Noise's budget smartwatches deliver BT calling, heart-rate and SpO2 tracking, and multi-day battery at wallet-friendly prices. This edit spans seven picks - Twist Go, Vortex Plus, ColorFit Pulse 2 Max, Halo 2 Limited Edition, ColorFit Icon 2, NoiseFit Crew and Halo Limited Edition - covering LCD and AMOLED displays for everyday fitness and connectivity.
Even at entry prices, these watches cover the essentials: Bluetooth calling with a built-in mic and speaker, 24/7 heart-rate and SpO2 monitoring, sleep and step tracking, multiple sports modes, and customisable watch faces. Most add remote music and camera control, water resistance for splashes and rain, and around a week of battery.
Pick by panel and size. For punchy colours and deep blacks, choose an AMOLED model like the Vortex Plus, Halo Limited Edition or Halo 2 Limited Edition. If you want the largest screen for easy reading, the ColorFit Pulse 2 Max and ColorFit Icon 2 offer the biggest displays. Round-dial fans can consider the NoiseFit Crew.
Battery is a strong suit here. Most of these watches last around a week on a typical charge, with standby stretching considerably longer, and full charging takes roughly two hours. The ColorFit Pulse 2 Max leads the group with the longest rated runtime, making it a good pick if you dislike frequent charging.
All carry a water-resistance rating for everyday protection against sweat, rain and splashes. The Vortex Plus, ColorFit Pulse 2 Max and Halo Limited Edition hold the higher IP68 rating, while the Twist Go, Halo 2 Limited Edition and ColorFit Icon 2 carry IP67. None of them is designed for swimming, so remove them before pool sessions.
Yes, every watch in this range supports Bluetooth calling, letting you take and make calls from your wrist using the built-in mic and speaker. For voice control, the ColorFit Icon 2 stands out with a built-in AI voice assistant. The Twist Go and Halo models use your phone's assistant, while the Vortex Plus has no voice assistant.
The ColorFit Pulse 2 Max is the strongest all-rounder here. It pairs the group's largest 1.85-inch display with the longest rated battery life, an IP68 rating, Bluetooth calling, and remote music and camera control. For buyers who want the most features per rupee, it's the standout everyday pick in this collection.
The ColorFit Pulse 2 Max leads with a 1.85-inch screen, closely followed by the ColorFit Icon 2 at 1.8 inches - both LCD panels that make notifications, calls and stats easy to read at a glance. If you prefer a compact round face instead, the NoiseFit Crew and the Halo models offer a classic look.
For AMOLED, the Halo Limited Edition and Halo 2 Limited Edition both offer a sharp 1.43-inch round AMOLED screen, with the Halo 2 adding a rotating axe-cut bezel for a premium feel. The Vortex Plus provides a larger 1.46-inch AMOLED display, making it the pick if you want AMOLED colour on a bigger face.
The ColorFit Pulse 2 Max sits at the lowest confirmed price in this collection while still offering a large display, IP68 rating and long battery life, making it excellent value. The Twist Go, Vortex Plus, ColorFit Icon 2 and NoiseFit Crew are also positioned as affordable everyday options within the budget range.
No. None of the watches in this budget collection has built-in GPS. Instead, they rely on your connected smartphone's GPS for location and route data during outdoor workouts. If standalone GPS is essential for running or cycling without your phone, you'll need to look at Noise's higher-tier models rather than these budget picks.
No. While every watch here resists sweat, rain and splashes thanks to its IP67 or IP68 rating, none is rated for swimming. Avoid submerging them in pools, and keep them away from hot water, saunas and salt water, which can damage the device and strap. Dry the watch if it gets wet.
All seven support Bluetooth calling with a built-in mic and speaker, so any of them works for wrist-based calls. For the easiest experience, the larger screens of the ColorFit Pulse 2 Max and ColorFit Icon 2 make dialling and reading caller details simpler, and the Icon 2 adds an AI voice assistant for hands-free commands.
