These watches can also function as an activity tracker, which is currently the most common use of smartwatches. The watches are designed to rugged and water-resistant.
An edition of Pro Trek Smart Outdoor Watch, WSD-F20 was launched earlier this year. The upcoming edition and the previous edition are totally identical except for their color and some minor distinctions. The newest edition does not have a stainless buckle or grips for easier use with gloves.
The original edition of Pro Trek turned out to be a great product for hikers, however, it fell short for various other outdoor activities such as cycling. This year’s model will be addressing all these shortcomings of the previous editions.
