This watch brigs us back to the rectangular designs that DIZO seems to favor. It has a 1.8” LCD (240 x 286px) with 2.5D curved glass (and slightly higher brightness of 550 nits). Despite weighing nearly the same (58g vs. 61.3g) and having the almost the same battery capacity (260mAh vs. 300mAh) compared to the Watch R Talk, the battery life is noticeably shorter.
This means 7 days of regular usage
(without calling) and only 2 days with calling. So, if you’re looking at the
DIZO Watch D Talk for its Bluetooth calling feature (which you certainly are),
you might want to consider the round watch instead.
We’ll circle back to the features, but we
need to talk pricing to keep things in context – the MSRP is ₹ 4,000 (₹ 1,000
less than the round watch) and will become available on Flipkart on September
16 for ₹ 2,800 (US$ 35/€ 35). At this price we can’t be too demanding, but the R
model doesn’t cost much more and it does offer a significant upgrade on
hardware.
The Watch D Talk also offers 150+ watch
faces and 120+ sports modes. There is heart rate and SpO2 monitoring, sleep and
menstrual period tracking, but no onboard GPS. The watch has a metal frame, but
the glass isn’t strengthened. It is also sweat and shower resistant, but not
waterproof. It uses 22mm silicone straps and will be available in Classic
Black, Silver Grey and Light Green.
