Construction and Design

 

The NoiseFit Halo features a metallic build with a matte-black finish that gives it a premium look. Two buttons on the side provide navigation control, and a circular AMOLED display with a 1.43-inch screen size and 466 x 466 resolution adds to the watch's physical appeal. The smartwatch comes with a black leather strap to match the device's color scheme. Without its strap, the NoiseFit weighs around 56.8g, making it reasonably light on the wrist. It also has an IP68 rating, making it water-resistant up to 1.5 meters for up to 10 minutes. However, it is not recommended to go swimming with the smartwatch.

 

Display and Features

 

The AMOLED screen enables an always-on display mode that works quite well, and the screen itself can get very bright for outdoor usage. The raise-to-wake functionality works efficiently, and the watch offers nearly 150 watch faces to choose from in the NoiseFit app. However, it can only store a handful. A right or left swipe brings up the widgets, and a swipe from the bottom brings up the quick settings. The NoiseFit app, available on both the Play Store and App Store, is user-friendly and informative, enabling you to make many changes to the watch's interface, including customizing the data you need the device to track. It also features a Challenges tab that allows you to participate in different workout routines and share the results with friends.

 

Fitness and Tracking

 

The NoiseFit Halo provides a usual set of exercise tracking and sports modes, with around 11 modes to choose from in the watch, and you can add more through the app. The device can accurately track runs and give out results comparable to premium smartwatches. Heart rate and sleep tracking also proved to be acceptable, although the analysis of each activity is not as detailed as other premium smartwatches.

 

Battery Life

 

With a 300mAh battery, the NoiseFit Halo lasts up to seven days on regular usage, and the charging happens via a pogo pin-based charger that is provided with the box. The smartwatch offers 45 days of standby time, which is competitive with other products in the market.

 

Pros and Cons

Pros 

• Stylish design and premium build quality

Conclusion 

If you are a fitness enthusiast, you will appreciate the Halo's exercise tracking and sports modes. The device is also water-resistant and has an impressive battery life that lasts for days on regular usage. The AMOLED display is a standout feature, especially with its Always-on functionality, and the device's stylish design is sure to turn heads.

That said, the device is not without its faults. The connectivity issues with the paired smartphone can be a bit frustrating, but they are a minor annoyance compared to the overall experience.
