhz dual-core processor and a 2.5D GPU, the Kieslect Kr 2 Ltd provides satisfactory performance. It unpacks over 100 sports modes and diverse sensors. Users will get near-accurate feedback from the built-in biometric sensor.

More than standard smartwatch functions, the watch boasts easy pairing and additional features, like AI voice response, mini-games, and a dual-screen display.
Battery and Charger
A giant 360mAh battery surpasses all competition by providing support for 6 to 7 days of typical usage, which reduces to 3 to 4 days with heavy usage. If run on battery saver mode, the watch can survive 50 days at a stretch. The fully depleted battery takes around 2 hours to be charged from zero to full.

Colmi P78 Smartwatch Review: A Feature-Packed Budget Wearable Worth Considering
Colmi has built a strong reputation among budget-conscious smartwatch users, offering affordable yet feature-rich devices. The popular Chinese brand recently introduced its latest model, the Colmi P78, in Bangladesh, aiming to attract wearable tech enthusiasts with a balance of functionality and affordability. In this review, we’ll explore its key features, ideal users, and whether it’s worth your money.
Key Specifications of the Colmi P78 Smartwatch
The Colmi P78 is a fine overhaul of its predecessor. It boasts a more polished design, a larger screen, and additional features contributing to a better experience.
Design
The design features a round-cornered, rectangular mainframe containing about a 2-inch display. Colmi has coined the term “bowl-shaped,” referring to the watch’s spherically curved sides. Beyond its larger body, the Colmi P78 differs from its predecessor in many ways, including featuring slimmer bezels and incorporating a side-mounted flashlight.

Though the entire body is plastic-made, all seams and engravings manifest delicate finishing and IP67 water resistance. With a 10.7mm thickness and 30g of weight, the watch meets the mass demand for a slim and lightweight design.
On the upper right side sits a knurled crown with added functionalities to sweep through different on-display options. For every unit of rotation, the crown makes a clicking sound, allowing blind navigation. The knurls give a better grip, even for wet hands. The watch provides four distinct colour variations– black, silver, pink, and gold.
Display
The Colmi P78 ships with a 1.95-inch AMOLED screen, an appreciable leap from the previous model’s LCD panel. Also, a wider 410 by 502 resolution renders sharper visuals on the screen. However, due to a lower refresh rate, the navigation across the board lacks the smooth haptic feedback of higher touch-responsive displays. Unlike many budget-friendly options, the display supports always-on-display screensavers.

Menus and icons, reflected in well-saturated, vivid colors, justify the perk of using an AMOLED display. The app follows an easy synchronization procedure allowing room for all ages usability.
Hardware and Connectivities
A REALTEK8763E chip does a good job as a processor showing no lag or weariness during long conversations. Among other sensors, the VC30F-S heart chip nearly matches premium sensors in accuracy. The app features all the basic to advanced tracking systems, including sports modes, health reminders, sleep monitoring, and women's health modes that use AI algorithms to track health and provide essential insights.
