Review: Super Cheap 15€ Smartwatch - HAMSWAN U80 U Watch - Joy della Vita

At first, I could not believe it, a (real) Smartwatch that costs only 15,99€. How is this even possible? As a former Apple Watch owner of the first second, I sold it again after about a month, I was hooked the second I discovered this super cheap Smartwatch on amazon. For sure I gave it a try and here I’m now answering if this 15€ Smartwatch is worth the buy.

Conclusion – my opinion on this cheap smartwatch

Again, what can you possibly do wrong with spending 15€ for a Gadget like this? With prices of several hundred euros for a ‘proper smartwatch’ you have to decide, do you really want a professional Watch or just a fun gadget? Back when I had my Apple Watch I really enjoyed to have my Plane Tickets on it (during boarding I only had to swipe my hand above the scanner and was able to board), something like this is not possible with this cheap smartwatch for 15€. There are specific apps for the Apple Watch, something the HAMSWAN U80 U Watch does not feature. You can only use the pre-installed Apps and Functions. For a beginner user, they are already very sufficient and personally I’m super happy with this 15€ Smartwatch. I ordered it only on amazon and it arrived the next day, perfect if you’re still looking for a cool Christmas present.

Otherwise, if you want a more advanced smartwatch, here some watches with more functions:
