Btalk 4 Pro: Budget AMOLED smartwatch with 14 days of battery life opens for pre-order

The Zeblaze Btalk 4 Pro is a new budget smartwatch that is now available for pre-order via direct import. Pricing starts at around $30, with shipping to the US adding at least another $4. While the Btalk 4 Pro is strictly an entry-level wearable, it still covers many core smartwatch features.

The watch sports a circular 1.43-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels and a peak brightness of up to 1,000 nits, according to the manufacturer. For context: While still generally affordable, pricier alternatives like the Amazfit Active 2 (on Amazon) achieve significantly higher brightness levels in our testing. In addition to touchscreen controls, the Btalk 4 Pro features a rotating crown for UI navigation.

Standard smartwatch features are on board, including smartphone notifications. However, standalone usability for workouts is limited: The watch lacks built-in GNSS, meaning it cannot track outdoor runs or cycling routes without a paired smartphone. Nevertheless, the optical sensor array monitors heart rate and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), complemented by sleep tracking. Rated to IP68 standards, the Btalk 4 Pro is protected against dust and water splashes but is not suitable for swimming. Battery life is rated at up to 14 days under typical usage.
