Homegrown earwear and wearables brand boAt on Wednesday
launched an affordable smartwatch called
Xtend that offers seven-day battery life, over 50 Watch faces, heart rate, SPO2
and sleep monitoring.
The boAt Xtend
is available at an introductory price of Rs 2,999 with a one-year warranty on

the company said in a statement.
The smartwatch comes with
built-in Alexa voice assistant.
"We are thrilled to introduce a smartwatch with
built-in Alexa which adds a whole new dimension and capabilities to the
smartwatch category as whole," said Aman Gupta, Co-Founder, boAt.
The audio brand in January raised approximately $100 million (over
Rs 731 crore) from an affiliate of Warburg Pincus, a leading global private
equity fund, towards ramping up manufacturing and go global.
The significant investment will enable boAt, that has emerged as
the leading brand in India's true wireless stereo (TWS) market, further fortify
its leading market position while widening its R&D capabilities and product
portfolio.
The company said that boAt XTEND smartwatch comes with onboard
sensors and health monitors such as stress monitor, SPo2 monitor, heart-rate
monitor, step counter, sleep monitor as well as a daily activity tracker.
The device features a bright LCD display for great outdoor
visibility. It sports a 1.69-inch square 'capacitive display' for a smooth
experience.
Xtend comes in Olive Green, Sandy Cream, Pitch Black and Deep Blue
colours.
The smartwatch also comes with notification alerts for calls,
texts, alarms, hydration as well as third-party social media apps.
boAt Xtend packs a 300mAh battery to power through for up to a
week on a single full charge.
A 5ATM water resistance allows the watch to survive a depth of up
to 50 metres for 30 minutes, the company said.
