So here is a straightforward guide to the top 3 men’s smartwatches under ₹5,000 in 2025 which also give you the most for your money too.

Let’s dive in!

1. NoiseFit Core – Best Overall Value

Price: Approx. 4,000 to 4,500

    Why I Like It: NoiseFit Core is a good choice if you are looking for a smartwatch that does all basic things right; it feels more like a fitness tracker, but well worth the price.

The watch has a bright color display with heart rate, SpO2 (oxygen level), and sleep monitoring. What surprised me is how smooth the touchscreen is, and how simple the user interface is. It has a sporty design and looks nice on the wrist.

When I tested this watch on morning walks, the step count and heart rate were mostly accurate, battery life was about 1 week with moderate use which is exceptional for this price range.

You get notifications for calls, messages, and apps all on your wrist so you do not need to pull out your phone all the time.

Pros:

• Affordable with decent build quality.
• Decent health tracking.
• Decent battery life (up to 7 days).

Cons:

• No GPS.
• Basic app ecosystem.
  

2. Boat Xtend Smartwatch - Fashionable and Functional

Price: ≈ ₹4,500

    Why I chose it: Boat has recently gained a foothold in India, and the Xtend watch model has an excellent balance of fashion and functionality.

The Xtend has a large colour display that is bright and can be read easily, even in sunlight. It has features such as heart rate monitor, SpO2, stress tracking and sleep tracking. It even has Alexa voice assistant support which is really useful if you just want to ask a few questions, or to control smart devices.

I found the Boat Xtend to be very comfortable to wear throughout the day, for work and work outs. The watch faces can be personalized to change the way it looks, based on your mood.

It has a decent battery life, around 4 - 5 days, which is relatively good for daily wear-for any active lifestyle.

Pros:

• Voice assistant support (Alexa)
• Large, colour display
• Decent features for fitness and health

Cons:

• A little steep price but still within budget
• No built-in GPS
  
  
  

3. Fire-Boltt Ninja 3 Max – Best Battery Life

Cost: About ₹3,500 – ₹4,000

    What I like: If you hate charging your watch every day, then this is for you!

The Fire-Boltt Ninja 3 Max, has one of the biggest batteries that will last for at least 10 days on a single charge. It boasts a 1.8-inch big display, and the watch is bright and easy to read. The device has heart-rate monitoring, SpO2, sleep monitoring, multiple sports modes, and a whole bunch of other features.

I used this watch mainly for my evening jogs, and it tracked my steps, and calories burned reasonably well. Depending on what activity you choose the device has a suitable sports mode. The watch also allows for notifications from your phone so you don’t have to carry your phone everywhere you go. This is also true for music as well; you can mess around and control your phone’s music through the Ninja 3 Max while running or just to save some battery.

Overall the design is basic, but it is very solid and practical. It looks good and isn’t flimsy on you.

Pros:

• Great battery life (10 days)
• Big display
• Multiple sports modes

Cons:

• No voice assistant
• Very basic notification support
