Today we decided to take a look at the No.1 G5 smartwatch that has been announced recently and it’s set to be launched on August 12.

However, I guess you need more info to conclude whether the No1. G5 deserves the price tag I’ve just mentioned. So let’s dig deeper and see what the most attractive features of this smartwatch are.
That’s not a secret the market is full of many manufacturers. Thus there is a tough competition. May be this is not that good for manufacturers as they have to share some piece of the pie with others, but competition has always been the best thing for customers, because it leaves only the most worthy products in the market and makes the manufacturers to offer the best price for their products. As for now, the No.1 G5 smartwatch can be described as a combination of mechanical watch appearance and sports design. On the other hand, it’s an interesting mix of wear industry experience and technology. So when wearing it you won’t feel any inconvenience and can get the most from a smartwatch.
The No.1 G5 sports a list of useful features. For example, it comes with a Heart Rate Monitor that is one of the most wanted devices made to measure user’s heart rate in real time or record the heart rate to study later or for another purpose. Another useful feature is the Pedometer function, a very useful device that counts each step a person takes due to the motion of the person’s hands or hips. It’s very useful for those who need to pass a certain distance per day. Thanks to PSG (PolySomnoGraphy) included into the watch, you can sleep calmly as the step will diagnose all the disorders.
