There are a ton of smartwatches around, each with its own different set of functions. Chances are that you may have heard about the Cogito smartwatch. Although it is not as popular as others, it does have some great features backed up by an interesting design, hence offering a great deal.
Design
The watch’s main purpose is to look good, which is exactly what it managed to do. By offering a sporty look, the watch consist of two main parts: the analogue function that displays the time just like on traditional watches followed by the smart screen which can let you know about most of your notifications, while also displaying the time. In terms of its colours, the watch is available in 6 colours at this moment in time, and these are green, orange, purple, white, silver and black. The buttons that can be found on the sides of the device are round and jut out. The watch comes along with a variety of silicone straps that you’re free to choose from when purchasing it.
In terms of its size, by including the bezel, the Cogito Classic’s face measures 1.74 inches around and weights a total of 2.56 ounces which is fine considering the fact that it looks a bit bulky. With this in mind, the overall feel of the smartwatch is great and can definitely be used while doing sports as well.
Features
We are all aware of the fact that one of the most important aspects of a smartwatch is the features that it comes with. As this device also focuses quite a lot on design, it doesn’t include too many features, but the ones that it does work well. With this in mind, the watch will alert you of any notifications including SMS, mails, Skype, social media, WhatsApp, calendar, alarm clock, calls and more. The device also has a small screen which can show you the caller ID, or a part of the messages that you receive. Together with this, the small screen also shows the time if you’d like it to. The device also allows you to control the music that you’re playing on your device, and to snap pictures whenever you’d like.
Other than this, the smartwatch can also alert you in the case that you forget your phone behind and vice versa, which is great news.
Hardware
In terms of its hardware, the device doesn’t include anything too interesting, mostly due to the fact that it has a limited number of features. However, the processor that it has together with its other components make it incredibly quick, so rest assured, as the device will remain responsive at all times.
Durability and battery
As we’ve mentioned earlier, this is a sporty watch, so it is quite durable. After testing, the Cogito Classic turned out to be quite durable, as it easily resits to dust, wind, rain, fog and snow. Together with this, the device is also water resistant up to 100 metres, which means that you can wash your hands, take a shower and even swim with the watch without worrying about it breaking. However, make sure not to press any of the buttons while it is being exposed to water.
A big problem that many smartwatches have is an incredibly low battery life. However, this is not the case with the Cogito Classic, as the watch can last up to one year without needing to have its battery replaced. This also means that you don’t have the possibility to charge up the device.
Price
In terms of its price, the Cogito Classic is situated at the lower end of the scale, thus making it great for everyone who would like an affordable smartwatch with a couple of smart features, but also a great design. With this in mind, the price-quality balance is great, hence making this device a great choice for people from all around the world.
Based on everything that has been outlined so far, the Cogito Classic is sure not to disappoint and chances are that with a few future updates, the device will become even more popular.
