It's hard to make a special watch, it's not the DT96 either, but it's worth a look!

NO.1 DT96 - One of the Most Popular Cheap Smartwatches


 

Introductory

I get a request from different stores every day to work with them. These are predominantly stores with some sort of Chinese affiliation. I reject most of these requests for one reason or another. It is very rare for me to say yes to someone, but there is one, such as the store called Hekka.

Hekka is not an old store, they started in the fall of 2021. The Singapore-affiliated parent company apparently puts a lot of energy into raising awareness, to say the least, justifying experienced colleagues from competing stores.

They currently have the largest number of warehouses in third countries, but there are already EU warehouses and they are expected to increase in the future. Prices are very good in some places, average in some places, we see this changing in the future to evolve. The subject of this article is e.g. It costs ~ 11 forints for them, and the best price in Hungary is about 000 forints. So it's worth looking around.

It is also possible to pay by card and PayPal, so the usual customer protection is available here as well. I haven't heard of them yet. They sent a product for testing, I ordered this watch myself to see how the delivery works. No problem, courier brought it, no customs clearance despite the Chinese warehouse.

Of course, I don't know if this was a unique case, for the time being, everyone should reckon with the fact that in the case of a Chinese warehouse, the usual 399 forints (in case of online administration) have to be paid for customs clearance, but since the domestic price is ~ 25 forints, and ~ 000 forints, this 11 forint customs cost does not divide or multiply.

So, for now, I think it’s worth giving Hekka a chance, and I’m looking forward to your feedback on the store, and if I experience any change, I’ll signal it on our Facebook interfaces anyway.

Heck

Until then, up to Hekka!


 

NO.1 DT96 - Packaging, accessories

Absolutely standard, simple but quality box, normal cardboard, properly protected from the inside of the watch. So that's okay. It’s a little weird that there’s a picture of the clock on the box top, but besides, there’s no information anywhere about what’s in the cardboard. Neither the name nor a short specification, nothing. But that should be the biggest mistake.

In the box you will find the accessories on the lower shelf. We do not get a happy amount. I have a user manual in a lot of languages ​​(no Hungarian) and in such small print that I needed a magnifying glass. Let’s just say my eyes aren’t very good, so you may not have to.

There’s also a magnetic charger, of course with a USB channel, and there are also two straps. The latter was a pleasant surprise, in this price range it is not very common to get an absolutely affordable metal strap in addition to the usual silicone strap. Another good thing is that the silicone strap is not the hardness that scratches our wrists, it is not the softest I have seen so far, but it is much better.


 

NO.1 DT96 - External and paper form

The NO.1 DT96 is a completely average watch with a round housing. I’m pretty residual in that respect, for me the watch is round, but I know everyone doesn’t like that, so let everyone decide for themselves whether they like that shape or not.

However, it is perhaps beyond controversy that smart watches are not great, so wear unisex. The frame is made of aluminum and the bottom cover is made of plastic. The latter is not so bad because at least no one has to worry about metal allergies.

The DT96 has got a 1,3-inch display with a resolution of 360 x 360 pixels anyway. For this pixel density, Apple already says it is a Retina display, but let’s stay on the ground of realities, the DT96 has a simple IPS panel with enough brightness.

There are two sensors, a heart rate monitor and a gravity sensor. The battery has a capacity of 180 mAh, which is not very steel, but this hardware can still operate for 7-9 days under normal use, at least according to the factory data.

If you’re not angry, I’m not going to cover basic things like how to change the dial, I’ll also put the capabilities in a spreadsheet for the sake of simplicity.

I would like to highlight two things, one is that we have ten sports, the other is that although the watch has got some water resistance, swimming is not among the sports. This is because the water and dust resistance is not IP69, but IP67, which roughly means that a hand wash will still fit, possibly a quick shower, but I wouldn’t dive into it with it.

Here are the other features:

  •  24 hour heart rate monitor
  • Blood pressure meter
  • Blood oxygen monitor
  • odometer
  • Application notification
  • Vibrating alert
  • Caller ID display
  • Interchangeable dials
  •  Camera remote control
  • Music control
  • Weather forecast
  • FitCloudPro app

NO.1 DT96 - Operation

Honestly, I had less time than usual to test this watch. This is say there was no problem that the NO.1 DT96 point is exactly what you know like all other similar clocks.

It looks especially good, the assembly is also flawless. I don't cry because of the IPS display, I think it's also a great pleasure that for so much money IPS is already the base, not the LCD. The resolution is good and the brightness is normal. It can be used super in a little shade inside the building, but we don’t see much of it in sunlight. Let’s say in many cases cheap AMOLED isn’t enough either, so I don’t think that’s surprising.

I would argue with the 7-9 day run time described by the manufacturer, although the fact is that I may have pushed the clock more during the test than we might say on average. I think there will be someone who touches it below average, but the fact is that for me this operating time was 5 days rather than 7, I wouldn't have been close to 9 days.

We get two types of menus, the usual scroller and the horror called the Cellular Menu, which I can’t stand. Of course, this is also a category of tastes and slaps, I won’t force anyone to scroll down and down if they like the other one.

The accuracy of the sensors is usually a question. Well, luckily the manufacturer didn’t want to dazzle us e.g. by measuring blood pressure, so I have no bad experience in this regard. Heart rate measurement is a fairly old, mature technology, so it brings the accuracy you would expect from such a watch.

Blood oxygen levels are another story. Most tests describe it working well because it measures above 96 percent, which shows we are healthy, at least in that respect. At the same time, under 96 percent, blood oxygen is almost normal, and under 90, it is not.

Presumably the testers aren’t just about to die, so it’s only natural to see a value above 96 percent, but that’s exactly why a test like this probably never reveals whether the sensor is well measured or not.

So if someone has already had a similar clock in 96 and wasn’t doing well, indicate it because it would prove that the sensors are indeed capable of measuring.

That's about it. The dials are beautiful, they are digital and showy. The menu is the usual application, the application added to the watch is not unknown to me either, we have to download this for several types. It’s also average or maybe a little better than the average. He does not know Hungarian, but it is clear and clear.

I know this article hasn’t been any lengthy, but frankly, there weren’t too many things to write about. The DT96 is a completely average but well-assembled watch that meets today's expectations in essentially all respects. Of course in the price range you are competing in.

If you like round dial watches, want a smart watch that is comfortable to wear and doesn’t cost chandeliers, you can safely buy it, you get the right value for your money.
