In the realm of GPS watches, a rugged design typically commands a higher price tag – like Garmin’s. However, boAt has introduced its Valour watch with built-in GPS, 15-day battery life, and more, for just Rs 5,999. As such, GPS watches utilise satellite technology to track location, distance, speed, and elevation during activities like running, hiking, and cycling.
The Valour Watch 1 GPS is built for outdoor activities and its auto activity detection is a big plus; whether you’re hiking, walking, running, or cycling, it accurately logs your route, distance, and speed via its 360 degree Motion Mapping & in-built accelerometer & gyroscope. The 1.43-inch AMOLED touchscreen comes protected with Gorilla Glass, resisting scratches and impacts while keeping your health stats sharp and visible – even under bright sunlight.
Features of boAt Valour Watch 1 GPS
The watch is powered by a high-performance X2 processor. It delivers a premium, next-generation sports watch experience. It opens menus faster, tracks workouts without lag, and keeps GPS navigation smooth – even when you’re switching between multiple features during intense activity.
Professional-grade metrics available on the watch
Valour Watch 1 GPS brings professional-grade metrics like VO2 Max (maximum oxygen uptake) and HRV (heart rate variability) to your wrist. After a 20-minute jog or run, check your VO2 Max to see how your stamina is building, while HRV shows how well your body is recovering based on heart rhythm pattern.
Valour Watch 1 GPS is rated 3 ATM (30 meters), making it suitable for both pool and open-water swim tracking. The dedicated swimming mode records total strokes, lap count, and average pace – helping you track every movement in the water. It even uses AI to study your daily patterns and send timely health nudges – reminders to move, hydrate, or rest when your body needs it.
